You Need to Eat, Why Not Make Preparing It Fun!

Food preparation gives the cook power over what is prepared, at the desired nutritional level and how flavorous it is. Food preparation takes time, but time spent is reduced by having time-saving kitchen tools

Coming from a large family, I began preparing food at a young age, starting with peeling potatoes and carrots then advancing to baking Wacky Cake and cookies, and, when in junior high school, to preparing full meals. Skipping ahead to sixty-some years later, cooking and baking for others still pleases me.

The most vivid memory of my early baking experiences was proudly telling my Mom that I changed a recipe and the baked cookies were really good.  Being a sixth grader and telling her I did so by adding more vanilla to the chocolate chip cookie batter seemed to impress her.  She praised me knowing that the additional teaspoon of vanilla was of minor, if any, importance to the cookies' overall taste. Experimenting with new recipes or adding ingredients is fun, especially when using cooking and baking tools that make your efforts easier and more pleasurable.
