I just helped to put cookies on the tray. I didn't put anything in our out of the oven because of the risk of falling, so my mom did all of the oven stuff for me. When I bake, I do what I can while sitting at the table, and others do the tasks that require walking around.Rachel Lundyhttp://www.cranberryteatime.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7118510785451249376.post-49811240511583008712014-12-05T21:23:47.376-05:002014-12-05T21:23:47.376-05:00You amaze me in being able to do all of this bakin...You amaze me in being able to do all of this baking.
