<p>There were some little chefs (and a big chef) at our house tonight.  We were making a masterful meal for the queen of the home &#8211; our very own Mommy Chef.  It was Mommy Chef&#8217;s birthday, so what better way to celebrate than to make a meal for her!</p>
<p>Mommy Chef wanted to eat an <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/India">Indian</a> dish for dinner, so she searched far and wide, until she found two recipes that she wanted to make for dinner.  To the little chefs came the duty of making <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naan">Naan</a>.  This is a very special bread that we have never made before.  Boy was it fun to make!</p>
<p><a href="http://todd.gileszone.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/imgp0006.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-37" style="border: 5px solid black; margin: 5px; float: right;" title="Michael Chef" src="http://todd.gileszone.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/imgp0006-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a></p>
<p>There was an AWESOME chef named Michael.  He was a master of the sword (ok, the butter knife).  He wowed us all with his excellent skills &#8211; and he served as our master bread cutter for the night.  You wouldn&#8217;t want to run into him in a dark alley in the middle of the night.</p>
<p><a href="http://todd.gileszone.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/imgp00071.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-39" style="border: 5px solid black; margin: 5px; float: left;" title="Sweet Chef" src="http://todd.gileszone.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/imgp00071-225x300.jpg" alt="" width="225" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>.</p>
<p>.</p>
<p>.</p>
<p>.</p>
<p>.</p>
<p>There was a super duper sweet chef named Kaylee Ann ;)  As you can see &#8211; she loves cooking, and especially flattening dough before placing into the oven :)  She added the sweet spices necessary to make our bread complete.</p>
<p><a href="http://todd.gileszone.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/imgp0005.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-40" style="border: 5px solid black; margin: 5px; float: right;" title="Dough Boy" src="http://todd.gileszone.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/imgp0005-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a></p>
<p>.</p>
<p>.</p>
<p>.</p>
<p>.</p>
<p>.</p>
<p>.</p>
<p>Dough Boy could not keep the dough off his face / mouth / hands / etc&#8230;  He was excellent at <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kneading">kneading</a> the dough, getting it to the perfect consistency before tossing it into the oven ;)</p>
<p><a href="http://todd.gileszone.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/imgp0002.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-41" style="border: 5px solid black; margin: 5px; float: left;" title="Tiny Weanie Chef" src="http://todd.gileszone.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/imgp0002-162x300.jpg" alt="" width="162" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>.</p>
<p>.</p>
<p>.</p>
<p>.</p>
<p>And then there was Tiny Chef&#8230; kind of like our little wonder dog &#8211; he was watching all of us, and helping keep us all safe ;)  He even saved all the food from burning, at least that is what sweet chef tells me.</p>
<p><a href="http://todd.gileszone.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/imgp0004.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-42" style="border: 5px solid black; margin: 5px; float: right;" title="Into the Oven" src="http://todd.gileszone.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/imgp0004-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a></p>
<p>.</p>
<p>.</p>
<p>.</p>
<p>.</p>
<p>.</p>
<p>After making a healthy batch for Mommy Chef to enjoy, we decided to make our own &#8216;lil masterpieces to cook in the toaster oven&#8230; yummy to our tummies ;)</p>
<p>.</p>
<p>.</p>
<p>.</p>
<p>And that is the end of our story this evening&#8230; we hope you enjoyed this little episode of &#8220;Little Chefs&#8221;, we sure enjoyed being Chefs!</p>
