Pie Time!
I had a lot of lemons from my produce co-op and so Sunday we made a lemon meringue pie. Dotty helped with the crust and with the meringue. It was the first big project with her new apron from the beehive bazaar - or as she calls it "the pen store" since we also bought a pen there with a clown head on it, (always the creepy kid...). Dotty shares my gene for not liking messy hands. I improvised a tiny rolling pin out of a chopstick. I definitely need to buy her a mini baking set as she LOVED this project. My favorite parts of the process:
Dotty (though a little scared of the mixer) yelling while we beat the eggs for the meringue "Good job mixer! I'm so proud of you!!!!!"
After we put her piece of dough in with the rest of the pie - "We better go show Daddy!"
when the pie was brought out at Grandma's house, Dot turned to Daphne "My mom made it!"
