You've heard the complaints... kids today are lazy, lack initiative, don't know how to do much of anything at all except play video games and text on their cell phones... they are spoiled and think of only themselves.
Well, good news! That is not the case here at Chez MSD!
***Warning: Epic Mommy Brag about to ensue.***
Firstpup has been working with his dad installing a tongue and groove wood ceiling in our neighbor's log cabin home. While the boys were away (two of them anyway), and I was at play with the rabbits, Queenpup and my youngest son Colliepup were busy in the house. They thoroughly cleaned the kitchen, doing dishes, cleaning counters, and mopping the floor. We have a really big kitchen, too!
Not only that, but they made a spectacular meal for all of us!
Queenpup made a batch of homemade tortilla chips for an appetizer:
Colliepup, who is ten, made our first ever BBQ'd bunny, slow cooked under a dome shaped BBQ lid, using oak wood for a delicious smoky flavor:
Queenpup also made a lovely salad, individually plated and chilled in the fridge for several hours:
She also made baked potatoes with fresh chives from the garden, but I forgot to get a pic of that...
For dessert, Firstpup made vanilla ice cream to go along with the homemade from scratch- no mix!- carrot cake made by Queenpup:
Just in case that wasn't enough to satisfy one's sweet tooth, she and Colliepup also made oatmeal raisin cookies, also from scratch:
So, what do you think? opcorn: Is there hope?
