I haven't taught her much of anything of cooking. Her boyfriend is an energetic, creative, cook at a big restaurant nearby. He's only twenty-one and will probably run the kitchen in a couple of years - if he doesn't do something stupid first. I'm not so sure she's learning anything from him either.

We went to a Japanese/Korean grill your own restaurant today. My son ordered some kind of funny looking pale substance to grill. Normally I would have assumed it was chicken but was surprised to find out it was intestines. I tried some and it was like chewing on some rubber that oozed fat. I gave up after a while because my teeth was not able to break up that tissue. I am resolved to try some of those wacky things that my son will eat. Can pig uterus be next?

I kind of like it when the kids surprise me with the things they'll do. I really do want them to have lives of their own. So far so good.
