آشپزي

At the age of 6, I was doing dishes and cooking meals on my own.  Yes, looking at my young nieces and nephews now, I agree that 6 years old is quite young to be doing such tasks, but I didn’t feel like a kid at that age. Mom was a single mother of three at that time and so we all had to pitch in and I can honestly say that today, I’m so grateful that she did.

I’ll never forget the first thing I ever cooked—Kraft Macaroni and Cheese.  I was looking forward to surprising Mom when she came downstairs.
