Julia, we went to the bookstore over the weekend. You had been talking about buying a cook book for a couple of days. You know, so you could read the recipes, and cook the recipes, and learn to be a princess. When we got to the store, you couldn't decide on the Princess Cookbook or the Fairy Cookbook....so you bought both!
When we got back, you and I ventured out on making the first recipe: Princess Fairy Marshmallow Pops.
There were three ingredients: marshmallows, sprinkles, and icing.
We didn't have any icing, so we made our own. That had like 5 ingredients: powdered sugar, butter, milk, vanilla, and a little bit of salt.
You and I worked as a team from top to bottom on the recipe.
You mixed the icing, added the food coloring, did all the prepwork and sprinkling of sprinkles...
And...man oh man... did they look good!
You, me, and Aidan did a LOT of taste testing along the way. The sugar intake probably lent themselves to the super smiles.
...and the yummy taste led to a LOT more taste-testing.
We froze the marshmallows, and waited for EVER (7 minutes).
Finally, when we sat down to taste, I decided to video the tasting.
The verdict: "These are Sweet. TOO sweet. Can I have another?"
THEN, after seeing the video, you decided you wanted to make an entire Cooking Show! So we ret-conned some footage, and you and your brother stickily hovered over my shoulder as you guided the creative edit of the video, including musical choice and sound effects.
The video turned out super sweet!
I hope this week goes by fast so we can get on to the next cooking lesson, sweet treat, and video!
