Chef Colin
Today for his snack I gave Colin yogurt. Nothing fancy, just vanilla yogurt with a bit of blackberry preserves mixed in. He devoured about half of it, then stopped eating and pointed to the kitchen counter and said something. I wasn't sure exactly what he was asking for though, so I asked him to repeat himself. Twice. Then I figured out what he wanted.
He was saying "I want spice" and pointing to our spice rack. He wanted me to add cinnamon to his yogurt. As soon as I did he mixed it into the remaining yogurt, said "better, Mommy. Yummy." and finished it.
And you thought I was kidding about his proclivity for culinary arts? Nope.
Not to say he isn't a regular little kid. This morning he played tennis and baseball for a half hour, after running around like a maniac and playing on the playground. But if I'm in the kitchen he can't resist. Last night he sobbed until I let him help me marinate the meat that we'll be grilling tonight. And he cried again when we were done. I can't wait until he's old enough to actually cook - this is going to be fun!
