To Cook More

(Picture from http://4hisglory.wordpress.com/2007/01/)

I am blessed with a mother, holding the turner like a magic stick, who can fill the table with gourmet foods in an amazingly short time. There is little chance to visit Mom without smelling a mouth-watering aroma from the kitchen. However, cooking is not in my blood. Even though I used the same ingredients as my mom did, her dishes were gourmet foods while mine tasted like leftovers. While in the States, I used to cook almost every day since dining out cost much more. Practice did make perfect; at least, cooking was not that annoying. Now, back to Taiwan, the fast pace of life and easy access to food makes a good excuse for my laziness-I hardly cook. With a three-month summer vacation this year, I have made a resolution to cook more. As my mom says, the delicious smell from the kitchen characterizes a sweet home.
