ABSTRACT
From the day the author's daughter was born, she had no interest in food. As the author's daughter grew up her husband and she, who both love food, began to dread mealtime, as they would consist of hours of coaxing, bribing and nagging. The author just wanted her daughter to love food and have happy memories of it. That's when it hit her like a light bulb moment that in hindsight she believes was an answer to prayer: she would cook with her! They started simply by doing things like buttering toast, peeling vegetables or whisking eggs and gradually progressed from there. Almost immediately, the author noticed their relationship change. The author decided that if this process could work for her daughter, then maybe it would help other parents, so she set up a social media site called Dotty's Kitchin to share their recipes and tips.
