Dreaming...

Thanks to Sarah, who recommended The River Cottage Family Cookbook. I haven't been able to stop dreaming about it and it will be joining our unschooling adventures very soon (as will some child sized cooking tools from Montessori Services.)51serHpFJCL._SS500_

Lemonade!

Blue and I made lemonade this afternoon... Lemonade1sm Our first batch of the year was tried out yesterday and was so delicious we drank the entire pitcher. I'm making it my mission to spend a couple of days in the kitchen with her each week, cooking. She adores making "concoctions" but is starting to have an appreciation for the kind you can actually consume. This is, most likely, thanks to her Papa who cooks pancakes with her every weekend. Lemonade3sm Boil 1 C. of sugar & 1 C. of water for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Hand squeeze 1 C. of lemon juice. After sugar/water mixture cools down a bit add lemon juice and stir well. Transfer to pitcher and add water to taste. We love to add some ice cubes to cool it down quicker!rrently our favorite children's cookbooks are... •Fanny At Chez Panisse by Alice Waters •Kids Cook 1-2-3 by Rozanne Gold •Look And Cook by Tina Davis •Honest Pretzels by Molly Katzen
