He woke up determined to make pancakes for breakfast (even though he is, without fail, the last person up).
I'm not a big fan of big-production breakfasts, but he learned a lot doing this. Hopefully it won't be long before I have to have zero involvement (I already made him do all the dishes, lol). Though I preach involving the kids in household tasks, in reality I would much rather just do it quickly and efficiently. But, ultimately, if I can have three or four meal-preparers in the house, it's far more likely we'll eat in instead of going out because I'm too tired or busy to cook.
They were a big hit--enjoyed by all (except mom, who is determined to go no-carb until she gets the holiday weight off).
they look so yummy ... light and fluffy! (and i don't even like pancakes normally.)
ReplyDeleteI agree! Getting the kids involved is a great idea. Not only does it teach them life skills but also gives us a break. Shaylan knows how to make several things. Liam can also put together things like grilled cheese and opening a can of Bernios and heating it up.
