Babette's Corner: Seven-year-old cooks up a storm to raise money for cancer

I found this amazing story the other day on the Huffington Post and knew I needed to share it.  Eight-year-old Jack Witherspoon is not the average kid that I normally find when searching for kids doing good.  He himself is fighting a battle with leukemia, so I would expect a story about others helping him.  Not this young man.  What makes Jack so special is that he decided after his cancer was in remission that he was going to help raise money for children’s cancer research.  

In 2008, he raised $36,000 by doing what he loves to do best, cooking. He plans on working on a cookbook called “twist it up,” with the profits all going to leukemia research!

I can’t wait to get my hands on this young Top Chef's recipes.
