Hello and welcome!

I live in Montreal, Quebec, and my first language is French.

May I insist on the fact that I love getting comments?

Soon, we won't even have to cook

Nearly every day, LP sits us down and tells us that he's going to prepare "a great meal." Sometimes he says snack (goûter), and sometimes even pique-nique, but you get his drift. Then, he does all of his little setup on the coffee table, and pretend tosses and mixes and pours and grates. Beware the parent who would try to "taste" what he's made too early, or doesn't pay enough attention and attempts to have something from the wrong pan... Then, he explains to us everything he's made, and we can finally "eat".


That particular night, his menu consisted of:

-pork skewers
-vegetables: "chick peas, green beans and carrots"
-rice
-"good Italian coffee for daddy"
-lemonade (made with freshly squeezed lemons, of course)
-popcorn
-chocolate cookies
-muffins
-and Chinese cookies, "with the little messages in them".

Too cute! Time to start giving him some real food to work with! or maybe he can direct you guys in the kitchen! His menu sounds yummy!

I guess you might have a future chef in the house. :)

You have no idea how happy that would make me! :-)

(More than his other current career choice, F1 driver, which would make me die of fear and worry.)

He is precious. I was going to say he was going to be a chef that drives fancy cars. Not F1 (which terrifies me, too, and I don't have kids), just the kind they like to test on Top Gear.

Can he cater my next party?

Are you teaching him to cook soon. I took on "baking projects" around four.

He's already been doing it for a while... Always helping me, baking especially. He LOVES it.
