to describe about my experience and grew up in my story.In the first time, when I was a young kid (5 year old), and my
stepfather taught me how to cutting any vegetables and fruits at the
kitchen in our house.

He was behind of me and his hands held on my arms to
cutting those. So, that helped me to learning how to carefully with the
knife and making shape of the foods look like nice. Well, he not gave me
ready to learn how to cooking because I was very young right now. I was so
patient and desired to do cooking, but I wanted to have hurried that I will
have been becoming older.In many years later, my heart was started bright, that my mother gave
me readied to cooking at the kitchen in our house.

In the result, she
taught me how to making foods and cooking; including, mac cheese, Asian
food, sausage, pizza, spaghetti, and another. However, we were shared with
our recipes and making something. Later I can had been to cooking all by
myself, and I always had been easy to making the mac cheese, sausages,
green bean, and chicken with rice. That had been to improving to learning
little more time and fun.When I was 14 or 15 years old, my grandma showed me known how to
following the direct on the recipes, and I had been learning about units of
the measurement included with teaspoons, tablespoons, and cups at the
kitchen in her house.

Although my grandma and I were together too shared
different of the recipes, most of us that we had been making varieties of
the dessert in many time. In someday, I had been making the chocolate chip
cookies, brownie, chocolate cake, and peanut cookies.On Thanksgiving Day, both of my grandma and grandpa gave me the
special foods that I can had been making a pecan pie, a pumpkin pie, and a
jelled cranberry with pecan. In addition, my grandpa did cutting a turkey
with his special knife, so that he showed me how to cutting it for later
time. But I must have to known that a knife was warning, when he told me
that.

I remembered that my grandma gave me learned how to making a pecan

sounded smelling maple and tasted so delicious. Furthermore, made of the
