Sous chef

Just a couple of snapshots of my oldest son helping me out in the kitchen recently. From the time he was a toddler I let him help me cook and bake, measuring and pouring and things of that nature. Now that he's 5, he has graduated to vegetable peeler status, and let me tell you, he takes his job very seriously. Just look at his face...

Peeling carrots and parsnips for soup

He's not really this tall by the way, he's standing on a little kid chair :)

I just love my little kitchen helper. Now, if only he was ready for dishwashing...
