In a recent Facebook post, Tyra Banks excitedly shared her new journey into the culinary world by enrolling in an intensive Boot Camp at the Culinary Institute of America in St. Helena. For those unfamiliar, the CIA is a prestigious cooking school that trains aspiring chefs.

Tyra, who openly admits she’s not exactly a culinary enthusiast, decided to take the plunge into cooking for a very special reason. “I’ve never been one to be very excited about cooking,” she confessed. “I’ve always focused my energy on my career and success, which meant dining out, ordering takeout, or popping frozen meals in the microwave. But everything changed when my son was born.”

Now, with her little one in mind, Tyra is determined to shift gears. “I want him to know that cooking isn’t just something that happens in fancy restaurants,” she expressed. “I don’t want the only meals he sees to come from the TV, with celebrity chefs creating their culinary masterpieces.”

Of course, there’s bound to be a day when her toddler shows more interest in spaghetti with butter than in her gourmet creations. “I want to be his personal chef,” she said. “I want him to go off to college and miss my cooking. I want all his friends to fight over coming to our house to try my delicious dishes.”

While that’s a sweet aspiration, parents know the reality: kids often have their own culinary preferences, and it may not include mom’s Michelin-star-worthy dishes. But don’t fret if your little one starts tossing their food—no matter how gourmet. The truth is, it’s not the recipe that makes mom’s meals special; it’s the love infused into them.

I remember my own parents’ cooking fondly, even the less-than-stellar dishes—like my dad’s overcooked broccoli that practically dissolved at the touch of a fork. I’d still gobble it up because it took me back to my childhood. And let’s be honest, if someone handed me a school lunch of two slices of rock-hard toasted wheat bread with spicy mustard and tough salami, I’d probably savor it and shed a tear, simply because it reminds me of the past.

So, whether you’re a cooking novice like Tyra or a seasoned pro, remember that your child will likely spend years rejecting your culinary endeavors. And even if you never ace those fancy recipes, they’ll cherish the memories of the meals you did prepare—made with love, no matter how imperfect.
