kitchen aide

can you believe it's taken me this long to make brownies with von??  he was such a fantastic helper.  poured the water & oil into the bowl, helped stir, helped pour the batter into pan, and then stood back while i opened the 'hot-hot' (aka oven).  ok, so maybe i missed the step where he flung batter off of his spoon all over the kitchen floor - that's when ollie came into the picture as 'the clean-up crew', but she had no complaints about it.  the brownies baked perfectly and made the house smell wonderful!  when it was time for dishes, von stood on his stool and loved rinsing each dish .... until i gave him a spoon, now that's when the soap bubbles were flung around the kitchen (ollie didnt help much with that clean-up).  
love him!
