Saturday Evening

For quite a while Sarah Graves has been talking about Kate's birthday being "tomato".  Well, we celebrated her birthday on Saturday!  Lovie brought a cake, we added a candle, we sang to Kate, and then Sarah Graves helped Kate out by blowing out the candle and eating the cake!  According to Sarah Graves, Kate turned two.  



As you can see, SG loved the cake and was very happy to enjoy it for Kate!  Kate, you bring a lot of joy and humor to our family and we are glad to celebrate you!

My cutie loves to help out in the kitchen and I love the idea of teaching her early how fun it is to cook and share yummy food with people that we love.  So, we made a blueberry pie on Saturday evening.  She was quite proud as she carried the flour into the kitchen for me.  

She helped to measure out the flour and sugar and helped me count the number of teaspoons of cinnamon going in the bowl.  

She most enjoyed stirring it all together with the blueberries.  It helps to have an extra set of hands from Daddy when cooking with a two-year-old.  

Once we had it in the pie shell, she helped at the dots of butter on top.  

The oven is hot, so she runs to the opposite side of the room to stay clear of being burned!  This recipe from Talk About Good is so simple and the pie comes out very yummy.  It is definitely best with fresh blueberries, but I have made it with frozen ones, too.
