Yep, every time I turned around she snuck in a few more ingredients. It gets a little more sticky when she puts a napkin or butter wrapper or plastic baggy (or all manner of treasures she finds on the counter) into some wet ingredients. Or maybe she'll take it upon herself to add all the utensil from the utensil canister if left alone long enough. Thankfully she's only just begun doing that trick before I've caught her.
I have noticed her progress in the kitchen since spending so much time baking with me. She has learned, when the stirring begins to get boring, to add ingred. as i just mentioned... and she has also learned that the things she stirs are edible and often taste quite good. Although she has been known to continue tasting tiny pinches of a mixture containing nothing but flour,soda,salt,and wheatbran.
Notice she has 2 beaters. She kept licking one and then the other, back and forth. It was funny to watch her.
Licking these small beaters kept her busy for quite a while.
Mmmm!
Bleah, I'm beginning to feel queasy after all that chocolate...
got any buckets handy mom?
HaHa! Just kidding!!! :)
Okay lets get back to business here...
What is this horrible looking stuff that I have been told to stir?
She began stirring more and more violently, (and the stuff became increasing less appealing) until I finally had to tell her "Whoa there baby, slow down! You are making a big mess!"
(Notice the growing amount of batter spread hither and yon.)
(I also just had the thought that this might make a good post pic next time i have the flu. haha)
Back to the subject at hand... All I got for my attempts to reign in my wild child was this little bit of attitude.
Leave me aloone mom...I'm busy helping you.
PS. These muffins tasted much better than the batter looks. :P
Sorry the spacing and wording is all funky. I didn't have time to figure out how to fix it.

Those were delicious muffins but especially those snicker truffels! Oh dear, cause you can't eat just one. Thanks for helping your Mommy bake all those yummy things Kate. Hope we get to see you all again before too long.
She's so cute! :-) And, I dare you to post that picture next time you have the flu. Hee hee! I would find it hilarious! I may have snorted my coffee right up my nose when I read that part of your post. :-)
