Mmmmm...chocolate!

Logan has really started to love helping in the kitchen.  He's a pro at adding ingredients (even if they do end up more on the counter than in the mixing bowl!) and stirring batter.  I don't do a whole lot of involved cooking, but we do a fair amount of baking and usually Logan is a superstar helper.  As the weather turns cold, I think we'll have lots more days like this in our future...it was a fun time!

Logan wanted so badly to put his finger in the bowl when we were mixing up these yummy brownies.  I wouldn't let him, but when we were done, I told him he could have the beater.  He looked at me with his big brown eyes, as if to say, "Really...the whole beater, just for me?"  You got it buddy.  Enjoy!

One of the joys of baking with mom as a kid is trying so hard to get every last bit off the beater...remember those days?

"Did I get it all?"  Well, he did a good job cleaning off that beater, but I think quite a bit landed on his face and in his hair. :)

PS - These were super easy, fun brownies: one chocolate cake mix, chocolate pudding mix, one cup chocolate chips, and two cups milk.  So easy and super delish.  ;)
