It was on the 28th of April. I was 7 years 4 months. My mum was at the hospital giving birth to my last baby. My dad was not around. My first meal was rice, then eba in the afternoon under the tutelage of our neighbor.

I was 6 years old when I made my first meal.
Mum was always busy, same with dad & at such, I had to learn very quick..

It was rice & beans, though we had stew in the fridge. I cooked the beans & rice together grin. The rice was already soft with the beans still hard. We had to eat it like that oo grin grin..

@ 8years, I made my first stew.. It was a disaster.. The puree tomato still had that soured taste, coupled with, it was an 'ocean of salt' grin..

While everyone was complaining, I kept on consoling myself, 'It's not bad.. I tried.. The salt isn't much.'..

#Good old days...

At 14, I cooked the worst meal ever.
Egusi soup with very expensive fresh fish. (Very tight packaging that I watched everyone spit out d food n running for water. I followed them when I tasted it). I pitied d fish.

At 21, I got back to the kitchen

I came home just now and my kid brothers were all smiles. The twins had this big grin grin on their faces. When I asked them why they were smiling, they told me they had both cooked our evening meal (Beans).

Ah! I thought they were joking but my doubts were cleared when they brought me a plate of the scentilating beans. Mehn! When I put one spoon inside my mouth, I momentarily forgot the pains of trekking around the city looking for one fairy-tale job.

This boys tried o. Its not easy to cook family food with such level of perfection. And they are just 11 years old! I know some girls at 21 years of age who would cook salt and add little beans and still be claiming best cook. INTROVERT I did not call your name o.

So at what age did you start cooking? Am not talking of boiling hot water and indomie o.
