I love watching Paula Deen's cooking shows. She makes great looking food and she's always very entertaining to watch. I have never made any of her recipes though. I think it's the "start off with 2 sticks of butter" that deters me. A few weeks ago though she was cooking with some children. I can't remember if they were neice and nephew - or grandchildren. Either way...
She decided to make a fun breakfast which included green eggs and ham. I had thought about making green eggs and ham before with the kids. But, I would have added both blue and yellow food colouring. Paula pointed out the obviouis. That the eggs already had yellow in them - so all you had to do was add blue and watch them change colour!
Well, that was common sense. Although, I find out for me anyway, common sense is only common sense after someone's pointed it out to me.
Both kids really got into mixing up the eggs and watching them turn green. It was a great way to get them both involved. Unfortunately when they were done, Jacob thought that in fact he does not like Green Eggs and (no) ham. Jenna gobbled them up. I ate them and they tasted like normal eggs, but visually it was kind of weird to eat green eggs.
