Lamingtons great idea? 3 small children, dessicated coconut and melted chocolate the making's of the mother of all messes. I guess mummy ( the one with the bright idea in the first place ) thought because the little master chef actually had all the master chef get up, he would be able to handle a task like making lamingtons. Many smarter families refuse to buy "Satan's favorite treat" and here we were going to make them. What ensued was not kaos as you might expect but 3 small boy's led by the small master chef actually working together to quickly and most surprisingly quietly make these little treats.

All the terrors getting involved at this stage. I think the making of the "lammys" has taught the whole family some valuable lessons. They are as follows.
1. Clothes do make the man (well in Noahs case anyway).
2. Don't underestimate the speed in witch the kids can carry out a task (lamingtons got finished really quickly once they were told they could lick the chocolate bowl).
3. Clean hands good, dirty hands = runs.
4. Don't leave to go to work 1 hour early just to avoid mess, cause it will still be there when you get home just in another form.
All sounds fine but how did they taste?
ReplyDeleteOr were the after effects too severe to go there again cause of the dirty hands? lol
Love Grandma
They tasted great! A little chunky and some weren't completely covered in chocolate, but still yummy! And surprisingly there were no runs and yes I did clean up all the mess which took me hours!!! Overall it was a memorable experience, one which we won't relive anytime soon! Erin.
