Bilbo ran upstairs calling for me. I didn't want to shout, so he ran into Arwen first:
Bilbo: "How many cups of flour go into chocolate chip cookies?"
Arwen: "At least a few."
Now, the standard recipe that I use calls for 2 1/4 cups flour, so I sort of thought three wasn't the worst guess. The conversation continued:
Bilbo: "how many is a few?"
Arwen: "like...six. I don't know, two, four, six...a bunch. Use how many it says on the peanut butter recipe." (This is in a kids cookbook that they can read; unfortunately, this recipe calls for one cup of flour and one cup of oatmeal)
I intervened, and luckily Legolas still took his nap.
