Helping in the Kitchen - Again....

We have been lucky enough this year to have a very bountiful garden growing in our backyard. So we've been spending a lot of time recently 'harvesting' the goods. Cailin loves to hunt for raspberries. Andrew likes the watering part. He hasn't completely soaked us, but laughs when he 'accidentally' gets us.
They both love to help cook in the kitchen. If we are vacuum sealing beans or making something with zucchini (we have TONS of it...) they love to help. This past weekend, we made a few different zucchini treats, including making zucchini bars. We had to make dad's favorite cream cheese frosting and the kids 'helped' with that too. After it was all done, they wanted to lick the spoons. That led to frosting everywhere. But it was fun!! The kids did help and they later ate some of the zucchini bars with the frosting. They even ate the bars, not JUST the frosting....
