Today the three youngest brains, Angelica Imogen and Ivan went over to Lynn B's for a cookery lesson which lasted for most of the afternoon right through the evening and up until about 8pm!
Loads of fun, they made cheese pies, pasta salads, cake, biscuits and a lot of mess :)
This was Angelica's first time making short crust pastry from scratch and I think she managed it pretty well especially mastering someone else's kitchen scales. Ours in ancient, an old Tower one from the 1970's which was extremely advanced for its time as it has ounces and metric weights on it.
Also Lynn B. cooks on gas and we have electric. So all in all, with the new things to get used to, all the kids managed really really well.
There were six kids in total and I think that for a first attempt at teaching cookery, Lynn B. managed remarkably. All the kids gave her enormous cuddles when they were leaving with their various eddible goodies before we came home.
I tried each one and I have to say they were delicious!

Great pics the children looked as though they had a really good time. Wish I could have tasted the finished produce.
Oh dont worry, they have lots planned for when they see you so you will get to try lots, they are most insistent that you do! :)
