In the spirit of summer fun, we decided to republish one of our short videos about a soccer team whose young members celebrated their end of season party with a backyard cook-out. The essential ingredient: s’mores

Though this was filmed over 7 years ago, it’s still a nice summer time video. Many parents have experienced something similar with their own kids.

This video came about because of a story we were doing at the time. It was kind of a day in the life of a 10 year-old boy (Type 1 Diabetes —Calvin’s War), a member of this soccer team — who (along with his family), had to live with type-1 diabetes.

Most of the videos featured on Cooking Up a Story were produced, filmed, and edited by Rebecca Gerendasy. Fred Gerendasy contributed as a writer to many of the posts and occasionally as the interviewer. Visit Rebecca Gerendasy Clay – Art and Fred Gerendasy Photography to see their current work.
