2. Make a cake from scratch.
3. And learn how to fold a towel or blanket in "mid-air", meaning she didn't want to have to lay it on some sort of surface to fold it.
I was so impressed with her list. Isn't it great?
This summer, she got her very own, and very cute, pink blowdryer, and crossed #1 off her list. We never made a cake from scratch (unless the EZ Bake oven counts) but we made a few other desserts and she learned to do some other cooking as well, which she LOVED. And she did in fact learn to fold towels and blankets while holding them...without laying them down. As a bonus, she got to enjoy the satisfaction that comes from setting a goal and reaching it.
So, I didn't do everything I wanted to do, but I did most of it, and I'm good with that. I'm hoping to go to a Rockies game next weekend to make up for #7. If I can persuade John to ride the light rail to the stadium, I might even knock out #15 too. We'll see.
Sarah's goal about the towels made me think of how I am terrible at folding fitted sheets!
