Chef Emma

Since we have been sick, we have been watching a lot of Food Newtwork shows on NetFlix...until they took them all off January 1st. :(  But we learned some new things, and got some good ideas to try, so we have been trying them out. Usually at least one of us likes each one, but some of them I think we will need to try more than once to see if we can make them better. Also, Steven helped Emma make some New Years Resolutions, and one of them was to learn how to cook pancakes and waffles. So we started on that today. :) yum. We are having fun. Emma is learning a lot, today we talked about separating eggs, yolks, whites, soft peaks, while making waffles. And it's funny when she just starts talking about the TV chefs, seeing whose recipe we are making. 

Emma's Resolutions

Emma made our salads yesterday...lots of croutons, and she added sweet potatoes.

Pounding the chicken for our roulade

Chicken, ham, cream cheese, spinach roulade. It was yummy. 

She put M&Ms on her waffle. I put pecans and cinnamon in mine, and with real butter and real maple syrup on top...YUM! 

And since it has been cold out, she asks for hot chocolate a lot. So we bought some new flavors: Chocolate raspberry, cookies and cream, mint truffle, white chocolate.
