"I was so thrilled when my 8 year old son came home and told me about his cooking lesson at Chris and Mackenzie's house! He learned how to make fried egg and even flipped it perfectly on his first try. To my surprise I woke up the next morning to a delicious fried egg breakfast made by him. It was such a wonderful experience, and I can't thank Chris and Mackenzie enough for teaching him!" -Victoria R.
