You will laugh. I grew up hungry as a kid in Virginia, I rode thousands of miles on my bike fishing or exploring new woods. I think I was 11 and had been biking all day, and passed a Mom & Pop Cafe around 3pm and smelled a burger cooking. Didn't have any money, but went in and asked the cook/owner if I could sweep out the place in exchfor a burger. He said yes, but I had to cook my own burger and he would show me how. Except for mowing lawns, that was my first job and first cooking experience. After that, I would stop by that Cafe on a Saturday afternoon when not much was going on, sweep the place and make me a hamburger, with fried onions.

At Bob's in Wilton, I learned how to work a charcoal grill, but never actually worked there. He would let me cook my own burger or hotdogs for half price. His shakes were the best. Always loved to cook, even with the Boy Scouts, through hi G school, college and beyond. Always cooked at hunting camp as well. It's not work for me.
