I have fond memories of cooking with my parents when I was little. Making “hard tack” was a favorite because the recipe directions included mixing with my hands. I didn’t even care for hard tack but it was such fun to make. My brother delights in reminding me of the time when I was perhaps 3 years old when my mother said I could stir the lettuce salad together. I happily stirred until the lettuce was limp and exhausted from my diligence.
