Baking with Grandma

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This week has turned out pretty well after all, ever since my aunt showed up with my new little cousin, Holly. I feel kind of bad though because I had promised to make cookies with Millie and I’ve just been really busy.

But today our grandma announced that it was baking day and that she and Millie and I would be busy all day, making yummy treats for the family. Grandma pulled this long list of cookies and cupcakes out of the pocket of her apron. She said first things first and so we all piled into the car and headed over to the W Shop to pick up all the supplies we would need for our goodies. I kind of missed being with little Holly, but when we got to the W Shop Millie and I played a great game. She sat in the seat of the shopping cart and said that she was one of Santakinz’s helpers and that I was a reindeer who had to make the cart go. Then we had to travel around the ‘workshop’ (or W Shop,) collecting parcels to deliver on Christmas Eve. It was such a fun game but I was kind of tired from steering all over the shop.

When we got home, Grandma gave us each a new apron that she had sewn. They looked just like hers only smaller! I got to help mix the ingredients, and Millie is an expert cookie cutter, so it was her job to cut out the shapes and put them onto the baking sheets. Then Grandma put the cookies in the oven. They smelled so good!

Every time we finished one batch of treats, Grandma would let us have a little break and enjoy some of our goodies with a glass of milk while she tidied. But as soon as we were done, she said ‘Right! Back to work, girls!’ and we would be onto the next recipe.

The best part? Grandma said Robby and Bobby had to stay out of the kitchen until we were done or no treats for them.
