le cordon bleu

I should enroll Ryan....she has really taken to this 'cooking' thing and I now find her peppering her speech with "teaspoon", "pinch of salt", "herbs".   All that Giada is starting to pay off.
When I cook, I give her my scraps and she whips up her own creations....tasting along the way.
Side note...but is it just me or has Kraft Mac and Cheese not tasted the same for about the last year or so? I think it tastes disgusting and hello? We're talking Mac and Cheese here - how is that possible? Anyway, I now prefer to make my own but I had a few boxes leftover in the pantry so I let the girls keep their own stash of noodles to 'play' with. They love it. Cleanup is relatively easy on those occasions when Reese spills her bowl ALL over the floor.
She uses her knife and the cutting (upside down of course) melts my heart - such thought and precision in that head of hers.
Adding a 'pinch' of her 'herbs'
The seriousness kills me

Quite possibly the cutest thing ever. I love the knife work the most.

(And I totally agree about the Kraft mac and cheese. I doctored the last of ours up with any other cheeses we had on hand. I switched over to the Trader Joe's brand, but I still doctor that as well. Don't ask me why I don't just give up and do it from scratch.)
