Day one of cookery camp and Little Miss Nine is raring to go! Motivation levels on a scale of 1 to 10? Definitely 10. So far so good. For the next five days Little Miss Nine will be cooking under the instructions of Chef Jeffers from Forestside Cookery School – by video link.
Stephano has a week off work, so he’ll be here to join in the fun (and the supervising).
To get the fun going he ‘reluctantly’ put on an apron and a chef’s hat. Little Miss Nine made it clear that this was her gig and not his. Off with that hat Stephano!
Who likes cooking? Me! Actually, who likes cooking with their children? Not sure…mmm!
Last week I signed Little Miss Nine up for a five day virtual cookery camp, starting next Monday. Cook Like A Boss. Little Miss Nine can make toast and get herself a bowl of cereal – that’s it! We have made pizzas and buns together and that turned out okay…we managed! This will be different though because I intend to let her do most of the work on her own. Well, that’s the plan!
So, I’ve a feeling my patience will be tested during this. I don’t really like sharing my kitchen with others – except my husband because we kinda work the same way. Also, Little Miss Nine would rather be reading, drawing or writing, so I’m not sure how I’ll keep her motivated for five days. I’ll try my best though
Every morning we will receive an email that will link to an instruction video, which we can cook along to at our own pace. Judging by the list of ingredients, which we have already been sent, it looks like the recipes will be delicious. Of course that depends on the chef, doesn’t it?
