I need some help naming my cookbook.

I need some help naming the cookbook that my wife and I are putting together to help defray the costs of adopting our second son.

The book consists of recipes contributed from family and friends, and will be a small vanity-press run, probably sold mostly to other friends and family.

There is no real unifying theme to the recipes, but several are from Guatemala, since that's where our sons were born. Categories of recipes include Appetizers, Breads, Entrees, Desserts, Cookies, and Snacks.

The cover art isn't finalized, but will probably feature an illustration of a chef standing with an ethnically-diverse group of children.

Thanks for your help!

Be sure to put the books on projects. I love Guatemalan food and would be interested in buying your cookbook.

Maybe you could call it "Share the kitchen with [Insert names of your two children]" Then, put a picture of them in chef's hats on the cover.

To Serve Kids!

...Seriously, I think parmanparman's idea is nice.
