What is one food you just can't cook?

50. I cannot fry an egg. . .

. . . Because my father, (Goddess bless him), was a terrible teacher who took over every time I made the attempt. That is also why I can't partner dance, though my memories of being pushed around on a dance floor at weddings have taken on a certain warmed glow since my dad's passing.

Once of the hardest parts about teaching-- and parenting, I guess-- is standing back and allowing imperfection. As for pancakes, I have heard it said that the first one is meant to be a throw away. Sometimes doing something wrong is the best way to learn how to do something right.
