I didnt learn cooking the traditional way - my mom didnt teach me to cook. Not that she didnt want me to learn, I just refused to. I didnt go through the much needed learning to turn me into a good wife for my future husband. I was convinced I brought plenty else to the marraige table. Add to that the fact that I was a picky eater as a child, karela was never in my food repertoire as a child.
