One morning last week Ryan not only wanted to play with the hand mixer, but he wanted to take it to our stroller class with him. At first I protested - a hand mixer has no place at the park! But we were running late, and he seemed dead set on bringing it along, so I gave in, with the agreement that it would stay in the stroller and not take a tour around the sand box. I didn't think twice about it until we showed up for class and the instructor did a double take and started laughing. "What's he holding? Is that a real hand mixer?" she asked. "Whatever gets us out of the house!" I replied. A few other moms of toddlers gave me a knowing nod - there are definitely some days when you'll grant any and all crazy requests just to close the door behind you and join the outside world.
Turns out, Ryan is a trend setter. By Friday, one boy convinced his mom to let him bring an ice cream scoop to class, and another had successfully pleaded for a new (toy) blender for his 3rd birthday. That's my guy - helping out fellow kitchen gadget lovers realize their dreams!

yes! It will be a revolution of future men-who-cook! I say keep the kitchen passion alive, and then he can woo the ladies with his kitchen skills!
