Bola Bola Time with Nana

My kids love to help in the kitchen whenever they can. Even though it can cause a huge mess I love sharing those precious moments with them. Here's one moment I was able to capture. My mom (a.k.a. "Nana") came over the morning of New Year's Eve to help set up for family to come over later that night. She needed help making the bola bola for the ginataan that she planned on making later on. If you're reading this and you're Filipino or you have Filipino friends, hopefully you'll know what I'm talking about. If you don't, ginataan is sort of like a dessert with the look and consistancy of soup. It's really good! And the bola bola is the soft white "balls" in the ginataan. Anyway, Nana had a special surprise for the kids. They were going to be the special bola bola makers. Here's what the scene looked like. It was so much fun!
