Child labor is illegal

10-year old C. came over and made us dynamite carbonara, and even though the prep was not perfect (she did not mention she needed heavy cream). We also made a mean chili con carne together. I can recommend her as a cook for hire.

"However," says C., "I am a child, and child labor is illegal. But you know what? I can pretend to be cooking just because I enjoy cooking, and you can pretend that you are giving me the money a gift, as adults give kids gifts. So you are really paying me, but we pretend it's all for fun, OK?"







Child labor injury - as she was mincing jalapeno, a drop of jalapeno fluid flew into her eye. Ouch! and a red eye.
