Cooking Class

We have been into some serious cooking around here.  While cooking and baking (with helpers) is something we/I do a lot of, over the past few weeks it has been in the form of a role reversal.  I decided that I was going to "teach" cooking for some of our lessons which meant that they picked the recipes, they read as much of the recipe as they could (in Grace's case at least), and then they did all of the measuring/mixing/cooking, while I merely stood by as the assistant.  What better way to have fun AND learn reading and math.  Last week Grace made blueberry muffins and Jackson made cornbread.  Later in the week we made these homemade tortilla shells which made our enchiladas absolutely amazing.  This week we made soup- Grace creme of broccoli and Jackson clam chowder.  Sounds like crackers is going to be our next endeavor.
