Kids make meatloaf -- the video

We all need a laugh as well as a Dinner Together this snow-challenged week, and this video fills the bill:

Logan and Jasmine show us the unvarnished side of kids cooking. I love when they're mixing the meatloaf and there's the following exchange:

Logan: "Let's put our hands in there and then grab, twist; grab, twist."
Jasmine: "Eeew."
Logan: "Grab and twist."
Jasmine: "Eeew."
Logan: "Grab and twist."
Jasmine: "Eeew."
Logan: "And make sure to make the meatloaf really, really good."
Then, of course, there's the part where they crack up over the sound the immersion blender makes as they are pulverizing the mashed potatoes. And the even smaller child asking for Mom's help in the background.

Those kids are adorable! And it never occurred to me to cook meatloaf on a broiling pan. Those kids are geniuses!
