Bella made three loaves of banana bread all by herself today! All I did was read her the recipe one item at a time--not that she couldn't read it, but I make substitutions, and the recipe itself is a "Variation" of another on the page, and it's tricky to jump back and forth and easy to lose your place. So I would tell Bella the ingredient and she would interpret it back in her own kind of fraction patois:
Me: "Two thirds cup rice milk."
Bella: "That's one slash three filled up twice!"
Bingo!
She did a lovely job, and she has laid a nice array of slices in a vintage pie plate to take along to our Bible study group tonight, where I know she will shine with accomplishment as she passes it around.

ReplyDeleteHooray for Bella! Perhaps she will keep Clara company in the kitchen baking lots of goodies for your family.
By the way, I posted pictures of my making your Schoolhouse Gingerbread on my blog. It is WONDERFUL! Thanks for sharing such a fantastic recipe.
