Rabbit's Favorite Carrot Soup


Lydia's favorite animal is a rabbit. She's always loved bunnies, so when we found this book called "Rabbit's Favorite Carrot Soup" at the library she was pretty excited. The end of the book has a recipe for carrot soup and she decided we should try to make it. She has been really interested in helping in the kitchen lately. The next morning we went out and bought the carrots and celery. We spent the afternoon peeling, boiling, and blending. We had carrot soup for dinner and Lydia was very proud of herself. Only problem, the kids hated it - including Lydia! But this was one meal I didn't have to convince her to finish. She just quitely sat there. Sipping very very slowly (it took her over an hour to finish one small bowl). But every time I took out the camera she put on a smile as if she really loved this carrot soup. It really is pretty tasty, just not to my kids liking (their tastebuds are so Asian!).

Soooooo sweet! Poor Lydia having to finish the carrot soup.

I would love to get together for a play date at the Park Kris. Next week is pretty crazy for us, Jon's mom is coming in. I will e-mail or call you soon.
