My mother and grandmother are wonderful cooks! When I was young, I wanted to learn, but my mother wouldn't let me help. She would make me sit and watch her...I'm a tactile/visual learner, so I'd get bored and leave the kitchen...
Since then, if you give me a recipe with explicit instructions I can figure it out and make a good meal...but I cannot just "come up with something" on my own. I make chicken dinners (chicken parmesean is a specialty!) and breakfasts I'm great at (french toast, pancakes, eggs, etc.)...
The question is more do I like to cook? NOPE!
