Carissa Makes Bread


Carissa made some homemade bread the other day. She actually used the bread machine for the kneading part. It is a process but I think she rather likes it.

Last night she made spaghetti with meat sauce, while I made peach cobbler for dessert. Carissa put some spices in the meat sauce that made it taste excellent. I did not give her any advice, she just used her own judgement about what spices to use. She is well capable of making dinner every night without my input. Needless to say, there was just enough spaghetti left over for Brian to take for lunch.

Carissa is so different from many young girls. She values homemaking and farming. The other day, she told me she wouldn't mind marrying a farmer. Now, I don't know about that (I have nothing against farmers). I just told her that whom ever you marry will have to make it through your father first. Just think, in 5 years she will be 18. Yikes!!

Such nice conversations while working together in the kitchen.

I am truly enjoying getting to know Carissa! She is a very unique young lady, and a wonderful role model for my girls. You're doing an excellent job in teaching her how to be a homemaker, Tina!
