Making Dinner

Max cut up ALL the broccoli, all by himself...
after first rushing to put on his toque and apron, of course.
He's a professional.

Not to be left out, Ben made soup out of dry cat food and the cat's water bowl,
stirred carefully with his xylophone mallets.*

While I made mini banana-chocolate chip muffings, the boys played with big bowls of cornstarch and water for both boys to play in.
Max quickly lost interest and wanted to help me stir things,
but Ben enjoyed dumping the stuff.

* Bonus points if you can find the xylophone mallets my gingerbread house post. Apparently these are crucial cooking implements, at least for Ben.
