When did you start cooking/baking?

My first memories of cooking and baking were when my parents bought me an Easy Bake Oven for Christmas! I think I ran through all the mixes that were included with the box in less than a week.  I quickly graduated to the big oven and my mom taught me how to make cakes and cookies from scratch.  I was so excited!

During the summers when I wasn’t going to camps, volunteering or outside playing, I was inside baking cookies, cakes and other treats with my friends.  My parents would come home from work to a house that smelled like a bakery and a table full of yummy treats.
