I love cooking, but because my mom is too much of a bimbo and my dad too much of a “manly man” to ever step into the kitchen, I never had the chance to learn from them. I grew up on delivery, takeout, eating out, and the incredible food made by the amazing woman who cooks for our family. I became deeply interested in cooking at the start of my teenage years and taught myself through the internet, books, that same woman, and other relatives.

    I watched a lot of cooking shows on TV as a kid, just because I liked them. (DIY shows too, BTW, which is why I’m also comfortable doing my own home maintenance.)
