My little chef

Aspen LOVES to help cook. She always wants to be in the kitchen when I'm cooking. She likes to have the light on anytime something is in the oven so she can see what's cooking. She loves to stir things. I've started letting her cut up soft fruits with her little toddler knife (that is NOT sharp AT ALL). Here she is today as we're attempting to make some gluten-free chicken nuggets. She added some pepper *which is her FAVORITE thing to add to foods* She is always asking for pepper (and says it SO cute!) and she sprinkles it on most anything:


And then adding a touch of parmesean/romano/asiago cheese. That's my girl! :)

She is very focused. Cooking is serious business for her. :)

She is just so much fun. And so sweet. And tries so hard to be helpful. I love my Aspen! :)
