Silly Supper

Years ago we started the tradition of having 'breakfast' for dinner on Sunday nights. We would
have waffles or pancakes or eggs, bacon and grits (yes, grits...love 'em!), or omelets.... you get the idea. A friend of mine called this 'Silly Supper' and that phrase has stuck ever since. Little side note here - growing up the 3 meals were called 'breakfast, dinner and supper'. Wonder who came up with calling 'lunch' 'dinner'?? When I moved away to 'the big city' I started calling the three meal times 'breakfast, lunch and dinner'. Except for when we have 'Silly Supper'. ☺

About a month ago our oldest pulled out her "Kids in the Kitchen" cookbook by The Pampered Chef©. Ever since then - she has taken over the Sunday night Silly Suppers!!!! So far she's made "Hot Griddle Cakes", "French Toast Dippers" and "Deliciously Golden Applesauce". For lunch one day she made the "Super Sub". When this girl cooks - she does everything....yes, even the cooking. She loves it! Her sister jumps in on the action and WILLINGLY and with JOY washes the dishes afterwards. My 'little' girls are growing up.

Here are a few pics of the chef at work - using all the handy-dandy Pampered Chef© tools!

Picture above - wearing my "Botswana" apron, which for her is a dress.

Here's the chef - reading over the recipe BEFORE starting to cook. She's like her mom - a planner. She has her ingredients and tools gathered, ready to start.

The apple cut in wedges....I really, really like this kitchen tool.


Now for chopping the apples.......


Do a little mixing...
Time to cook!

And you know what picture I DIDN'T take???? The finished product! Ooops. I can tell you that the "Hot Griddle Cakes" she made were absolutely delicious. In fact, we had a version of them tonight for Silly Supper.
