6-year-old’s cookbook idea helps feed the hungry
What a great story in today’s Daily herald!
“Roughly a year ago, Carson (Pazden) decided he wanted to help provide food for other children. Working with his mother, he came up with the idea of a children’s cookbook as a fundraiser that would feature recipes submitted mostly by kids and would be geared toward beginner cooks.
“I just want to feed all of the hungry children,” Carson said of the project, which has raised more than $20,000 to help feed hungry kids.
Carson and his mother sought recipes from his school community, Countryside Elementary School in Barrington, as well as from their neighborhood, family and friends. They wrote away to celebrities and received recipes back from the likes of Oprah Winfrey, Maria Shriver, Chris O’Donnell and Sean Hayes.”
The whole story (and information on ordering the book) is at the Daily Herald.
