That was clearly not what she wanted to hear. \u00a0She was pretty upset at me. \u00a0So, I shared my woes with the first friend, Lisa, that showed up and she mentioned that\u00a0<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">her<\/span> daughter (just slightly younger than Chloe) had also mentioned how she wanted to come along to bake. \u00a0Lisa said something that really stuck with me&#8211;she said she wanted to encourage her daughter to have a love of cooking and baking NOW while she was interested. \u00a0I mean, I know I <strong><span style=\"text-decoration:
