Little Sister the Chef

Being the little sister in a family with mostly boys Was very hard and difficult liking all their toys I loved to play in the dirt , could throw any ball Played "running bases", "tag", and loved "off the wall" My sister was way older and she was never home So I was forced to battle with my brothers on my own I fought my battles valiantly, but each time I would lose Being youngest in a family,I often became the muse I cried many tears those many years ago For competing with those boys,I had a lot to show I grew older,strong, and smarter and chose a tough career Cooking for a living in a man's world, I showed no fear Those brothers had taught me to always fight for what's right A women could cook as well as a man, and besides I had a knife!

You have a very viable career. There's a lot of demand for accomplished chefs; especially in an area with a lot of restaurants. Good write.
