Story Time with Rosie and Jim

I don't even know who Rosie and Jim are, which is probably why I was calling Jim "Ben" for most of the morning. Rosie and Ben just has a nice ring to it.

Last cooking class for Chickpea today and she make shortbread biscuits. They were quite delicious and the only recipe we made that she dug into with wild abandon. The other ones were quite healthy, though, so I guess I understand.

While the biscuits were cooking the girls sat on the couch and started to read stories to each other. They were short stories as neither has mastered storytelling or, in fact, listening yet, but it was very cute. Then Rosie and Jim joined in on the listening end and there was a small altercation when M decided she wanted to trade Rosie for Jim but Chickpea was not in agreement. Still, the moments of peace are lovely and it was mostly peaceful today.

The elves turned the milk green this morning so it was pretty exciting having our cereal with green milk.

In other news, I have stupidly burned myself quite sorely so I'm off to lick my wounds...
