 Do you cook for yourself?
Dear friends here, I am trying to write something in English in the hope of starting a discussion as well as improving my writing. As an English teacher whose first language is not English, I doubt whether I can get my ideas across without sounding too foreign to native speakers of English. If you happen to come across my writing and you happen to be a native speaker of English, would you please let me know how you feel about my writing. If there's anything that is not properly expressed in my writing, please tell me. Many thanks to those who are kind enough to help me.
Do you cook for yourself?
With a full time job at a middle school, I always try to find time in my tight schedule every day to cook for myself and my family.
There are several reasons for it. First, I am concerned about the bad sanitation in most of the local restaurants in my area. Some colleagues of mine have running stomachs after they eat in those restaurants. Secondly, I think it is worth the effort to prepare food for my family and myself as far as a healthy diet is concerned. If we eat out, we tend to take in more fatty food than vegetables and fruits, which will eventually contributes to a lot of health problems. Thirdly, I enjoy wondering through the stands of pork , fish and vegetables in a market. The abundance of the various food materials stimulates my creativity in cooking. Lastly, I really enjoy being praised by my family about the delicious dishes I make for them.
None of my family members complains about a bad appetite. They simply can't wait to eat at dinner time.  |
