Sunday

The kids acutally slept till about 7, which was good - it constitutes a lie-in for them I suspect!

I started the morning by teaching the twins how to make eggy bread (aka French Toast) as they adore it. Both kids are quite good at breaking eggs, but don't quite have the "whisking" technique right yet.

I got the kids, one at a time, to put a knob of marge into the frying pan, turn on the gas and wait for the sizzle. I got them to practice the frying pan shuffle to make their eggy bread move, and then with the fish slice, they turned it over. Martha has a bit more skill than Leo in this, whose slice of eggy bread refused to flip :-)

I grilled some bacon, and the end result was two full happy kids, having almost cooked all of their own breakfasts!

Yesterday I purchased 2 large bags of carrots.. gave one to Thomas, and decided to turn some of my bag full into carrot cake.

Imagine the scene.. 3 smallish kids. one grater on a plate and a carrot each!

The end result was a lovely cake!

gotta dash.. lunch break over..
