Hi - I just joined this group as I have a Tween daughter heading into her Teen years and it's scaring the hell out of me. I just wrote an awesome blog post about talking with our kids... thought it might help out some parents who are having trouble talking to their kids.

One of the greatest mistakes in history is also one of the most delicious. The chocolate chip cookie was first made in the kitchen of the Toll House Inn.
The original Toll House Inn built in 1709 was a place where travelers paid a toll, changed horses, and ate home-cooked meals. In 1930 Kenneth and Ruth Graves Wakefield continued the tradition. Ruth did all the cooking and her desserts attracted people from all over New England.
Ruth Wakefield is credited for inventing chocolate chip cookies at her Toll House Inn near Whitman, Massachusetts in the early 1930s. One evening she got the idea to make a chocolate butter cookie for her guests. She broke up one of the bars of semi-sweet chocolate that Andrew Nestle gave her. She thought that it would mix together with the dough & make all chocolate cookies. Needless to say, the semi-sweet chocolate stayed in chip form.
She served them and they were so good they were served to her guests on a daily basis. She published the recipes in several newspapers and her Chocolate Crunch Cookie became very popular.
Ruth made a deal with Nestle that they could put the recipe on their chocolate bar if they supplied her with free chocolate for her cookies at the Inn. Nestle included a small chopper in the package to make it easy for people to make these cookies. Finally, in 1939, the Chocolate Morsels that we know today were introduced.
Nestle began marketing Ruth's chocolate chip cookies to the general public in 1940.
Ruth and her husband Kenneth sold the Toll House Inn in 1966. It was bought by a family that tried to turn it into a nightclub. In 1970 it was bought by the Saccone family who turned it back into its original form. They continued to make the original recipe at a bakery down the road.
The Toll House burned New Years Eve in 1984.
The Chocolate chip cookie is the most popular kind of cookie in America. 7 billion chocolate chips are consumed annually in the United States. That equals over 19.2 million cookies a day. Today might be a wonderful day to introduce your children to the original Toll House Cookie.

Hi! I just started a blog with my tween daughter and my sister. It's been fun, but getting a tween to commit to a deadline can be challenging. There is always an invite, school project, or just "I want to chill" excuse. Come by and visit our site 3girlsblogging.com and share your tween/teen tales from the trenches. Enter our May Mother's Day Sweeps, which includes a Pandora bracelet. Hurry, contest ends tomorrow!
