Chef Sean

practicing measuring the flour
getting his turn to add the yeast

it's fun to bang your hands on the table


We headed to Young Chef's Academy with the MOMS club this morning. I told Sean that he would be making cookies and pizza. Sean has made cookies with me at home and enjoys using the cookie cutter. However, today, he got to mix and add ingredients. The Chefs would call each child up for their turn to add ingredients to the flour. Sean loved it. However, he wanted every turn to be his turn. He sat on the stool for a little bit and then slowly lost interest. He would then want me to hold him. Sean isn't usually this clingy, so that was a little surprising.
He did love kneading the dough for the pizza and playing with the flour.
Sean is not a pizza eater, so I didn't think he would mind the ingredients, but he insisted "no sauce" on the pizza. Instead, the Chef put on olive oil and we put lots of cheese on it. I wound up eating the pizza and Sean ate the cookies. He really loved slicing the pizza. He was very interactive with the Chef and asked her a lot of questions. Afterwards, we brought Kenny some cookies at his office.
