Cooking

Alex loves cooking.

He always wants to help in the kitchen, always trying to think about what he can cook.
As part of his getting ready for school stuff, they encourage you to take them along to the library and get them their own card.
Now Alex has been to the library loads of times but never had his own card, so we happily trotted off last week and did all the official stuff.
He happily signed his name on the back of his card, but got annoyed when the lady wouldn't let him keep it (it had to go off to be officially printed)
Despite telling him it would appear in the post in a few days he was not happy.

So I tried to grab his attention back by suggesting we look for cook books.
This worked.
We happily left the library with a childrens cook book and Alex spent the rest of the day going through it establishing which recipes he was going to make.

We have since made:

• Smoothies
• Chocolate Zucchine Cake
• Sesame Soy Chicken

Shame with his funny tummy at present he is not all that into eating the food, but we are encouraging him to cook when ever he wants.
