Cooking Class: Jambalaya

LJack loves to cook, and is getting so comfortable around the stove.  No longer am I worried about him touching the pan or the stove.  He is very cautious and enjoys it so much.

Jack and Lucas are both starting to use knives (plastic) to cut their own food on their plate when they can.  Jack is also enjoying watching me chop food for dinner.  Tonight we chopped the celery, mushrooms, peppers and onion together.

Jack was also responsible for the spice blend.  I told him which ones to put in and how much.  His shake on the cayenne pepper was a little heavy handed, so dinner was a little spicy - but still tasty.  I guess the fire fighter helmet, which he chose to wear instead of his chef hat, was appropriate for the spice factor!

Jack helped me put everything into the pan and it was his job to occasionally stir until it started to bubble.  He had to let me know when it had started to bubble, and he did a great job!

Once again, he did a great job cooking.
