Cooking up a Mother's Day story

M is for the many things she taught us, especially in the kitchen.

For Mother’s Day, I’d like to hear from anyone who is a mother or has a mother (and that’s just about all of us, isn’t it?)

For mothers, is there one thing you wish your children -- adult or otherwise -- knew about cooking and feeding themselves?

And for the rest of you: What’s the most important thing your mother taught you about food and cooking?
