Bryce & Rocio

Bryce has recently expressed a lot of interest in learning to cook. He is dying to try some recipes for things he has made up off the top of his head, and unfortunately they usually seem too disgusting for us to try to make. He is also prone to making a huge mess.

As tonight was date night for the parents, Rocio came over to watch the kids, and as she always makes some great things to eat when she is here, I suggested to Bryce that he ask her if he could help cook. Rocio has the patience of a saint, and isn't phased by a mess in the kitchen, so it seemed like a perfect match.

She had Bryce do some cooking tasks, including crack some eggs to make a bread pudding apple fritata kind of thing, and even though a couple of eggs landed on the floor, it came out great. (I had some for breakfast the next day). Here's a video of Bryce and Rocio working together:



Bryce has come a long way since we first got here. On Rocio's first night watching the kids, Bryce was petrified that she couldn't speak English. Now the kids are able to communicate with her, and Bryce jumps for joy when we say that Rocio is coming. She has totally won them over. Way to go Rocio!

Update: Rocio even squeezed the oranges we had in the fruit basket so that I could have fresh juice the next morning. THAT is awesome.
