Cooking with Littles.....

Me:  "Hey guys, let's make chocolate granola!....just hold on a second while I switch out the laundry...."

Henry:  (quietly goes into the kitchen and reemerges carrying a giant glass jar)  "Here mommy, I've got the jar of chocolate......."

.....I'm not sure if there's anything worse to clean up than molasses mixed with glass....at least it didn't land on the carpet.  If he had made it a few inches further I'm not sure I would have been able to see the humor in the situation......and thank goodness it wasn't actually a jar of chocolate either....I also would not have seen the humor if I had lost that much chocolate in one fell swoop......

Ah, the joys of cooking with so many little hands to help :)
