So, how do you chop nuts for biscotti?

Ela and Mama got to bake a whole bunch of cookies today.  It was awesome.  Ela has the most important jobs, which include pouring, stirring, rolling into balls, dipping in sugar, chopping nuts, and tasting.  Mama has boring jobs, like measuring, melting on the stove, stirring in all the flour, and putting things in the oven and taking them out with her oven mitts.

Fortunately, Ela is very creative, and likes to figure out new ways of doing things, like chopping nuts.
