History of the plant in the U.S.A., along with its cultural significance, ol' boll weevil, slavery, Civil War, rebuilding of commerce in war torn areas and its continued impact and importance today.

My husband is a great cook, my son specializes in outdoor cooking and my grandson loves preparing his favorite meals. So, I am in complete agreement that men should be comfortable in the kitchen.

I love to eat out, but can't imagine doing it all the time. My hubs makes a great omelette and is a master of the grill. He can fend for himself in the kitchen, but I love to cook so do most of it myself. Enjoy your day!Joycehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16727615822243830106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1260159263783917143.post-13071354843676022472017-08-31T06:37:59.732-04:002017-08-31T06:37:59.732-04:00I agree it's important to know basic skills.I agree it's important to know basic skills.A Joyful Chaoshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13647481484192797931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1260159263783917143.post-45251873085520077492017-08-31T06:37:08.570-04:002017-08-31T06:37:08.570-04:00We've never stopped at Columbia.

If you eat you should cook. Why? If you do not learn to care for yourself, then who will? Male and female should view food as survival skills. A part of life. Life is unpredictable. Better to have those sills and not need them than it is to need them and not have them.

My 4 brothers are all great cooks. Mom made sure they knew how to cook along with us 3 girls. They also do a good cleaning job and laundry too. My son and both my sons in law are very good cooks as well and pitch in with the laundry, cleaning, whatever needs doing. Plus they are good daddieskruethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05921074648456614644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1260159263783917143.post-80666975578268910432017-08-30T12:59:29.274-04:002017-08-30T12:59:29.274-04:00I taught both of my boys to cook, clean and do lau...I taught both of my boys to cook, clean and do laundry right alongside their sister. They both have used those skills, although our 28 year old who is single and lives on his own in Japan, appreciates it the most. He's always thanking me for making them learn those skills. He also asks for family favorites recipes when he gets particularly homesick!<br />When I was homeschooling all three Betsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00807691752817225336noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1260159263783917143.post-84218280493339832972017-08-30T09:55:36.319-04:002017-08-30T09:55:36.319-04:00You're so right about the perks of motherhood!...You're so right about the perks of motherhood!<br />Good for you for teaching the guys of your household how to cook a few things, so they can fend for themselves, if needed.<br />Hope that hike is possible today.
