How many AudiogoNers are amateur chefs?


I know this is WAY off topic, but I am curious as to how many of you folks fancy yourselves as amateur chefs. I ask this as I just completed my first day of culinary school. This is not a school for training pros (we meet on Fridays for the day), but for those folks who want to become better cooks, learning to prepare menus, pairing foods and wines, etc. I still have my full-time profession, so this is for home.

Hi Slipknot
I do!

So do several of my friends. We all enjoy cooking. I'm just tidying things up waiting for a few folks to show up. We all bring a dish/appetizer and wine or whatever. It's a meal and a friendly contest of sorts. I've gone to a couple of culinary week-end things but mostly learn by just banging aroung the kitchen and reading a little. If you're going to eat it might as well be good!

Cheers
I remain,
Tom, do you do all your cooking in one of those 23cm full-range pots?

Sincerely
I remain
