Today the kids went to Sunday rugby. Beforehand Terry made a full breakfast and I started bread. After we came back: pumpkin puree, pumpkin bread, applesauce, bread, oatmeal cookies, and homemade dinner. It was quite a day.
We have friends with now-adult children. When we met them their youngest was a teenager. They used to tell us to get the kids in the kitchen as young as possible. Part of the reason today's kitchen-fest was possible was that the kids helped and - as importantly - didn't need supervision so that it was help, not "help".
We still haven't convinced ourselves to work on their knife skills, though.
