chef |SHef| noun a professional cook, typically the chief cook in a restaurant or hotel.
Three years old, I tell ya, this age has given me a run for my money. I hear it being called “Threenager” often, and I have to say, it’s pretty accurate. One moment he is the sweetest little guy, the next minute a holy terror. It’s constantly crazy. One thing I love about this age though, is his inclination for pretend play. I love the way he uses his imagination. As of late he’s been enjoying being a chef. My sister got him a chef’s apron and hat for his birthday last year, and its only now, he’s really started playing with it. He also is influenced by my boyfriend, a chef.
On this particular day we broke out his letter magnets, some oven mitts (which he loved), a big spoon and bowl, and made alphabet soup. On top of that he made some pretty mean foam animal cookies. Under his bed acted as the oven and each meal had to cook for 13 minutes according to his recipe. Afterwards he shared his creations with me. I ate soup on a napkin with my hands, he ate his in a bowl with his oven mitts on! Bring it on Threenager! Love this guy!
