Chef Rylie?

The other day Rylie was holding a stick and an apple by the pellet fireplace in our house and came up with a great idea. She thought she would put the apple on the stick and cook it in front of the fire. She worked on that for about 20 minutes. Then she decided the apple was too squishy (she had dropped it about 100 times off her stick, we taped it and everything and it just wouldn't stay on). So then she decided to peel it and cook it on the stove. After peeling it, by herself, she had me cut it and up it in some water on the stove.

She is doing this while I am half paying attention, trying to finish a project befor dinnertime.

Then she says she needs some sugar to cook it in. She tests the apples several times before deciding they were "done". Then she wanted to put some bread on them and eat it. This is when I started to pay attention and suggested adding oatmeal on top with some butter and brown sugar. Then we cooked it for a little while longer in the oven. She pulled it out of the oven by herself and was very excited about it.

We ate it for dessert and it was quite good!
