Me and my sister. <g> Betty Crocker has some of the best baking recipes,
and sis' is the baker in the family...

I'm going to give Dyson (my older nephew) a bit more time to mature,
then start teaching him to cook when I babysit. Sis' is not teaching him
yet either. He's just not quite ready yet. Not that coordinated.

He did, however, do well on the Onion skin egg dying, so that is a start.

I'm trying to decide how, where and when to start him.
