I stayed in the kitchen, but he did all the recipe reading, measuring, stirring, etc. by himself. I was impressed because I haven't done much cooking instruction with him.
And then he was very proud to dish up little bowls of pudding the next afternoon.
I must add that Genevieve was also bit with the cooking bug that same day; she made a lemonade "sirup" from my vintage Joy of Cooking. (Recipe here - Genevieve used a lemon, a lime, and some bottled lemon juice). It's delicious and very convenient to have in the fridge. I predict the lemonade syrup will be a staple this summer, and the big girl can make it all by herself.

Mmmm...that drink sounds good! There are some members of my family (who shall remain anonymous!) that don't like plain water. Gasp! I just might have to make this...or better yet, have Jenna make it this summer!
Well done Ben! It's amazing what they pick up when you don't think they're really paying attention, isn't it?
Well done, Ben!! I am impressed, and inspired to let Finn do some cooking this summer.
Way to go, Ben!
Look at your kids go! Excellent. And the "sirip"? I am going to have to make some to have in my fridge for a summer treat. Thanks for sharing.
