Things it never occurred to me to dream of doing

Cooking Pernese klah and bubbly pies with my kids. I love Anne McCaffrey's Pern series, but I always hated cooking, until Justin got old enough to enjoy doing it. I also disliked coffee and blueberries. Learned to tolerate them because of Chris (coffee) and Justin (blueberries), until they gradually grew on me. And now, here I am, making a drink that's largely coffee-flavoured and a dessert that's half blueberries, thoroughly enjoying the making and looking forward to the consuming. Who knew :)

I'm sure that's a typo, but I lol'ed at your cannabilizing your own children. That probably says more about me than it does about you...

So do you use ground up chocolate bunnies in your klah?

LOL! Bunnies, no; chocolate chips that have been pulverized by an over-enthusiastic boy with a mallet, yes :D :D

That sounds as much fun as it was to show the boys how to eat a coconut...any food that involved nails and hammering had to be fun, but Rohan was sorely disappointed it didn't taste more to his liking.
