For four days Larien has asked me to make sugar cookies. Because today was a rainy day, I decided today was the day.The girls help me gather the ingredients and then climb onto the counter. From there we take turns putting in the flour, sugar, and egg. I do the butter and the shortening. Inwe holds the hand mixer. And, although this makes a huge mess, it's worth the clean up time to have so much fun.
I think the favorite part isn't eating the baked product, but licking the dough off the beaters.
When the cookies were cooled, Inwe labled a bag for Phill, "For Daddy. Cookies for you. Megan."

Bakind cookies with my four is one of our favorite things to do. They like to lick the dough, too!
Didn't we ALL lick the dough as children? Then we learned what raw eggs could do to you and realized that it wasn't sanitary and we stopped. Then we had kids and realized what didn't kill us made us stronger and therefore we should do the same things to our children who are now ingesting raw egg too. And the circle of life is complete!
