And then we baked cookies!

Ella's first cookie bake! she helped mixing, put the ingredients in the bowl (sugar, salt, etc) and of course added in the chocolate chips (all but a couple that she used as a quality control sample.) then we put the cookie dough on the baking sheet together, and counted the cookies.
we looked at them in the oven ("it's hot!") through the oven window, and she watched as i took them out of the oven wearing "ima's minets" (mittens)
i must say that she was awfully patient waiting for the cookies to cool down!
