I cook a greater variety of foods than my mom, but what she does best, she does better than me.

All in all I'd say I'm much better than my mother and grandmother. I have a larger repertoire and my best offerings are on par or better than theirs. The fact I had more cooking toys, better access to ingredients and a more adventurous palate helped. In my eyes the magic of my grandmother's cooking was that she did it with only the most utilitarian of cooking tools and locally grown ingredients.

There are a few things I dont match up on, but overall I'm the best I know.
