Yeah, I didn't get anymore photos of us on the rides coz most of them, I went on, so I couldn't take photos. There weren't any Dodgem Cars again this year, so we were realllyyy dissapointed, coz thats like our family favourite ride we go on a million times! =P *Sad face*...

Kitchen Capers

This is what happens when Mum leaves the house and leaves me in the kitchen with 2 hyper-active toddlers...

Joseph: just being his usual self. Caleb is becoming frustrated.

 

Joseph again being 'normal'. Well, normal for him.

 Joseph: "I have a brilliant idea!" Caleb shares his enthusiasm.

Back to work while I start working on Joseph's masterplan.

And here it is - a mega cookie! Yes, he is the coolest 4-year-old alive! Why didn't I think of that years ago? His hand shows a size comparison here.

After being cooked...

Smelling very tempting...

A proud moment! I felt like one of my [very many] life goals had been accomplished with the completion of this mega cookie.

The finished work of art...

Cookies!

Chocolate Chip Cookies

Ingredients:

1 cup melted butter

1 cup sugar

2 cups S.R. flour

1 egg

1 cup chocolate chips

Method: Preheat oven to 160°C. Beat butter and sugar together. Mix in flour, then egg, then chocolate chips. Place dessertspoonfuls of mixture on greased baking trays, and bake for 10-15 minutes or until lightly golden. Makes about 36 cookies.

Don't ask me why I posted a recipe on here. I guess I just felt the need to share what I consider to be the best cookie recipe in existence. It's super quick and easy to make (I don't even use the recipe - I just make it from memory), it tastes great, and keeps really well. It also uses only very basic ingredients (so you can make it anytime without shopping for special ingredients), and makes quite a large quantity of cookies... which is a really good thing, because they don't last long! I forgot to mention... when I say it makes 36 cookies, that's as soon as it comes out of the oven. Soon after that, they start disappearing, and the numbers will considerably decrease unless you guard them with vigilance...
