Cook the Book: Win a Copy of 'Cook with Jamie'

I learned through the power of observation, plus a LOT of trial and error. First, I watched my mom cook. She's a great cook but didn't let us kids help her that much. Then I watched my dad try his darndest to be a gourmet, with many failed attempts. Then I lived on my own and HAD to cook. And then my brother went to culinary school, sparking lots of tip trading and cooking together.

My parents both hand a hand in teaching me to cook. Even if my dad's biggest contribution was chili-from-a-can on spaghetti.
