I like cooking much more than washing dishes. I can always create several delicious food when not much ingredient and materials available without a recipe book. I am very proud of it because my peers and friends have to rely on their parents.

There is a reason for everything. First, my mom is a good cooker and when I was a kid, she showed me her passion on cooking and always gave us surprises. Good sense of taste and my mom’s love on cooking affect me in my life. It is an attitude to life.

When kids become grownups, they have to live on themselves and if kids have a good ability of cooking, life should be much more tasteful.
