What do you like about this subject?

I started cooking when I was very young and have developed an interest in ethnic dishes. Now my children have begun to take an interest in cooking as well. Because of the variety of things I prepare, they have quite a range of favorite foods.

What do you still hope to achieve/learn in this field?

I am always expanding the integration of all the different types of food I have learned to prepare. I hope to write a book someday.

Something interesting about this subject that others may not know:

When I was married, I did all of the cooking. Now that I am single, my children cook with me frequently. The eldest,(17) has become quite good.

Something controversial or provocative about this subject
