This is the impromptu activity my lovely daughter and I did tonight. We have some Chocolate-covered Strawberry Recipes that are fun and sweet for kids of all ages.
As soon as she saw me take the strawberries and the chocolate chips out, she was happily offering to help. How could I even explain to you her excitement? She has been under the weather and it melted my heart to see her so willing to help and participate.
