We also made another batch of zucchini bread to freeze. My grandma recently gave me this tool for the kitchen. I love it because it's L1 friendly. There's so much more he can do since he doesn't risk shredding his fingers along with the food.
"Look, mom, it's growing!" I'm no teacher, but it sure seems he learns a lot in many different subjects by helping in the kitchen.
Next up was a batch of pickles. No canning here. We're trying fermented half-sours. The method doesn't even use a hot brine so it should yield crispy pickles! Here's Mr. Serious getting to work.
I also finally conquered that darn pie. This is one of Adam's favorite desserts and for some reason mine never set up. This one did, so hopefully I've finally got THE recipe that works for me, and my stove that takes SO long to boil everything.
Last week I got a bag of baby carrots for free with a coupon. None of us are fans of raw carrots so we made a batch of honey glazed carrots to freeze. Not a lot, but once I know they work I can get more next time. The boys just gobble those up. We also did a small batch of freezer pickles with the cucumbers we had left.
We also got grape jelly, a crock pot of spaghetti sauce and a batch of breakfast burritos made.
So where is L2 during all of this!?!?
He patiently sits right here enjoying the action. I like to think he's dreaming of the day when he can help.
But right now he loves being the watchful and willing taste-tester.
You can't sneak a bite past this one, he'll call ya on it!
