here is Anna's Strawberry Shortcake (from our beloved Williams Sonoma cookbooks) and her real whipped cream. She is planning to move to NYC when she is older and open a little bakery/pastry shop TODAY (it may change to a lawyer, fashion designer, famous person). a mother's right to brag on her child, annoying...one on my huge list of pet peeves... however, she is pretty spectacular.

okay, most blogs can be braggy-ish, here I am talking about myself and my kids and what we do, all about ME! but you know those types of mothers. Their child is the best at EVERYTHING.
I know I am proud and pleased with my kids lots of times, and other times ARGH I could just pull my hair out.
whatever, Anna is the greatest eleven year old I hang out with on a regular basis.
