By 10.30 am I was starting to feel light-headed, so I grabbed the nearest thing (potato chips) and started eating. And then went off to feed baby. The boy, seeing me stuff my face, asked me "are you hungry, mama?". And then he trotted off to his play kitchen, and came back with this:
"Because you didn't eat enough potato chips, you have to eat capsicum cake", he declared, and proceeded to feed me the pieces. The baby tried to grab a mouthful too, but got pushed away by the big boy with a "no, baby J, you can only eat this when you are bigger, ok?".
And here are the steps to make the cake, as described by Junior J:
1. Take a piece of bread and put a burger bun on it.
2. Put another bread on it.
3. Put capsicum on top.
4. Bake it in the oven.
5. Eat it, its very yummy!
And that's his recipe for capsicum cake. To me, that's a recipe for making mama smile!
that's soooo sweet. Hope he never finds out how much yummier potato chips are! :)
ReplyDeleteHope your days are getting better and better. It is not easy to travel with young children. I had it before, though it was a short trip. The feeling of helpless enough to be miserable! But thinking back now, it was like a test to all of us as a family in a cold stranger's place. And somehow, it makes me liking traveling with kids more;).
ReplyDeleteThis is SO SWEET and definitely one heartwarming cake! =)

ReplyDeleteNerdymum: LOL! We tell him potato chips are "grown-up chips" and he's sorta content with eating his own apple chips. :p
