I love cooking and I think always have loved cooking since I first started when I was 8 years old. I experiment a lot in the kitchen with different spices and cuisines and I almost never follow recipes or measure amounts making most of my cooking my own original recipes. I don't really have a favorite although I am really good at cooking chinese food. Most of the traditional foods was passed on by my grandmother and I learnt by watching her and later my mom. The best traditional cooking would have to be at Christmas time when the whole family would get together to make Christmas sweets. Since I started cooking from such an early age, I've had a few triumphs over the years which would include cooking for parties and family get togethers. Oh so many when I first started like over cooking and under cooking rice, adding too much of one spice and less of another, too much salt, too little salt.....there was always something every single day for the first year I started cooking.
