I've sent beef to school with them and groceries too. No you're not a bad mom because your guys cook Ramen noodles. My kids love it, and always have. What I want is to know that at least they *can* feed themselves if they choose to. I really hope J. chooses to. We shall see.<br /><br />JodyGumbo Lilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02747138637571716591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6095103946834851624.post-38895053102347069152011-02-05T07:56:12.520-07:002011-02-05T07:56:12.520-07:00Does that make me a bad mom because my college boy...Does that make me a bad mom because my college boys eat a lot Ramen? I think not. The motivation to cook has to be there and I think they actually enjoy having some "roughing it" stories to tell...weird.<br /><br />I have given them ideas (and groceries!), but it's like that old "you can lead a horse to water, but you can't make them drink" saying. I'll keep trying! These recipes sound easy and good for anybody. <br /><br />MonicaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6095103946834851624.post-43055836206331167832011-02-04T11:05:32.852-07:002011-02-04T11:05:32.852-07:00I love these recipes!

That's one thing I plan to do--and have started to do a little with Jack--teach my boys to cook! Their wives will thank me later, right? Right?<br /><br /> I remember cooking when I was first on my own, and those memories are sad, sad, sad. Wish I'd known then what I know now ...<br /><br />xofrancesLeft-Handed Housewifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15014518128739580267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6095103946834851624.post-76306553442967288482011-02-04T05:48:14.358-07:002011-02-04T05:48:14.358-07:00You are such a rich resource to your children and ...You are such a rich resource to your children and to all of us.

I also 'encouraged' my son to learn to cook when he was young b/c (I told him) he needed to know how to cook so he didn't end up living on frozen pizza when he went to college. He's now grown (very grown) and a good cook -- and he likes it. Does this mean I did one thing right as a mom ;)?!<br />Blessings,<br />GGGigihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14709314864693421679noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6095103946834851624.post-78806369272954637172011-02-03T14:53:56.706-07:002011-02-03T14:53:56.706-07:00Oh, that sounds so fun Jody!

He got a wok for Christmas, so I'm hoping that next time I visit him, I'll be able to show him what he hasn't learned already. Your recipes look divine!Thimbleannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03650582809426872051noreply@blogger.com
