Can't wait to hear what your precious one does with this task he's been given.

I don't have a story to tell about myself but your post brought one of my neighbors to mind. She lives alone with her two old dogs and a cat. She cooks her pet's meals in bulk and also cooks for herself like that. Inveriably, another neighbor will come to her mind and she shares one serving portions with these people. I've often been a recipient of these goodies.

She not only brings me my portion but she also shares the recipe, especially if she has just found the recipe in a magazine or seen it on TV.
The telling of the recipe is usually filled with humor so that's an added "gift."
