Cooking with Peyton

A couple days ago, Peyton and I made Rice Krispie Treats. She had lots of fun moving the Rice Krispies back and forth between the measuring cup and mixing bowl. She also enjoyed sneaking some marshmallows or a mouthful of cereal when I wasn't looking! (I guess I've grown that mother's pair of eyes in the back of my head.)

Here she is stirring the cereal into the melted marshmallows. Look at her little kid-sized oven mit.

They were good. The three of us on solid food ate the whole pan in two days. This was a good activity for Peyton, because it's safe and fun to eat the ingredients, she can do just about every step, and it's not too hard to clean up Rice Krispies from the floor. (I actually just let Roxy take care of that for me.)
