Raw chicken!!

Raw chicken has always freaked me out! So many possibilities for germs, and just plain gross. Today, I set my fears aside and let Ava help me make dinner. After all, we are all washable, right?? That's what I kept telling myself as I watched her handle it. She felt quite empowered too, since she knows how Mommy feels about touching raw meat! When I asked her if she wanted to help me with the raw chicken, she was like "what?!! really?? I won't get sick??" That right there was enough to show me that I really need to let my guard down, or my kids will never know how to cook!! I love this sweet kid SO much. She has the cutest, goofiest personality!
