First, I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas like I did. I am enjoying the time with my granddaughter. She is so much fun to be with. She still has the belief in Santa Clause, but for how long.
The other day she wanted to make cookies. We do this every year. I do know what is going to happen but it is okay. We get everything out that needs to be put into the cookies. She is having fun with the mixer until it is time to hand mix. She let me take over at that point and disappeared! After they were all baked she returned to eat! This is not fair!
The day after Christmas she wanted to make fudge. My fudge needs to be cooked. Once again I got all the ingredients out and started cooking. I was making a double batch. She came in to assist, which meant she came in to see the progress. She stirred the fudge for about two minutes and said her arm was going to break off. Yep, I took over! Her arm wasn't hanging or anything! Off she went. Grandpa asked her later if she was helping me. Of course. She once again came and checked on me as I was putting it in the frig. A few minutes later she came in and said it was ready. No it isn't, it needs to cool. She wanted to return to the frig and watch it until it cools. Get out of the frig! Really it does need to cool longer than one minute. Oh no, here she comes again. Excuse me while I guard the fudge from an eight year olds' fingers. Love being a Grandma!.......
