Home Ec or Cooking 101

Ainsley is earning how to cook as well. Each week she prepares one whole meal for us to eat. It ties in with our story for the week and is a great way to help her with hand-eye coordination and math. Here we are with all of our ingredients.

We made Oat Peanut Butter cookies for our dessert this week. Here's Ainsley scooping the cookies. Her hands were exhausted by the time she was done. She didn't realize how hard it was to make 3 dozen cookies. It really made her appreciate the 100 + cookies our friend made for a Kansas City meal program. She used Ainsley's recipe and they were a hit.
