Miah helped me bake brownies from scratch--the only way to make brownies. First, we unwrapped the baking chocolate. Miah was so involved that I let her unwrap an extra square before rewrapping it for another batch of brownies.
Then, while Mom melted the chocolate and butter in the microwave, Miah occupied herself with scraping a fork through the buttered baking dish. What fun!
Mom was a little nervous about giving a 19-month-old a 1/4 C of flour, but after practicing a few times, Miah was able to dump the last bit of flour into the bowl all on her own.

A few minutes later the batter was ready to go in the oven and Miah indulged in the fruits of her labor, gooey brownie dough.

Looks like Miah likes to dig in with both hands when there is a project to be done! I can remember hollering "who wants to lick the spoon" when I was baking something. Funny...there never was a shortage of "taker"!
I'm going to miss being able to lick the spoons myself!
