After one attempt which saw her fail to coordinate her feet - 'turn a little faster,' she told the boys - she successfully jumped into the rope's turning rhythm the second time around.

Her performance drew a round of applause from the team as well as the audience.

Titled the White House Kitchen Garden Crostini which blended lavender-crusted goat's cheese, balsamic-black pepper reduction and sauteed onions.
'This is really good,' she told Mr Forgioni.
Mrs Obama, who has released her own cook book titled American Grown: The Story Of The White House Garden And Gardens Across America, said: 'The point is that's what vegetables should be and if kids grow up tasting that... parents all you need is a reduction!'
