Texas toast
dipped in a batter of egg, milk and cinnamon is a favorite in our house.
Sprinkle with a pinch of powdered sugar, drizzle with warm syrup, and our
mouths begin to water. It can be said that my boys and I are connoisseurs of
breakfast foods.
My oldest
son is such a fan of breakfast that he will eat breakfast foods for dinner. He
was excited one Christmas when he unwrapped a Belgian waffle iron. Needless to
say, excitement took over during his recent excursion in the kitchen.
While I was
at work my son sent me a text, along with a photo of his meal creation. The
caption read, “Chef Home Boy R Dee.” Followed by, “I think I need a cooking
show, I’m too good in the kitchen not to be famous.”
I don’t know
if my sons’ dish was pleasing to the palate, but the presentation was good. When
I arrived at home, the only thing left was an empty bowl with drippings of egg yolk
and a skillet with dried egg around the edges. I would have settled for a corner
of toast to dip in the glob of syrup left on my son’s plate.
The kitchen
was a mess, but Chef Home Boy R Dee was working on his brand. I learned long
ago to let the boys be creative while they were interested and not sweat the
small stuff. When a teen takes over the kitchen, be prepared for anything.
Has your
child ever experimented in the kitchen?
