Same here. Mom and Dad are both pretty good cooks, but I was never very
interested in learning when I lived at home... Then when I got married, I
had to learn fast - I swear I could burn water in those days. However,
although it didn't take me too long to be able to cook food that
was 'edible' in my early years of marriage, it was only much later in life
that I realized how much fun cooking can be - and that you *can* make great
meals at home; i.e. you don't have to go to a 'fancy' restaurant with a
professional chef to have good food. I really enjoy trying to
make 'copy-cat versions' of good meals that I've had in restaurants, or
meals I've seen on some of the cooking shows on TV. I still have the
odd 'flop', but I just laugh it off now - and try again. ;-)
