Full time employed as a Quality/Welding Specialist in the Offshore Fabrication Group. I sometimes work overseas but I am luckier than most, I am a woman and I can cook for myself because eating in other countries can some times be a big challenge. I can even cook in small plug in pans in a small Asian Hotels and be Happy. I have never been able to develope a taste for Asian Foods. Cakes, Cookies, Pies, Main Course dishes and side dishes. I also love to cook a big breakfast. Large Holiday Dinners for Thanksgiving and Christmas. American Style Turkey dinners with all of the trimmings. Great Fruit Pies, desserts in general. I taugh myself to cook because my Mom cannot cook. Also, learning how to find substitutes cooking items in foreign countries where I sometimes work. I planned and cooked a Thanksgiving Dinner for about 100 co-workers while in Korea. Six Turkeys! First Lemon Meringue pie I used a can of pie filling, a grahamn cracker crust and Cool Whip for the topping. Well Cool Whip does not brown well in the Oven. I had a big mess.I was 14 years old. When I was about 6 years old I made a mud pie with sugar, dirt and water and it was pretty nasty too.
