My son, who has now presented me with my first grandchild, is trying
to help in the kitchen, so for Christmas, I gave him a cookbook
called, _A Man, A Can, and A Plan_. He LOVES it! It's about the most
bare bones cookbook you can imagine, made to withstand being dropped
into a boiling vat of beer and has 3 ingredients for each dish. I'm
not proud of having raised a kitchen-challenged child, mind you.
