When was the last time you played with 
Play-Doh?  Well, I'm here to tell you that it has been too long.  What Play-Doh toys did you have as a kid?  I had the hair salon, where you could squirt the Play-Doh up through the barber chair then use little scissors to trim it to different lengths and styles.  There was even a mold for bouffants.
Alas, that set is long gone, but when I was visiting my parents last weekend, I got to play with the 
Play-Doh Burger Builder set with their five year-old neighbor, Hannah.  We had a blast!

I made a giant double-decker veggie burger,
complete with fries and ketchup.

Hannah made a futuristic-burger in colors
not known to us currently, but soon...

Here are all the yummy ingredients to my veggie burger,
including extra pickles like I like.

Then I was bored with burgers, so I made an heirloom tomato plate...

And sushi.  Made with brown rice.  With the confidence of a five year-old, Hannah is familiar with all types of food.  When I told her I was making sushi, of course she knew what it was, "My dad makes it all the time and eats it up.  He makes the black kind."  I asked her, "With rice?"  And she said, "There isn't any rice in sushi!  It's candy!"
Lot's of fun to make pretend food...
