Distractions While Roasting & Baking

~ Posted on Monday, September 6, 2010 at 1:39 PM ~

Let me tell you it's not easy to make the Roasted Chicken Wings and bake the Chocolate Chip muffins while your mischievous little boy is running around distracting you.

You see, I was on my own cos MIL went out for the day and hubby was at work.

And I really wanted to get down to starting my baking adventures... so had to bear the interruptions every now and then...

Just check out the pictures of my dearest Benjamin which I managed to snap below:

Ben checking out why mummy keeps looking into the square machine (aka oven)

Ben looking up at me (thinking food is ready?) while I was just about to put back my camera on the kitchen table.

I let him play with one of my Astronaut Gloves, but he's still very curious with the oven...

He spent some time playing at the safety gate,

which is good for me cos he doesn't come into the kitchen area when I took out the roasted chickens to flip on the other side.

Btw, I didn't close the gate cos he'll definitely be fussing if I do so.

And anyway, he pretty much behaves himself and stay clear from me when I was handling the hot food.

Occassionally, he entertained himself with a basket of toys at the dining area...

MUMMY'S GOOD BOY!  Cool

Warming up his fingers to devour the roasted chickens and chocolate muffins?

You bet! Wink

benjamin is such a good boy! whenever i cook, jackjack is edging to see what i'm making. he even wants to taste with me! one time, though, he almost gave me a heart attack. he reached up to the stove and tried to turn it off...while the gas is on!

Hi Cheri!
Oh, Benjamin did disturbs me now and then. I had to react fast enough and throw him whatever kitchen utensils (the safe one of course) so that he gets distracted and I could continue my baking.. and of course, taking pictures hahaha Tong

Ben has yet to be able to reach the gas stove... I always covered the gas knob so he doesn't see how we operate the gas stove. Else he'll start learning and practising!
