| How old were you when you first started learning the basics of how to cook?
I was 9 when I started making basic stuff like grilled cheese sandwiches and mashed potatoes and poached eggs. | |

| I don't get on TV shows you have like 10 year olds and 12 year olds and the parents telling them not to use the stove, why? I never got that, it's not like we ever almost burnt the house down because of a cooking mishap, we knew what we were doing. But it seems like in TV shows the parents just assume the kids cannot be responsible, (who remembers Darlene on Roseanne trying to cook Jiffypop popcorn on a heating pad?) and given I was younger when I first started cooking than all the kids used as these examples in sitcoms, I never got it. | |
