Grin, he has reasons but I'll let him explain. He may not want his chat
repeated. Lets just say, it's totally sensible in his case for another 2
years or so.

Grins! And it's not just a can of something either! Because I slept late,
she made lunch. (I work odd shifts so sometimes get off at 5am).

Horry, your son isnt up to parts of this one yet without supervision but he
may like to help with it. I'll add notes in adaptions he can do himself
when I get to those.

Charlotte made:

-Rice in the rice maker (no biggie, 1 part rice, 2 parts water)

-corn on the cob (use tongs to pull out of boiling water, Daddy had to help
husk as I'd frozen them whole)

-Fresh green beans with mirin and dashi seasoning (think, cooked in stock)

-Caremelized onions in butter and olive oil with tilapia and lemon pepper
seasoning (Horry, this one he needs help with or you may get blackened fish
by accident. Alternative recipe in his level if you have a microwave is use
a plastic baggie and coat the fish with lemon pepper and let sit in the
fridge a few hours. Then, remove to a microwave safe container and nuke
about 2 mins, test, then nuke a bit more as needed to your desired
doneness).
