I've mentioned cooking before (
here), albeit it briefly. I've now started to attempt cooking again, with some teaching and extra motivation. The problem area for me before was the 'Does it taste good' decision box. What I cooked was good usually, but 'Kinda'. I would always have the leftovers in the fridge for way too long, or eat the same thing for a week straight. This all led to me avoiding cooking.
Now, I'm starting to enjoy and appreciate cooking, just. I've been shown how to do some things, and that is much easier for me to follow than a recipe. I'm getting to the point where I understand a few basics, which helps me to experiment with new, but still similar things. I never thought I would say it, but it is actually fun. I'm not good at it, but I'm not discouraged either. Can only get better from here. Still a lot to learn, and I will try the okra again (it was from scratch!). Hooray learning!

Tasted better than it looks (well, except for the okra. It looks better than it tasted) |

Breakfast for dinner! French toast, eggs and bacon. All really good! |
