He says he's going to open up a restaurant one day. He enjoys food and is fascinated with how it's prepared. We're working on fanning the flame of his interest.

Even before they started chopping with butter knives they shredded lettuce with their hands. Mixing and stirring is another activity they love. They also love kneading--bread doughs and pizza doughs. I set out bowls of ingredients and they make their own pizzas, burritos, fruit salads, etc. FUN!!! My kids love to cook!
