I have learned many skills in my childhood, and I would like to talk about a skill that is very useful in everyone's life, which is cooking. Cooking is a very useful skill that I learned from my grandmother. During the corona time, I was in 8th grade and had no work to do, so my grandmother taught me new recipes and new dishes. I am a hearty eater, and at that time, there were no restaurants available. My grandmother is 60 years old, and she is very tall and beautiful. She has a gift for cooking and always made delicious food. She made a beautiful and delicious cake. Moreover, this skill is very useful for me because I want to go abroad, and I hear that in other countries, there is a limited amount of vegetarian food. So, I learned this skill to cook food for myself. I think it is very important, and my grandmother motivated and inspired me to cook. She taught me how to make and cook food.
