such a good helper!

Shayna loves to cook. She helps me out in the kitchen so much. I love having someone in the kitchen with me. It's nice to have someone to talk to and it is so much faster because she will do all the prep work.
She read a book at school that had some recipes in it. She thought this particular recipe looked really good (Olive Chicken Rollups) so she asked her teacher to print it off for her. She brought the recipe home and I thought it would be the perfect opportunity to let her learn how to read a recipe and follow the directions.
This is her first time cutting up onions.

Now she understands what I mean when I tell her cutting onions makes me cry. We were both laughing pretty hard.
Cooking the chicken. She is getting really good at using the stove top.

And the best part is eating all your hard work.

Thank you for making dinner Shay. It was very good and I am so proud of you for sticking with it to the end.
