Mmmm Taters!

Today my DD1 and DD2 made some incredibly delicious french fries, potato skins, and smashed taters! We went grocery shopping last week, and bought way to many potatoes, so we went a little wild trying to use them before they went bad.  What turned out was not only delicious food, but a kids cookbook was born! Today, rather than write about it, I will show you! 

Adding the sugar to the water....

Slicing the potatoes...

Frying them up...

And, mmmm! Everyone chowed them down! 

We invited Grampie over to have Loaded Tater Skins too. We had a cheese sauce, bacon, sour cream and chives that grow in our garden. DD2 tends to pick them and eat them when she plays outside, so we knew she would want them in the ingredients, so we made smashed taters with the left over potato. 

Yum!!! 

All in all it was a good way to spend the day. We were able to cover many school topics within these lessons too, and they didn't really even know it! 

The key to learning is to not force it! Make it fun!
