Live Chat! Kids in the Kitchen
Join me Thursday, Oct. 12 at 1 p.m. ET (10 a.m. PT) for a "chat" on one of my all time favorite subjects--kids in the kitchen! It's part of a 4-week course on combating childhood obesity.
I've been cooking with kids for about 13 years now. When my oldest daughter was 2, I noticed she was interested in helping in the kitchen, so I started letting her help me with certain food steps. A couple years later I wrote the cookbook, SOMEONE'S IN THE KITCHEN WITH MOMMY, which is a cookbook designed for cooking with toddlers on up.
Over the years I've cooked in both of my daughter's classrooms, I've cooked with girl scout troops, and nieces and nephews and after all of this cooking with kids, you know what I've learned? That there is magic in it. Much like how everyone seems to be physically drawn to the kitchen during parties and holidays. There's something about cooking with kids that makes them smile, that makes them feel good about themselves, that helps them be open minded about trying new foods, that gets them talking about what's really going on in their lives and in their hearts (This part comes in handy when you are cooking with your "teen" children BTW).

I was just wondering where I can get information on E-Coli Poisoning and the symptoms of it.
Hi Sara --
Try a search on e.Coli -- this will be one of your first results. :)

I apologise for a totally irrelevant posting but I don't know another way to get to an on-line RD!
My father taught me MANY years ago to eat a lot of bone. I eat epipheses of all poultry bones and entire backbones of well-cooked poultry. I also eat a lot of pork bone. I have followed Dad's teaching for 6 decades, but I am wondering what is the bioavailability of the calcium and phosphorous from bone itself. I would ask about harm, but based on my decades of the habit I think it must be safe at least for me.
Don't eat bones.
hello everyone, im leaha! hope all is well
