Lovely reminder of how important it is to share our passions, whether it be for baking, cooking or fly fishing with our children. This summer when we found ourselves unencumbered with camps or other activities, I let my 3 sons each pick a recipe to make with me. My eldest chose donut muffins (he shares his mommy's love for cinnamon), my middle chose spaghetti & meatballs (you should have seen him swell with pride when big brother came into the kitchen with garlic & fresh herbs wafting through the air and declared, "Wow! That smells awesome!") and youngest chose cinnamon rolls (again, their love of cinnamon is genetic). Looking back, this is probably my favorite memory from the whole summer.
