Applesauce!

My little chef made me sign her up for 6 more weeks of cooking class! Man, does she love to do it and it has been lots of fun. She is a night owl so early morning wake-ups are NOT her thing. We have to leave the house no later then 8:30 to make it to class by 9 a.m. She will usually ask for 5 more minutes before she gets up but once I tell her "cooking class day" she decides right away if she is taking a bath or a shower and what she wants to eat for breakfast! This class we are going to be making applesauce! We also invited the twins to come and play with us too! After we went to the apple farm in San Luis Obispo, Savannah has had a thing for apples. She loves to eat them...just like any fruit but here was a new way to have some!
Using the chopped to make the apples smaller. First they had cored and peeled them. Cooking class is way braver then I am! I would probably not let her use the chopper or the apple peeler but since they let her use it.....I have NO excuse now not to let her at it!

These are the chopped and cooked up apples! Next the kids each got a turn using the hand mixer to make it more delicious and less chunky! Another one of those things I have not let Savannah use in the kitchen!

They served it up with some shortbread cookies that were oh so yummy....Savannah wanted nothing to do with the cookies even after Ro and Ree told her they were GOOD! A fun time was had by all and I think cooking class will remain a hit for a while. I WILL be doing more cooking at home when I am off work and I'm sure to have a helpful volunteer!

Sitting and saying good bye to her buddies! These girls have been friends since the Gymboree days and they were only 1!! They are 6 days apart in age and have the best time playing and laughing together!
