Holly: Mom wants us to cook dinner.
Alix: Can we DO that?
Holly: How hard can it be? She left us a recipe.
Alix: Tuna surprise?
Holly: I'm sure it WILL be with US in charge.
Alix: Let's add MARSHMALLOWS!
Holly is 13? She should be taking Home Economics in that grade and learning to cook (we also had sewing.)
My M-I-L said when she and her class mates were married one of her “rich” friends asked her how to cook an egg and boil water. Her mother probably never cooked and never taught her daughter,
I learned everything before getting into the Home Ec class and I mistakenly assumed all of the other girls did too, but guess not. Most had no idea how to plan a meal, how to shop for it and my meal was done cooking long before theirs.
