Summary
Nika, a girl who was about to turn seven, loved helping her mom in the kitchen. She especially enjoyed making pancakes — her mom's secret recipe always turned out incredibly delicious. Today was a special day because her mom, Julia, had allowed Nica to make the pancakes all by herself.Mom helped Nika mix the batter. She showed her how to crack the eggs properly, add flour, milk, and a little salt. Nika grabbed a whisk and began to beat the mixture energetically. Nika made a whole stack of pancakes, each one perfect. She was proud of herself and eagerly awaited the moment she and her mom would eat them. While the pancakes cooled down, her mom brought out sour cream and butter.After the delicious breakfast, the plates and table were in a mess. Nika looked at all the dishes and decided that a real chef should know not only how to cook but also how to clean up afterward. That evening, when the whole family gathered around the table, Mom told Dad about how Nika had made the pancakes all by herself and washed all the dishes.
