Learning to eat with my hands

So I guess that they title and pictures basically explain it all. I am learning to eat rice and curry with my hands. It is much harder than it looks. I shot a piece of meat across the room during lunch that day!

My hands are soooo much bigger than I ever thought that they were! Eating with your left hand is considered rude so I am careful not to. I don't want to offend anyone. I'm very messy when I eat. I get it all over my hand. Blossom who is sitting beside me says that it takes practise. She is a teacher at BHA.
