Cooking

Brynleigh’s Grandmother (Sarah’s mom) has been an elementary school teacher/administrator for…oh, it must be getting close to 30 years. She’s amazing with kids – a seemingly limitless supply of energy and creative activity ideas.

We went to visit Grandmother over the Christmas holidays, and one morning, Ben and I got up to find Miss B with her serious face on, hard at work in the kitchen, “cooking” like grownups do. Grandmother had pulled a step stool right up to the counter, and Brynleigh was just tall enough to stand on the top step and pour various herbs and powdery substances into a bowl before mixing them with a big wooden spoon.

If we’d eaten it, I’m sure the flour/baking soda/Chinese five spice concoction would have been delicious. 🙂
