iron chef chase

Chase cooked dinner for the family tonight for the first time ever! It was an amazing and wonderful event. I acted as sous chef only after he made the slight mistake of reading "3 tablespoons BATTER " as "3 tablespoons BUTTER" [ the first crepe was a little buttery, whatever! He was having a blast] When I told him you can't cook without music he thoroughly agreed. Bump and grind hip hop was not what I had in mind, but whatcha gonna do? As an iron chef watcher presentation was key to this whole night. He was running around the kitchen looking for candles and wine glasses and plates and chocolate syrup. When I realized what an event this was I ran to grab my camera. "It must be documented" I said. Upon hearing this, the chef hat went on and the pose emerged. He's a natural.

Pete couldn't be left out so he and I made chocolate, chocolate...way too much chocolate chip/chunk cookies. He loves to mix, but more so he can stick his little fingers into the batter than to actually MIX the ingredients. Aw well...we all put flour on our noses and just had fun.

bon appetit*
