It was just pouring Last Sunday! So my sis tells me, eh...look after my kid? i wanna sleep. Me thinks...well this stinks.WHAT DO YOU DO WITH KIDS? So i decided to do what my mum and i used to do when i came home from school eons ago whenever it rained. And that was, to bake. Many life lessons were learnt during these sessions.
my mother's kitchen is the ABSOLUTE best place to cook. it may not have any shiny, high standard cookware but it has an oven and everything and anything needed to bake at any given time.
The Chefs
Here's my sous chef. look at the intesity!

Look who couldn't wait!
So right, when you cook with kids, this is the scene
Nicky:i wanna do!
Alexis:gimme!
Nicky:you do later! i do first.
all while having 4 hands on one bowl being pushed back and forth so 80% goes into the bowl and 20% ends up on the floor...and this is the result. yes..that was my many many small cookies fused into one big ass one.
Never fear, it just had a lack of flour!
See, its now in pieces.ya, so like one of the kiddos had to go pee pee and this is the result...burnt cookies. Improving...
Finally, the smell and taste of sweet success! So you see, failure isn't the end of everything. They were all from the same batch of cookie dough...but with different results. Success is nothing, without learning from failure.
Anyhow, the cookies were snapped up in secs, flat, burnt and perfect. Who enjoyed my cookies best??? my smallest food critic.
