YAY!

So … what is her next project?

I still think Julia Child’s boeuf bourguinon is fantastic, and a great dish to learn to make =)

And if you have leftover tapioca you can do like my mother-in-law used to do and separate the eggs called for. Cook the tapioca as directed and then fold the beaten egg whites in for a fluffier pudding.

The recipe is probably on the box.

It will give your daughter a lesson in beating egg whites and the fine art of “folding in.” Heh.
