Eggcitement in the Kitchen.


Yesterday was a school day for Gabriella so a hearty breakfast was very important. However, instead of mommy making the breakfast she did it herself.  Gabriella made her own eggs.  She received an adorable little skillet as a birthday gift and she was anxious to put it to good use. We only had one broken egg during the preparing of breakfast.  The break did happen in dramatic fashion, it slipped out of her hand, bounced off the trash can and exploded when it hit the floor. We both froze staring at the mess on the floor then I cleaned it up, assuring her that messes happen all the time. She was relieved that she wasn't in trouble and went on breaking the other eggs and scrambling them. Then the moment of truth, the heating of the butter and the stirring of the eggs over a hot stove. She performed wonderfully and the eggs were delicious.  I look forward to more cooking lessons in the near future.
