Fun New Way to Cook Together
Without a doubt, food is one of the central experiences of a vacation. As such, it also represents some of the biggest opportunities to spend time together. Extending this time beyond eating the food to preparing it provides a shared goal the group can work toward accomplishing together. This naturally builds relationships.

Alexa is quite helpful in the kitchen. For example, you can set multiple kitchen timers hands-free with your voice. Quickly find recipes that match your desired dish type, available cooking time, and preferred cooking method. If you need to make a quick trip to the store for ingredients, you can just ask Alexa to send the recipe to a phone.

A lot of questions come up in the kitchen, for both experienced cooks and young aspiring chefs. With many cooks in the kitchen, there will be many questions that come along! This is especially true in an unfamiliar kitchen. Alexa can be a great help here. You will appreciate the ability to ask for the location of a common utensil or small appliance. You can ask for any measurement conversion you can think of. For example, “Alexa, how many pints are in a liter?”.
