I have a grandmother on my mother’s side who is very skilled at cooking. She always cooks for us when we visit her home in Jujjakarta Central Java in Indonesia. Her house is quite large with two floors and four bedrooms. My grandmother’s house is also located near a mountain which makes the mornings there very cold. I visited my grandmother because my family missed her and wanted to return to our hometown. When we arrived, she would come as a whole her to me, not forgetting her delicious cookie. At that time, she cooked good, a special food of Chokjukarta, Indonesia. And when we stayed at her house, I always helped her cook meals for the whole family, such as fried chicken or other dish we could enjoy together. Those moments were very warm and pleasant. I hope I can visit her again sometime.
