I really love to cook. It is a great fun doing the cooking. I think that cooking is really something that you need to learn or at least try/consider doing. I've known a filipina here in the uk and she just kept on craving for the fil. foods cos she knows nothing at all when it comes to cooking, and funny cos when her husband is out and nobodys' going to cook for her, she'll end up with oil and soy sauce with the rice.
Wherever you are if you know how to cook then you'll always feel at home. You can always make yourself proud and happy.
