Nice Cooking Dress

Today...all day...saw more Christmas baking at our house.  Last year Lucas was interested in learning how to make certain things for the holiday, this year he's more into the eating so it was Eli's turn to create.

We made 3 different kinds of cookies, 2 candies, a cake and dipped pretzels.  Eli was in charge of the pretzels, he helped with other things but the pretzels were his domain.  He was quite nervous on getting just the right amount of dip on each pretzel stick.

The first two came out without incident...the third, he was so confident he forgot to pick up the pretzel and just stuck his fingers in the chocolate dip.  He was soooo not happy.  After being reassured that we had more chocolate he washed up and tried again.   Two boxes later I think we have enough dipped pretzels for quite sometime.

As he was finishing up (not necessarily cleaning up) he looks over at Rachel who is now on her 2nd recipe of cookies and gives this parting shout out,  "Hey Rach!  Nice cooking dress!"   Guess we forgot to introduce and explain the word "apron."
