If they’re like me, I’m embarrassed to admit I can’t cook. Oatmeal and sandwiches, and maybe a crock pot for rationing, but beyond that I’m no good.
When I was a kid my dad thought we should learn to cook before we left home. But he had this person boarding a room who thought she was being very witty when she was heckling this kid trying to grow himself. It was a horrible, terrible experience and I never picked up the spatula again.
I’ve worked 2 jobs for 24 years, so I have a handy excuse, but the reality is I was bullied into avoiding the task.
Oh I can’t cook for shit either, but I never asked an SO to replicate what I had growing up. It i really wanted it, I’d learn. Watched too many lazy men complain and make selfish demands about their wives/mothers cooking and decided I want no part of that tradition.
Fuck the bullies, learn to cook the few basic foods you love, and see if the love of cooking grabs you.
Or don’t, I am certainly not trying to bully you into doing something you dread. I just get a ton of satisfaction from trying new things now that I am older and give less fucks.
I wish I snapped pics of the calzones I made yesterday. They weren’t perfect but tasty and my wife loved em.
