[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I came from a family of four children. My mom and oldest sister did all the cooking except my dad would grill on Sundays. My middle sister and I would prepare a salad, set the table, clean up and bake during the holidays. My baby brother did nothing. My oldest sister became a gourmet cook, while the rest of us taught ourselves and became average cooks. DH's mom did all the cooking so he never learned to cook but can do basic grilling and make an omelet. [/quote] OP again. We had a similar dynamic, I was always helping and my younger sister never. I learned to cook, and, if I may say without false modesty, I cook well. But my sister can't cook at all. However, I made the same mistake as your mom. I cooked all the time and didn't teach my kids to cook. This summer was the first summer that my son came from his apartment in Arlington to the house for me to teach him to cook my everyday dishes.[/quote]
