Crucial Life skill- cooking food 🍔🥬 One of the important life skills is - able to cook food. It is highly prioritized in school and even in senior rover camps and activities. Scouts learn to cook under different circumstances in rain, in a damp place, without utensils, in fire, on stove and others besides normal facilities for cooking like at our home. Also, scouts learn to cook different types of food differently, using very local materials, especially bamboos, cotton rope, and woods, sometimes additional materials. During the school year in 2016, I participated in a cooking competition, where the 10+ (as much as I remember) schools scouts troop contested. There was different boys and girls section. 👨🏽‍🍳 We, the team of 6 boys, made a typical Nepali food set with dessert and salad. We were very happy and satisfied because at the end of the day we got to eat the food made in the 3 hours time frame in the mid-day sunlight. The hard work paid off. The jury was happy and we too achieved the fourth rank. However, we did very well but others did even better. The next day, we were honoured in the assembly of school, with everyone cheering up.
