Aug. 23 - Cooking with Rhia & Iain I

Rhia and Iain and I spent a whole day cooking our hearts out! First, we prepared hard boiled eggs.




Then we prepared an angel food cake.




Then we cut onions for the enchilada casserole.







Opening cans proved to be more of an adventure than I would have thought! They were both so interested in learning how to open a can! What is wrong with this cooking lesson? ;-)

July 29 - Rhia and Teagan Bake III

Rhia sprinkled topping on the blueberry muffins.




Rhia helped Teagan and made the frosting for Teagan's cup cakes.




The girls seemed pleased with the results of their baking.




And after the girls left, this is what my kitchen looked like!

Kyle decided that he wanted to make a yellow cake with chocolate frosting.










All went well and I took Kyle, Iain and their cakes to their home. They left shortly thereafter for karate and while they were gone, Fiona the dog found Kyle's cake and decided that it looked VERY GOOD indeed. Kyle returned to find tell tale paw prints in his cake which can be seen in this photo! So, Kyle enjoyed a bit of Iain's cake and the family had to clean up after the dog who ate chocolate! Poor Kyle! I do not feel sorry for Fiona! She deserved to be sick!!!
