Saving Kids’ Cooking Memories

My niece recently told us about her two teen sons preparing supper.

The kitchen filled with smoke and the meal wasn’t gourmet by any means. However, as my daughter (her cousin) responded, “At least they tried! That was something.”

Perhaps the boys will give another try if Mother is patient, She’ll have kitchen helpers and sons who can prepare their meals when they’re on their own. Also, my niece will have this as one of those memories to share in years to come.

Why not write down some of these memories about your cooking and your children’s attempts? Also, compile memories about family gatherings and holiday meals. These all mean so much in future years and to future generations. They become part of your family heritage.  Along with this, collect and save family recipes.
