It seems as though I've been cooking all of my life. I began cooking as a child, preparing meals for my mother to have things well under way when she got home from work. Now that I've retired from full time Chef responsibilities, I work as a Private Chef for local professionals and their families. I have a very small staff to assist me, all of whom are indispensable. When I find good people I try to treat them well, pay them well and respect the value of their suggestions. They don't need to be professional chefs to have good ideas.

I too feel as though I have cooked forever. No one to learn from as a child, but read everything I could get my hands on. When I finally got to home ec classes it seemed a bit elementary.
A few years ago, I retired from one job and as I prepared resume, typed "30+" as years of experience and then realized??? Whoops,40+.
Been a great ride.
Look forward to your posts,
Nan
