A bit of kitchen independence
By Veronique Christensen — Friday, December 28th, 2007
Maggie has discovered the simple joy of being able to prepare her own snacks lately, and will happily make enough for her brothers and anyone else who happens to be around, too. Her favorite concoction to make is Fruit Smoothies. She’ll toss whatever fruit we have on hand (fresh or frozen) into the blender, add a bit of ice and either fruit juice or a dollop of yogurt and hit the "blend" button. Dee-lish!
Makes this Momma so proud to see her take charge of the kitchen. It really does.
That’s so great. Mine haven’t ventured into smoothie making, but they will make toast, popcorn and sandwiches. Oh…and they will snag kiwis and other fruit if I leave them out in a bowl.
