Boy Baking

Little Man has been baking a lot of late, completely of his own accord and without any assistance from me other than the in-and-out of the oven bit.

He decided to make chocolate shortbread biscuits at the weekend.

He looked through all my cookie cutters and chose the mini gingerbread man one.

When they were cool he was very excited about decorating them.

We went to the shops to purchase silver balls and white icing especially for this purpose.

I was expecting that the silver balls would be used to make buttons.

But no.

Not buttons.

The silver balls were used to make ....eh-hem....balls!

Boy baking.

Boy biscuits.

Brilliant.

Priceless :-D. I made chocolate shortbread 'gingerbread' women with my daughter the other day - I should probably be thankful she didn't want to add boobs!

The biscuits are too cute. It's great that he is interested in cooking. I will have to make some snowflakes with my son, I think he would enjoy them.

Fabulous!
You should have bought some jelly beans too, or maybe they are a bit out of scale with the silver balls?

Why is it that boys are sooooooooo obsessed by them? And they never seem to grow out of it! I have three boys and car journeys are always full of vocabulary such as smelly, poo, and wee wee head. You just don't get this with girls!

My eldest made his own tea last night and he was super chuffed at his handywork. The kitchen was a complete mess mind you!!!!!!

Have a super rest of a day Lucy!

Much love

Hello dear Lucy,
I've been following your blog for a while now and I have never made a comment to it so far. But when I saw these little cookiemen I felt I had to because I nearly fell off my chair while laughing so loud. They are truly fantastic! What a great son you have!
Lots of xxx
