I am hopeless as a cook. I am not sure whether my son is a good cook. But he definitely has more potential than me in this area.</p>
<p>Why do I say so? We just come back from a vacation that has lasted almost a week. In our family, it is usually my wife who packs and unpacks before/after a family trip. While she is unpacking, my son goes to the kitchen area and tries to find out what new ingredients and sauces my wife newly acquires and asks questions about these new stuff. He also said he is “envious” of her for having much more ingredients and sauces than he does at school. He even could remember what his mom had before and what his mom newly acquires, and he has not been home for a year! This is the reason why I think he has the potential to become a reasonably good cook.</p>
