Making brownies

This evening Pepe and I made brownies. This was a first for Pepe. He was very excited to help. He got his stool close to the counter, pour the package into the bowl, cracked the eggs, poured the oil and water, and stirred and stirred. At some point, I hear: "Hm, is this chocolate?", and the little hand start diving into the bowl. "This is yummy". The hand dives again, and again, and again. Pepe's face becomes chocolaty, along with his hands and sweater. Finally we pour the remaining mix into a couple of pans and Pepe is left with the bowl to lick...Down the memory lane I go to the times when my mom or Buni used to make goodies, and my brother and I would have to wait until the mix is poured into the pan, and then see who is quickest at getting to the bowl....
