Alone in the kitchen

Lovey likes to be in the kitchen. He loves to bake cookies with me and even helps make scrambled eggs. This summer he received a kid's cookbook as a present. I was stumped for meal ideas for this week, so I asked Lovey to look through and pick something out for us to make together.

His choice: Bacon and Onion Quiche and Lemon Cheesecake. Okay. Now he doesn't really like onions so his choice puzzled me a little, but he is my child and anything with bacon in the name makes us stop and forgot everything else in in. All we hear is bacon.

I had it all worked out for us to make it on Saturday. Daddy could occupy Littlebit while Lovey and I cook. But then Lovey came home from school on Friday with a headache and feeling rather miserable. He toughed it out in the cold, wind, and rain to get our Christmas tree, but we didn't want him anywhere near our food. I was bummed. Lovey, on the other hand, says I can make it by myself. I don't want to, but I spent most of the afternoon in the kitchen. Alone. Bacon and Onion Quiche and Lemon Cheesecake is on the menu tonight.
