It was a miserable rainy day, which made it perfect for making cookies!! Beaker was very, VERY excited. Since there was no sharp tools involved, he was allowed to help.
The butter was set out to soften for the cookies. Beaker kept poking it to see if it was soft enough. It was taking too long, so he tried to help it:
Beaker thought having it wrapped in a blankie would make it warm. But that still didn't go fast enough for him. I caught him trying to take the butter outside for the broodies to sit on. He's a handful, but he is kinda smart!!
Finally the butter was soft enough.
" Ok, Beaker, add the flour a little bit at a time, slo.. Beaker!! SLOWLY!!
Oh, Beaker....
I couldn't take pictures of him decorating the cookies. Not without a helper. I had to keep him from eating all the dough. Even trying to keep a close eye on him, I found sprinkles all over the kitchen. I let the dog out, and when she came in, she was dripping red and green. I guess she was covered in sprinkles before she went out in the rain. And there was some cookie dough stuck to the ceiling.
Beaker watched the cookies cool.
