Does he ever make up recipes? I remember doing that when starting to cook. Some of those recipes... well, some would have been better left un-created, judging from the reactions at the table. But some have become family favorites, even though they might use combos that seem a bit odd from the traditional angle.<br /><br />And I agree with Ed - steamed dumplings are delicious!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1412316033303635508.post-8181569573887948722010-01-12T09:07:21.155-06:002010-01-12T09:07:21.155-06:00Oooh, a new baby.

You know, because I have all that time off already.<br /><br />And then I remember that I'm not having any more babies, I can't afford any more babies, and there's a reason I became a foster parent!!Jen (emsun.org)https://www.blogger.com/profile/15262746716973961624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1412316033303635508.post-26296473841436678772010-01-12T07:57:36.089-06:002010-01-12T07:57:36.089-06:00We steam lots of things in our household using the...We steam lots of things in our household using the aluminum equivalent of a bamboo steamer. I blame marrying a Filipina for that but I really enjoy it. But my favorite by far is steamed dumplings.Edhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13214319366049620074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1412316033303635508.post-39965237336302039332010-01-12T07:15:56.177-06:002010-01-12T07:15:56.177-06:00When our kids reached the age where they could coo...When our kids reached the age where they could cook, I made them each cook one night a week. One did the dinner, one the dessert. The next week, they switched. Now, many, many years later, they both are good cooks. Son Brien likes to cook meals and Kelly has become a pretty good dessert maker! I never regretted making them "do" dinner. They had to decide what they wanted, I bought the ingredience and they cooked and served. It was great. It also makes them appreciate the time you put into making dinner. Three cheers for Chef I12!! ...debbieAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1412316033303635508.post-4879804785515395772010-01-12T06:29:54.436-06:002010-01-12T06:29:54.436-06:00Yum!
