Rock To Wind A String Around

Saturday night rolled around and it was time for dinner.  Albert took Elliott to a fencing lesson, so that left the ladies at home to chat and cook.  Astrid Meklit usually cooks in her kitchen while I prep dinner in the big one, but on Saturday, she helped to make our sweet and sour curry.  While I made the sauce and chopped tomatoes, Astrid readied the beans:

a quick ‘how-to’ from mama and she was ready to chop

good idea, close your eyes so you can’t witness the imminent digit removal.

Much better form–the curry will remain meat-free

46 long minutes later, the beans were trimmed and snapped, and my girl beamed with obvious pride.  She was SO proud to share the delicious dinner she made with Elliott and Albert.
