Early Morning Baking

6am baking with daddy. Lea doing all the work, Jasmin is dealing out coconut flakes. Mmmmm... They are making Danish Tebirkes, "birkes" is poppy seeds. Not much else to do when it doesn't really get light till 8am. And still 6 weeks till the sun comes back... But the days are beautiful, clear and crisp, -3 degrees in the mornings.

Baking has become a common activity now, with the two little ones actually going into the cupboard, finding the bowls and getting ready at the counter. "NOW, lets bake!" The new kitchen has the ingenious island-counter where we can work on one side, the kids on the other. Real team work, no matter the business. Making lasagna, cutting vegetables, baking, stirring, arranging on platters, they are with me all the way, and I still have control over the situation.
