Learn to cook

So this week I have managed to cook two different pasta dishes, neither of which have given me food poisoning. I won’t say they tasted that great but they were at least edible. Although I’m quite glad nobody saw me cooking because I was flinching away from the frying onions and cooking at arm’s length. I suppose like with anything it’s just about gaining the confidence to give it a go, and practice makes perfect.

Okay… this was a bit of a joint effort with a friend… and it did involve a cheat’s packet mix for Easy Lasagne. But it tasted good, wasn’t burnt and didn’t give us food poisoning. A good start I think!

For some reason my boss today was bemoaning the fact that people don’t cook proper meals anymore and unfortunately picked on me as the perfect example. The two guys I work with looked at me in utter dismay when I said I couldn’t even boil an egg. Must do better!
