Cooking Fun

Today, I went to the library with my friend Juliana for a cool event called 'Walk Into The Book'. The book was 'The Ugly Vegetables" by Grace Lin. It was about a Chinese family that plants a vegetable garden while their neighbors all plant flowers. It was a good story, but the best part was the activities afterward. They had a ton of activities set up for us kids, including an area where we could plant our own mystery seeds to bring home (I can't wait for mine to sprout!). But my favorite part was the kitchen area. In the book, the mom makes delicious soup with the ugly vegetables so they set up a little kitchen area with pots, spoons and fake vegetables. Juliana and I had so much fun making some pretend soup for our moms. We also got to check out the cool vegetable and flower plants that the library people made. Then it was time for a snack of goldfish and pretzels. Yum! We had so much fun there and we can't wait for the library to do it again! As for my walking update, I'm still not totally walking but I can definitely take 5-6 steps before I get nervous and sit down. Maybe by my birthday I'll be walking totally on my own!
