[quote=Anonymous]My mom was a good cook and I spent a decent amount of time helping her in the kitchen. She gave me confidence in the kitchen and encouraged experimentation, so that by middle and high school I didn't think twice about trying to make some elaborate dish for international day or a fancy cake for someone's birthday - though I didn't think of cooking as a particular skill or hobby of mine by that point. In college and grad school I got a reputation for being a good cook (probably undeserved) and started cooking more because I felt I had to uphold it. For me, it's mostly a confidence and experience thing. I try making lots of different kinds of things, pay attention to what works well, and enjoy experimenting with what I have on hand as well as trying new recipes. [/quote]
