Cooking Style: Modern Grandma I believe cooking should be a basic human skill, like reading, writing, or driving a car. I don't have a way with words like I do with a camera, so let the late, great Anthony Bourdain explain my purpose. "“But I do think the idea that basic cooking skills are a virtue, that the ability to feed yourself and a few others with proficiency should be taught to every young man and woman as a fundamental skill, should become as vital to growing up as learning to wipe one’s own ass, cross the street by oneself, or be trusted with money.” I'm here to teach you how to make cooking as fun for you as it is for me. (Quote from Anthony Bourdain book “Medium Raw: A Bloody Valentine to the World of Food and the People Who Cook” )
