Creative Recipes

During some deep cleaning recently I found a cookbook that was created in Deedle and String Cheese's preschool last year. The children were to come up with the recipes for their favorite foods. My girls were more logical than creative. Deedle said that she likes ramen noodles and cookies, but Dad makes the noodles and Mom and SC makes the cookies. She wrote, I "get to put in lots of sugar and nothing else." So, how would she know how to make them?

String Cheese was adamant that her favorite thing was a crisp bean burrito and you can NOT make them, you must BUY them from Taco Maker. She did make sure to let everybody know that they have beans inside and, "They are really good for a cold day. They are warm."

A couple of others gave their recipes very matter-of-factly. These were two of my favorites:

If you ask me, the strawberry cake doesn't sound all that strawberry-like, except maybe the scrubbed on frosting part. And Sam's poor mother obviously tried to pull one over on him by using Spaghetti instead of Ramen Noodles one day when he was demanding them and they were out and she was exasperated and insisted to him that yes, the spaghetti was indeed Ramen, even if it didn't look the same.
