121: a little bit of good food

A nice, gentle Saturday story today, from Canada's 'National Post'. It outlines plans for a new kids' cooking school in Toronto, Canada. The school will introduce kids as young as three to the art of preparing tasty and healthy meals - with the aim of helping them appreciate good food, and avoid poor eating habits that can lead to obesity and other health problems. Meanwhile, the article says, cooking lessons will be made compulsory in UK schools, for the same reason (a return to 'Home Economics'?). It's good news for the kids involved - and for their parents too perhaps... After all, having the kids prepare dinner would be a lot cheaper than paying for a babysitter and going out!!
