lunch anyone?

Today at lunch we were trying to figure out what to have and I suggested macaroni and cheese. Jennifer thought this was a great idea, here is what process looked like next...

Bill asked Jennifer to get the pan out for the roni cheese (as Jennifer calls it) and you can see her choice of pans on the counter behind her, Bill's choice is on the stove in the background.
After much discussion between Bill and Jennifer about which pan would be the best choice to use the actually make the roni cheese Bill decided to let Jen do her thing. "No dad's pan, my pan" was Jennifer's response. Dumping the roni onto the pan.

As you can see she thinks this is pretty great!
Here is where Jen's recipe differs a little from the original. As we were deciding to have roni cheese for lunch Jennifer thought yogurt was a great choice as well. So she decided that maybe we could just combine the two. After dumping the roni on the pan Bill asked her what was next. She picked up the yogurt and wanted to dump it on the roni. (This was our last box of macaroni otherwise Bill said he would have let her dump the yogurt, just for fun!) Lastly comes the cheese, Bill had to be quick on this one because just like the yogurt she would have opened it right up and dumped away. Jennifer finally gave into Bill's idea after much discussion. I was feeding Mikayla during this whole process and I must admit I was pretty sure the roni was going all over the floor right here! Bill handed Jen the pan to take her picture, not a great idea in my mind but it worked out fine.

Finally enjoying the finished product. If anyone is ever interested in lunch (or any meal for that matter) we have a great chef on our hands, come on over!
