Sometimes you just gotta make a mess!
All that matters is that you're having fun, and there are no carpeted surfaces nearby. ;-)
On another note, Seth has been asking me since Christmas to help him make a "ratattoille" (spelling?) Well we can say it, and now prepare it, sort of, so who cares if we can spell it? This is a photo of our masterpiece, which was actually quite tasty, and healthy to boot! We made a white cheese sauce with cream and mozzarella, then tinted small portions to every color of the rainbow, and finally drizzled the colored sauce over a ring of wheat crackers. The little chef was quite proud of his creation.
