Monkey boy cooking

This week being the first week of the school holidays I decided that it was time to start him on some cooking lessons now that he is already eight. I bought him his own frying pan and we started off with the first lesson~ Frying an egg.

Monkey boy decided on scrambled eggs as it was easier to manage as compared to a sunny side one.

I am able to work from home and be there for the kids this year.
I am surrounded by family and friends who have my best interest at heart.
I am able to pursue my passions and hobbies.
