Kids Can Cook

Thursday night has a new tradition……invented by mom and dad.

They get to plan, shop for and prepare the family meal on Thursday nights.

Last week they made Pad Thai.

Even the little ones contributed by squeezing some fresh lime.

They even get the honor of washing all the dishes while mom and dad kick back.

Frying up some oyster po’ boys is on the menu this week. Yum.

They really had fun, and I think it is so important for them to learn how to cook good food and understand the work that goes into the meals prepared for them.

**always, always supervise your kids around boiling water and hot grease. It just takes an instant for a pot to flip over and spill on the little ones.
