Baking Pretzels
Annada and I made pretzels. We pulled the dough together and then Annada did the water and cinnamon sugar. We put them in the oven and Annada eagerly watched them bake.
I probably should have warned her it takes a while for pretzels to cool off.
Annada is in that stage of toddlerhood when emotions hit her completely and quickly. So literally one moment she was lying on the floor weeping with sorrow that I wouldn’t give her a pretzel; the next second it registered that her special little pretzel was going in the fridge to cool off so she could eat it. She jumped up, clasped her hands and – this is one of Marc and I’s favorite Annada expressions – stomped her feet as she giggled for joy.
Ah… I love that!
