Lefse Fun

Lefse is pure yummy goodness...but it sure makes a mess of my kitchen

Flour is EVERYWHERE!

No matter how careful I try to be; I end up with a white kitchen

I didn't get a great picture of Millikins eating her lefse this time around; this photo is from Fall 2008 when I was first learning how to make it

We decided to let Lulu get in on the action this time

She didn't actually get anything down the hatch; but she did get a taste of it. She sucked on it a bit and made chewing motions. In the end, she turned it basically back into mashed potatoes. But, she had fun! And, that's what matters.

Our Little Waitress

Millikins has an urge to write these days.

She doesn't want to exactly learn her letter or numbers, although there is some interest on that front. Usually what she wants to write is an order for food. She'll walk up to you with her little magna doodle and ask you, "Is there anything else?"

We eat out some times, no where NEAR enough for her to have as her life ambition to be a waitress. Although, how often she has been playing this game makes me wonder if we aren't eating at home enough.

Maybe she has a life ambition to be a cook? Which would be a very strange twist of irony since Millikins doesn't eat practically ANYTHING!

Yesterday, I was able to sneak the camera out and catch her in the act of taking down my order for spaghetti with cheese on top.

She actually wasn't showing me my order here, she was trying to deflect the camera to a lamp that she pretends is either a waterfall or a shower-she wanted me to take pictures of the lamp instead of her. But, it looks like she's asking for my confirmation of my order so I had to include it, even though I just gave away what she's really doing. =)
