How do they know?

I swear it is intuitive that kids know how to eat an Oreo. Kaitlyn and Madelyn both went for the twist the first time we gave them an Oreo. It cracks me up that they know the yummy goodness hiding in between the two chocolate cookie layers. Kaitlyn eats the whole cookie, while Madelyn aims for the frosting and sometimes the cookie.



Kaitlyn and I still do kitchen activities together. Recently we made blueberry pastry 'purses'. Kaitlyn did a lot of the work. It's amazing to look at the pictures and see how much she can help in the kitchen now.

Princess Kaitlyn uses the pastry cutter to create nine squares for our purses.

Kaitlyn measured the blueberries and sugar by herself while mommy added the lemon juice and zest.

After we stuffed each purse, Kaitlyn brushed the egg wash all over each one.

After the purses cooled, Princess Kaitlyn piped a orange flavored glaze on top of each one.
