Jan. 30, 2007 - Cooking
My twin boys who have autism love to cook. I am being stretched. The two of them in the kitchen are like two young raging bulls. They squabble and whine about who is getting to do what. It's enough to make me want to give up having them "help" me. But I know these are skills they are going to need in life. And it just brings them so much joy! They are so cute when they're cooking.
Today we made pancakes and sausage. They were so proud. They are big eaters, so learning to cook is going to be something they will always enjoy.
I would like to try them one at a time in the kitchen, but if I don't have their dad at home at the time I'm cooking, that won't work because the other twin won't stay out of the kitchen.
They were filled to the gills with eggs, sausage and pancakes all made by them. And I never heard "I'm hungry!" all afternoon and evening! I think it must have been a success!
