I had a cousin (years ago) who was capable of making a tiered wedding cake that looked like a professional pastry chef produced it. She simply had a talent for it. But, those were the days when you weren't required to have a certificate to tell someone you were qualified to do something.
Sarah Sanders probably has a natural talent for baking. I do okay in cooking food; but, baking is not my strong suit.
It is amazing what some people can do with food, whether they are professional or amateur. Your cousin, my brother...it’s just something they have a natural interest in and aptitude for. My brother takes after our dad, which is lucky for my sister-in-law, who does not seem to like to cook. She is the one who decorates the table, and the rest of the house, nicely, though, so they are a good match.
I did not inherit anyone’s interest in cooking/baking! :)
