Boys and Brownies

Even though I am a mother of 5 boys and not a single girl in the bunch, my boys have learned some great homemaking skills :)

I've taken from my experiences, the opportunity to prepare my boys to be fathers and husbands and good missionaries. Each one of them has had some great times in the kitchen sharing and learning how to cook many different things from snacks to breakfast, lunch and dinner.

Aaron has been such a huge help this past year for me and has made so many dinners. He's gotten creative and made some super yummy dishes and some have been huge learning experiences for him. Even the rough times haven't scared him away from cooking, for which I am so grateful.

Dallin has shown an interest in learning how to cook this past year as well as Josh. They've learned how to make jello, pudding, cookies.

This afternoon, I asked Aaron to make some brownies. Dallin asked if he could make them instead...so Dallin got to make brownies on his own for the first time today :) I was in the kitchen making queso for dinner and supervising Dallin's brownie making. He did a great job and made some very tasty brownies :)

What a blessing that my boys are willing and eager to learn how to cook. That is one area that I don't worry about them, they will be able to feed themselves and their roomates, companions and wives :)
