I sure can 👍🙂. Matter of fact I blew my girlfriend - now my wife’s mind when she made a Chinese food supper and she brought out a fork and I asked her for a pair of chopsticks. Her little squint eyes popped as big as she could get and she said you can eat with chopsticks? I said yes. She got me a pair and she said all right let’s see you then. And had her hands clasped together watching me and I figured she was waiting for me to be unable to hold the chopsticks correctly but the joke was on her as she saw me hold them the right way and started eating. She was in shock and I said better eat or it’s going to get cold 😛. She asked how I knew how to do it. I said just over time and eating lots of Chinese food. She was very impressed and pleased try hat I could do that. Later on when I met her mom who can’t speak a word of English, saw me eating with chopsticks, she gasped, clapped and gave me two thumbs up. I asked my wife does that mean good in Chinese like it does for here in the US? She said yes ma ma is very surprised and pleased that you can do that like us. I said thank you in Chinese to her and it’s been great so far. Amazingly my mother in law and I get along great when she stays over here for a few months when she visits from China. 👍🙂

  @rosemilk - Yes she’s 100% traditional Chinese. And she’s ok with me calling her eyes that because that’s the widest they can open. She has told me many times she wishes her eyes could get as big as mine.
  
  by the way I see you are Korean and you have bigger eyes but if what i said offends you, I apologize.

Yes but I only order bite size food. The thought of eating noodles horrifies my sense of western table manners.

  Top tip, carry a pencil sharpener in your purse to turn your chopsticks into useful skewers.
