I'll never starve...cooked for my family when I was a kid because both parents worked different shifts...had a summer job at a camp in the kitchen...did most of the cooking when I was married...now that my kids are older and doing their own thing, they often complain I don't cook as much (must have edible)...my daughter often calls me to ask how to prepare certain things...I sent her and her boyfriend to a cooking class as a gift...I still enjoy it and can work a mean grill too...
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.
