Zane Makes Eggs
Our son, Zane, who just turned two and a half a couple of days ago, has always been a big fan of cooking. Over the course of his short life he has dutifully observed me while I cooked for the family, and at some point he just started joining in. I didn’t realize how proficient he had become until I recently witnessed him cracking eggs without getting a single shell in the bowl! I thought this was pretty impressive, so the next time we made eggs I took a little video. Here is Zane making scrambled eggs from start to finish!

merrymaking
From “A Christmas Carol” by George Wither:
So now is come our joyful feast,
Let every man be jolly;
Each room with ivy leaves is dressed,
And every post with holly.
Though some churls at our mirth repine,
Round your foreheads garlands twine,
Drown sorrow in a cup of wine,
And let us all be merry.
