Mentoring in the Kitchen















Daniel moved back in with us in December. Since he last moved out his eyes have been open to reality. During his first and second stint living with us, we had to beg him to help out with the daily chores. Now he chips in not only by helping clean up but he also buys some of the groceries. He also figured out that eating out every meal is expensive and that a good home cooked meal isn’t as easy as it looks. He asked me to teach him to cook so I am throwing him head first into the kitchen. Last night he made steel cut oats that cooked until morning. It was a tasty breakfast. We had some old bananas so this morning he cooked up his first batch of banana bread. Its still cooking so I can’t report if its tasty or not; however, it smells wonderful!
