When I was about three years old, my mother started sitting me down at the kitchen table with her green Pyrex mixing bowl, some measuring cups, flour, water and food color, and let me pretend that I was cooking right along with her.
When I was four years old, I got my very own Easy Bake Oven and started making "fabulous" cakes and muffins. By the time I was 25, I had already won several awards for my breads, pickles and jams.
