Rough Draft

 "Thai food is very hard to cook!" Many people and even Thais say this to me.  You might expect that Thais should know how to cook Thai food, though many Thais do not know or are even scared to cook Thai food.  In Thailand, it is not expensive to eat out - especially street food.  Many Thais prefer to buy street food rather than cooking food for themselves.  As the youngest daughter, I had my mother and many siblings to cook for me.  Homesick and suffering from culture shock after moving to the USA forced me to learn how to cook Thai food.  After I explored and cooked for a while, I started to get numerous compliments.  I would like to say to everyone that if I can cook Thai food, you can too!
