Apprentice

It is impossible these days, to open a cabinet, pantry or the fridge without hearing Fieldin come up behind pushing his baking stool. With a determined face he says" I will help mix". If no cookings to be done, he shrugs at the false alarm and is back to flying his airplanes. If it is cooking time, well, game on.... and we cannot shy away from help by our little apprentice.

He stirs, pours ingredients, uses the kitchen aid mixer on his own, he scoops, pours batter into baking pans and he can form the perfect cookie. If he is filling a bit artistic he will make you a cookie with a face of chocolate chips.

 He is a tidy cook. He likes things done correctly. He is a bit of a perfectionist.

Of course to make sure his creations are of highest quality, he must taste test.....often.

If Jeff or I try his cookie dough he says" Don't eat it, It will make you sick" and " I need that for my cookies!!!!" I've learned to follow his rules and not to mess with him. He knows his stuff.

Cookie making is serious business for this little fellow... yes indeed.
