Fandom Snowflake Challenge - Day 8
Jan. 10th, 2012 01:39 amIn your own space, talk about a talent (or talents) you have. Everyone's got something they're good at.
It's odd but I have trouble figuring out what I'm good at, largely because I have so little chance to compare what I can do with others so I don't know if I'm good, okay, terrible (alright, that's usually self-evident!) But if I can do something, I generally assume that anyone can do it. Sometimes I find out that this not true.
I do know I'm a good cook. I know I've improved in confidence and skill since I first took over the household cooking about five years ago. I like being competent at cooking because there's so little that I can do, physically and mentally, but I can do this most of the time. Tonight, I made coriander chicken with walnuts and apple coleslaw. Very good for a warm evening.
Speaking of being competent at something, I was very pleased to learn last year and year before last, that I am capable of putting (mostly Ikea) furniture together. I can set up TVs, sound systems, etc. Some things though, I will gladly leave to professionals (but I wouldn't mind having a little more knowledge of how computers work.)
