I think I was around 2.5 years old. I was sitting on my grandmother's kitchen floor while she cooked at the stove. I was surrounded by pots and pans, a plastic bowl or two, and I had a wooden spoon held high in the air, sure to come banging down on something. That grandmother practically was a second mom to me, so it's a fond memory. She raised 5 kids of her own in a tiny house, so I guess noise didn't bother her much, considering they couldn't go outside in rainy weather.
