Passage Three
When I told my family that I was thinking of taking a cooking job, the roars of laughter were rather dis-couraging. No one believed that I could cook at all as I had never had a chance to practice at home. Our cook had ruled in the kitchen for thirty years and had an annoying tendency to regard the saucepans, stove and all the kitchen fittings as her own property.
I once crept down there when I thought she was asleep in her room to try out an omelette. Noiselessly I removed a frying pan from its hook and the eggs from their cupboard. It was the pop of the gas that woke her,I think, for I was just breaking the first egg when a pair of slippered feet moved round the door and a shriek of
horror caused me to break the egg on the floor. This disaster, together with the fact that ! was using her very special beloved and cared-for frying pan, upset her so much that she locked herself in the storeroom with all the food and we had to make our Sunday dinner of bananas.
If the family weren't going to be helpful, I would look for a job all by myself and not tell them about it till I'd got one. I had seen an agency in a local paper, so as soon as there was no one about to say”where are you going?”I rushed out of the house in search of it.
I sat on the edge of a chair and could see my nose shining out of the corner of my eye. ! thought perhaps it was a good thing;it might look more earnest. The woman at the desk examined me through her glasses.Having asked me a few questions, she told me that it would be difficult to get a job without experience.”But,”
she said, ”I've got someone who needs a cook badly.”She wrote down a number, and my spirits went up as I took the slip of paper she held out to me,saying”Ring up this lady. She wants a cook. You would have to start tomorrow by cooking dinner for ten people. Could you manage that?”“Oh, yes, ”said I never having cooked
for more than four in my life.
