Earlier this week, we were in the living room. Baguette came around the corner from the kitchen, waving a wooden spoon and saying, “Let’s bake a cake.”
From that point on, she refused to bake a cake. I would ask, and she would reply, “No, thank you.”
But tonight, I asked again, and she said, “Yes. YES.”
So she mixed (turns out she’s pretty good at mixing), and I poured the batter and put the cake pan in the oven, and then I frosted and she helped with sprinkles distribution.
This is either the BEST idea ever for Share Day at day care, or the WORST idea ever for Share Day at day care.
UPDATE: Good news! Her teacher was totally cool with getting a surprise cake. (I made sure to take in as many paper plates and plastic forks and spoons as I could find, so that she didn’t have to scrounge.)
