Sometimes, I get a month off and they come up with a project for us to do. We finish each meeting off with lunch. They are all now proficient with chopsticks. (I can see my family laughing at this - Gaynor's are born knowing how to use those chopsticks). It was the first lesson my mother in law gave me, the first time I met her!
For further practice with chop sticks and an answer to a friend's question:
To my friend, Terri who asked what the meal was that I made the other night:It does look pretty scary based on the picture.
I call it "Stir Fry Adjusted" - it is what you make when you don't have the exact ingredients called for and you are too tired to go back out to the grocery store:
1 cup of thinly sliced onion, 1 T of garlic in the jar, 1 package of spinach leaves, 2 cups of broccoli florets (frozen), 1/3 cup of sugar snaps, 1/2 cup of red bell pepper, 2 T hoisin suace, 1 T of garlic - chili sauce, 1/2 c of peanuts& pecans chopped together - All of that stir fried in a wok with peanut oil. And then toss in 1/2 a box of cooked wheat linguine. Use good lighting if you take a photo or your great meal will look like the one above. Serve in a dimly lighted room and it will taste wonderful.

Yes, all Gaynor's, even the newest additions to the family, are quickly taught how to use chopsticks. . .and even eat sushi :)
Love the picture,
