Hate to tell you that...:-) I super extra love this. Hate to tell you that as much as you teach her about cooking she'll still call, cradle the phone and you'll have to walk her through whatever something she forgot how to cook or some new thing she wants to try. LOL... I was TRAINED by my grandmother and cooked, baked, etc. from scratch most of my life and still would call my mom. Same with my oldest daughter who just finished her first year of college. She's an excellent cook, but I sometimes still get calls. It's like a right of passage or something.<br /><br />I can't wait to hear more about the life skills lessons this summer, the novel and how many times dinner was ready by 6. :-D Good luck... Oh, if it works can you send them over here for a little while? ;-)Petulahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11246335892746223347noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4193894046294651875.post-732431564239483012010-06-04T15:54:15.392-07:002010-06-04T15:54:15.392-07:00Okay, time to remove those rose tinted glasses - j...Okay, time to remove those rose tinted glasses - just for a second... ooops, no. Put them back on quick!!! I've been training my kids too - every Saturday morning is cleaning morning and they're all expected to pitch in and help. We have varying degrees of success - their personalities dictate the results (miss meticulous does wonderful cleaning, miss arty is pretty slap dash....) Of course, mine definitely don't do it without prompting. I hope yours do! Good luck !!!Annette Piperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14798167381076660096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4193894046294651875.post-74778138548336651882010-06-03T15:46:42.258-07:002010-06-03T15:46:42.258-07:00lemme know how that works for you.

I was laughing tonight as we had a "frozen dinner night" and two of the dishes had different reheat times. <br /><br />To navigate a 14 year old through the intricacy of putting the meat in first of 13 minutes (no I know it said 25, but... the eggrolls said 12)...<br /><br />Yeah, I wondered how she managed in honors math. <br /><br />Okay then. <br /><br />I repeat. Lemme know how that works for you, I may give it a shot.FreshGreenKimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12815693641933892148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4193894046294651875.post-61178210783754400972010-06-03T14:52:17.979-07:002010-06-03T14:52:17.979-07:00My sides are aching from the laughter.
