Gramma: It's time you learned how to cook, Holly. Holly: Why? Gramma: Why?! It's a basic life skill! Everyone needs to know how to cook! Holly: If you shop carefully, you don't need to cook. Gramma: Stocking up at the deli counter is not grocery shopping. Holly: Then why is it in the grocery store??
The simple things in cooking should be learned by anyone that uses a fridge. A simple rue, a red sauce, and a white sauce and you can master almost any basic dish in a cookbook.
