A little chef

We bought a new frying pan this weekend because our old pan just died. I set it on a chair while I was unpacking other things from the store. Xander immediately pulled all the packaging off and started to cook. His choice of plastic food ingredients--well, it is a somewhat inventive combination.

Xander really enjoys cooking with me, but I think he really is interested in the kitchen tools more than the cooking itself. He absolutely loves to help me use the food processor, mixer, and blender.

He got very upset though when we had to use the new frying pan to cook real food. "My pan!" is what we heard over and over again.
