Then he went through a stage where he wasn't interested. He's back next to me now, and more interested in doing things on his own. I can't wait for summer when we will have the time to do more cooking lessons.

Or even tomatoes--the first weeks they are gone in hours, gobbled up fresh and delicious when you're starved for a flavorful tomato. Then, later on, it's more like "oh. tomatoes. again. great." I'm working on an Asian chicken slaw right now for impending cabbage overload.<br /><br />Thanks!Kirstenhttp://www.farmfreshfeasts.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4689405125611757524.post-73124751701278959282013-04-12T03:43:13.714-07:002013-04-12T03:43:13.714-07:00Meghan,
