Beautiful hot weather...perfect time for ...Cooking Camp!
The girls came up and ...they are ready for some cooking!
Muffins were first on the agenda. They were yummy. We took some to a dear homebound friend. She was grateful. She is also an artist. My girls were very impressed. When we came home...they wanted to paint!
We went out to the herb garden and picked us some fragrent herbs to make our own herb vinegar. They liked doing this...but were not sure if they would ever use it. You know vinegar is g-r-o-c-e when you are a kid!
We made pizza dough ... the real kind. Yeast, kneading, rise time, they loved this. Their Aunt Kee Kee came over and ask if they wanted to go to the pool...hmmmm....really...of course. Pool over cooking any day!...Can I come too? Nope....I stayed home and made the pizza! (And took a little rest...yep Bella is tired!)
I showed them how to use the grater. The old fashion kind. No electric power to operate this little gadget. Our youngest grand found out what happens when you get your knuckles to close.....some lessons hurt a little!
Swimmers are home....here is one of the pizzas. Two were made. The other one was not really picture material....maybe Bella got in to big of a hurry to get it finished so that she could.....rest....!
Sweet brother-n-law and sis grew watermelons in their garden. So....we had watermelon! I love having the kids around. A house feels like a home when there is kid noise inside. I love the running in the house, toys strolled everywhere, dirty clothes in the bathroom and always drink cups just about everywhere. I look at them and realize....this is my heritage....our future belongs in their hands. Maybe next I'll have Bella's Clean the House Camp....na....no fun in that! Maybe we'll have a sewing camp....they would love that!
Blessings from out here in the pasture to all the little ones .. and blessings to you too!
