My LIttle Chef



Cole and I have been doing quite a bit of cooking lately. It is really so super hot outside that we are both trying to find things to do inside. He loves to cook...LOVES it so it is easy to keep him busy if I just mention making something together. One thing I had been meaning to try for awhile now is making our own Popsicles. It is not a surprise that Cole adores Popsicles so I was wanting to find a "healthier" alternative. Cole and I spent a few hours the other morning making all different kinds of Popsicles to try. His favorite...and mine too...were the strawberry lemonade Popsicles. I bought organic strawberry lemonade and added chopped up strawberries to the mix. They were so yummy! One nice thing is that the homemade Popsicles are bigger than the store bought kind so he would be totally full after just one (he only ever gets one by the way but he usually asks for more than that). It was so sweet to see him enjoying his treat and hearing him tell Rhonald how he made it. He was so very proud and that made the whole experience worth it!
