My husband is better than yours
Jan 21
Do you want to know why my husband is the best in the world? Let me tell you.
A few weeks ago, Paul took Declan to the “Toy Story,” also known as Smart Toys and Books, a fabulous toy store that has awesome educational toys out for display so the kids can play and the parents don’t have to clean up a mess. It is Declan’s favorite place on earth and he asks to go pretty much everyday. Paul is awesome about taking him every few weeks, and they have an awesome Boys’ Day playing there and being the daddy, he is always suckered into buying him something small like a harmonica that makes me want to blow my brains out smile so big! So a few weeks ago they went, and Paul, being the amazing dad that he is, saw a flier for a Kids Cooking Class and signed him and Declan up!
I KNOW! He is so awesome.
Anyway, today was the class, and let me tell you something. It is one thing to say that it is sexy when a man can cook. But when a man can cook AND he takes your child to a COOKING CLASS on his OWN ACCORD, it makes Porn For Women look like Little Women. In other words, Paul rocks.
So yea, Declan loved it. He loves to cook, as I wrote about recently, and Paul said he absolutely flourished in the class. He answered all the questions asked to the kids, “What’s your favorite vegetable?” “CARROT!” “What’s your favorite fruit?” “CARROT!” “What’s your favorite food?” “Potatoes!” (*cough, cough, BULLSHIT, cough), and he ate all the food they “made,” even the parsnips in the shape of stars. He was the youngest kid there, too. Not that I’m bragging.
So Declan came home (either physically or in his belly) with Fruit Kabobs, Polka Dot Waffle Sticks, Crazy Potato/Carrot/Parsnip Coins and Sweet Potato Chips, and was so proud. And I was so proud of my husband for coming up with such a fabulous idea to share with our crazy boy.
- Ready for class to start
- Cutting out his veggies
- The finished product: Cut out carrots, parsnips and potatoes
- Silly boy having a blast
- Making his fruit kabobs
- There was cheese on it, so of course, he loved it.
- Seasoning the sweet potato chips
- They made Polka Dot Waffle Sticks from waffles, PB&Co Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter and strawberry or blueberry jelly. Paul said this lasted 3 seconds before Declan devoured it.
- YUM!
- Stretching after cooking and eating some nutritious snacks
