If you could be as talented as some friend of yours at any one thing what would you choose?  Why? (Use ability)

If I could be as talented as someone, I would choose my mom. My mom is still considered as a friend to me because she treats me like a sister. The talent I like most about my mom is her cooking. Her ability to not burn anything and knowing what to do to make food is incredible. My favorite part is eating her delicious dishes she makes for me everyday.

In my case I like to cook but I have bad timing in when to determine whether the food is ready. For example I was baking a cheesecake for my siblings and me and it was not quite ready. So I decided to leave it so it could turn golden brown. Yet, unfortunately the cheesecake got burned from a side. I was disappointed and had to eat the burned side.

On the other hand if I had my mom’s skills the cheesecake would have been delectable. The top would be golden brown and no side would be burned. There would not even be a single crack on it that is how good my mother bakes. I love it when she surprises us with cinnamon rolls in the morning with icing and milk. That is the best breakfast ever.
