The Brownie in our house is hot on the trail of doing her "try-its". We have a book full of opportunities for Conleigh to try. She earns a badge each time she completes four of the six listed ideas. Yesterday on our way to pick up Campbell & Alex from Granny, she spent time looking at her Try-It book. She decided to focus on the ~Make It, Eat It~ badge.
So...tonight we ate Sloppy Joes and baked apples for dinner. She & Peter got cookin' on the sloppy Joe's. When Alex said he didn't like it (before he even tried it), Conleigh announced to him that that hurt her feelings because she made this meal. Peter & I brought that comment to her attention, so she may remember down the road when she tells us about how horrible some meal is that WE make.
Conleigh & I got the apples cored and filled with brown sugar & butter. Those cooked while we ate our meal. Conleigh & Alex liked those too. It was a great meal, and Conleigh was very proud.
She has completed two of the four items she needs to do. Next up, she'll work on Brownie Soup & Fruit Fizz drink.
