This Diner Never Closes!

It seems that no matter what time of day it is, someone is always hungry around here!  Knowing this, it is easy to organize many activities for my crew that involve cooking.  (Well, at least we pretend to cook.  I end up doing most of it!) 

One of Charlie, Wylie and Bess’ favorite kitchen messes to make is with watermelon!  They absolutely love eating out of the big slices!  Thankfully, this week, I was given a watermelon which in turn made 3 little loves very happy!

Now, my floor was completely sticky and my cabinets had to be wiped down, but… this crew ate their watermelon and then some!  Even Bailey Baby #4 enjoyed this afternoon treat!  

So today when Bailey Baby #4 was requesting Rice Krispie treats, the crew reassembled in the kitchen for a round of more cooking fun!  Again, mom did all the hard work so these 3 could enjoy the fruits of my labor!    Wylie, who was totally against the idea of a Rice Krispie treat at first, has developed a new love.  And like most things Wylie does, she hoarded as much of the pan of treats as she could!!

She did stop to offer a microbite to her brother who was very upset with the fact that she chose his bite.

However, he was soon able to grab a bite or five and hit the road!

And then it was Baby Bess’ turn to beg for a bite from the Rice Krispie treat hoarder!

And she too got her bite!

And we will be living  happily ever after tonight!  Thanks to our bellies be full!
