One More Bite Cooking School Is On The Air

Marlee and Grandma B had been doing a lot of practice cooking for Marleewood's One More Bite Cooking School. Today they decided that they would start with showing Marlee's friends in the neighborhood how to make a breakfast of scrambled eggs and sausage and toast. The camera person had to take two (2) videos because Marlee had the hiccoughs which happens you know.
Marlee had been in a hurry to get busy this morning and forgot to wear her apron. She made a reach for a napkin to wipe off her hands which is pretty good for a two year old cook.
Marlee loves food just like Julia Child did, the famous cook. She also likes to cook food for herself and others. Someday maybe she will fix breakfast for her mama and daddy on Mother's Day and Father's Day.
For today's recipe for scrambled eggs Marlee has added sour cream to the eggs as you can see. The sour cream adds flavor, creaminess, and makes the eggs fluffy. Marlee shows us just the right way to stir the eggs with a kitchen tool called a whisk. Marlee keeps picking up the egg shells so that not any of the shells get into her special recipe. Has anyone ever gotten an egg shell in your eggs.? Yuk, they are hard and not good to eat.
Next you put butter in a pan on the stove, which Grandma B does for Marlee. You must always have a grownup in the kitchen when you cook. Always remember that, okay? Then Grandma B heats up the pan to just the right temperature and pours the egg mixture into the pan. Some Grandmas put cheese in the scrambled eggs for even a different taste. I couldn't see if Marlee did that or not. I know she uses cheese in her other meals. We will watch her other shows another day and see her special, what grownups call technique or special way she does things.
The next video will show Marlee being a bit more particular with her teaching skills. She will talk to you and say Bon Appetit just like Julia Child used to.
What happens when you cook? We talked about that yesterday. Cooking makes the kitchen smell wonderful! When you cook something good it makes people hungry. Who else does it make hungry? I think I hear something outside. Oh look, remember today is Halloween. Here is an early trick or treat dog. I think he smelled the wonderful breakfast that Marlee and Grandma B made for the One More Bite Cooking School. He is Salem the Super Dog! How fun. Do you think that Marlee will give him a treat? Do you remember that Grandma B and Marlee also make dog treats, don't they? He is a very nice dog and helps take care of a cute little baby girl.
Later on today there will be lots of trick or treaters in your neighborhood and at Marleewood too. They won't be here until tonight, but tomorrow there will be all kinds of pictures of grownups and children even babies in their fun costumes. Some like to be scary, some like to be silly but most are just plain fun.

Do you remember that Marleewood has two (2) kitchens? Well today both of them are being used. Marlee was cooking in one and  in the other kitchen there are children that are carving pumpkins for jack o'lanterns. In the fall pumpkins decorate our porches most of the time. Some are real and some are not. Brandon is showing us his jack o'lantern and look there is a whole table with children carving out their pumpkins. There are all kinds of seeds and stuff inside of them, that's why the children used big spoons.
What kind of treats do people give the children that knock on their door, candy?
 Tomorrow we will hear another old story a true story about four (4) children that used to go Trick Or Treating a long long time ago. They lived far far away from Marleewood, but they had lots of fun. Where they lived it was really cold at Halloween time. It will be fun to hear that story.
