Samantha – cookery book writer!

Samantha is like many other teenage girls. She likes going clothes shopping in town on Saturdays, although
it’s usually just window shopping because she doesn’t have much money! And she loves doing volleyball
after school, too. But there’s one thing she’s done that her friends haven’t – she’s written a cookbook – and
now you can buy it in the shops!

Samantha didn’t really enjoy cooking when her mum asked her to help in the kitchen at an early age. But her
mum showed her how to cook pasta and make sauces, and slowly she learnt the basic skills. And since then,
she’s created lots of dishes of her own by experimenting – and when they’ve worked, she’s added them to her
collection!

Says Samantha, ‘I’ve made lots of mistakes along the way – and used every plate and bowl in the kitchen
sometimes! But I always tidy up, and anyway that’s the best way to learn. And my mum’s always here if I
need advice – like why something has gone wrong!

Samantha still finds time to do her schoolwork, and in fact thinks her cooking has made it easier for her to
understand some of her science subjects, like Chemistry. But she hasn’t decided on a career path yet.
‘Although I love cooking, I don’t think it’s so much fun if you have to do it every day. I’d quite like to use my
skills to become a school science teacher – and just cook at the weekends!’
