DEAR CHEF:
Lory and Mazel are my dear mice who, have inspired me to write this cookbook for you. They will guide you step by step through every page so that you learn a love for food and the kitchen.
Do you want delicious and fun recipes to share with family and friends? This book has recipes for your birthday parties, special occasions, or just for having fun with Mom, Dad, siblings, or friends in your kitchen.
Lory and Mazel’s recipes will bring your food alive and will make it fun as well. Here you will find delicious worm-shaped pastries, pirate pasta ideas, salads, drinks, and much more with a very original touch.
Many times, we dislike the taste, smell, or look of some food, but I guarantee you, once you have learned how to cook it, your palate learns to eat and enjoy many flavors. Take your apron, and even though you are small, remember that Mom, Dad, or any adult can help you with any of the hard stuff, such as turning on the oven, heating chocolate on the stove, among others.
I hope you have fun and learn to love your kitchen and the things you can make in it!
Tatiana Vidal S.
P.S. A good cook always leaves the kitchen how she or he found it: VERY CLEAN!

Since fourteen, Tatiana has worked with children; fist as a counselor at “Camp Mishannock” in Boston, MA. , and later as an owner of “Summer Camp La Huella” in Sonora, Mexico. She also worked as a kindergarten teacher in Mexico, and as an assistant web designer for the Noggin Channel for kids, tweens, and teens at Viacom in New York. Having concern for the lack of young readers and the cultural movement in her own country, Tatiana decided to start her own company, thus becoming an entrepreneur early in her career. In August of 2004, as an owner and publisher in Sonora Mexico, she launched the publication “De-Kids”; a monthly magazine printed and based on the Internet for kids ages 6 to 12. In December of 2006, “De-Kids” expanded to other states of the country. After publishing twenty-eight editions of this magazine, currently printing has stopped. Today, “De-Kids” produces non-periodic magazines for specific clients in various areas and industries such as: school materials, government publications addressing children and family issues, and similar businesses. Her passion and love for developing the creative, intellectual, and social skills of children have driven her to create small characters that teach different aspects of everyday life. Throughout this book, Lory and Mazel show their love for the kitchen, creativity, and good eating habits.
