Can I help?

I have really enjoyed working on improving my homemaking skills, including cooking during the 3 years that we have lived in our home. It has been a great adventure navigating my way through an enourmous amount recipes available online. I have found a recipe for a homemade apple pie that is AWESOME. I had never made a homemade pie before this recipe, so I was excited that it was a winner the first time around. I had purchased some cheap bulk apples from the Farmer's Market and prepared the filling a few months ago and froze them.

As soon as I start trying to put together ANYTHING in the kitchen, Elijah and Justus are at my side, "Can I help?" ,"No, I want to help." , "No, it's my turn." so on and so on. I have been trying to allow them turns at helping with different things. I would NEVER want to discourage help in the kitchen and it is such great one on one time.

Well, it was Elijah's turn to help. He was so proud at dinner when everyone thanked him for the fabulous pie.

Love,

Amy
