snack day

it was our turn to bring snacks to montessori the other day...i tried to be so good and make apple raisin muffins...the first (tester) batch turned out great. the second batch was awful! i don't know what happened. good thing that i bought some back up raisin bread! we also had to bring oranges, so i bought mm and g's favorite clementine's. these are the best oranges and apparently you can only get them around christmas time. anyway, they are small, sweet and easy to peel...unless you are peeling enough for the whole class! yikes!


grady-bug was really cute. after we ate dinner, i asked the kids if they wanted to help mommy make muffins. usually when we are cooking, mm always wants to help and grady comes in and out of the kitchen...mm was helping me measure and mix everything together when grady comes walking into the kitchen so proud...he had taken the tester muffins that i made the night before and squeezed them out of their wrappers, put them on a toy cookie sheet and put them in mm's little stove. i couldn't believe it! bobby, emeril, tyler, or jamie don't have anything on my muffin man!

Oh, they are so cute! You could just eat them up. It is never too early to start learning how to cook. Also I have to admit I am a blurker on your blog. Not after today though!

Oh Grady Bug! You are so smart! MM is going to be the hit of the week with her snack time goodies!

We must think of a clever name for his cooking show.....Do You Know the Muffin Man? It is so cool when they want to help Mommy! I'm so proud that you made your treats - I forgot this morning, and has to enlist the help of the Publix Bakery (boooo)
