The boys and I figured it was about time we celebrated a holiday, lucky for us it was National Corn Fritter Day – something new to try.
This boy is a ball of energy and always so excited to help me cook but as soon as it’s picture time I get this bored expression… hmm…
Thankfully Jack helped me out – we all need a good smile to make our day!
Frying up some corn fritters – the ones I baked didn’t turn out so fried they stay.
Look at this crispy beauty!
Jeffrey really liked them but of course gave me a non-committal face…
And Jack refused to eat anything but Mango so maybe it’s just me who likes to try new things?
I loved mine with avocado. I bet sour cream would taste great too!
