While she was here, we made some chocolate chip oatmeal cookies - my favorite. She stood on the stool beside me and watched what I was doing. With these cookies, the chocolate chips and oatmeal are added last by hand, since the electric mixer would break up the chocolate pieces. So Ashby helped me clean the beaters when we were finished with them.
"Good job, Grandma. It really tastes good."
When I finished the hand mixing, she helped again by licking the big spoon. It was almost as big as she is, but that didn't seem to slow her down.
"Don't worry, Grandma. It is a big spoon, but I can handle it."
When they finished baking, she was the taste tester.
"These turned out really good, Grandma."
"Just look how perfect our cookies are. Let's do this again!"
A perfect morning - the cutest granddaughter ever and homemade cookies!

Cute and yummy! I remember how fun when the grandchildren wanted to stand on a stool to help. Then they loved also to stand on the stool and 'wash dishes' and play in the water and ended up all soaked down the front. Fun times!
