Tyranogre Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 Never got into cooking. Just felt pointless to me put so much effort into making something that will be gone in about half an hour. Link to comment

ace Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 I can believe y’all are dissing cooking like this. There’s nothing better than making something delicious, especially when you’re serving it to someone else. I even work as a cook and still like cooking at home. Link to comment

Tyranogre Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 Like, if you enjoy cooking, then that’s great! But some of us are perfectly happy living off of cereal and frozen microwaveable dinners. Link to comment
Youngster Joey Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 Cooking is pretty rad. My problem is that I didn't really have to cook until I started living on my own, and by then I was trying to figure out how to cook for one person. Which is a lot more challenging than you may think. My university years primarily consisted of rice and eggs. My girlfriend and I are moving into an apartment later this month, and I'm excited for life to be a little more engaging. I'll be doing cooking more often, and I really want to start working out on a regular basis. Next year I also plan on taking up reading (I have a list of books I want to read), and I'm looking forward to having always sharing something with someone. It's a big lifestyle change for me, but, like, living with my parents sucks. I just need to pass my CCNA certification exam and remember to buy Christmas gifts, and everything will be great. fuzz and Spring 2 Link to comment
April Posted December 3, 2019 Author Share Posted December 3, 2019 I personally need to cook more just because you can only get so much variety when you're broke without cooking. I can't be eatin out or buying some frozen dinner shit often. I never enjoyed it either, which I imagine is mostly because I'm not terribly food-motivated like most people are. So even though I haven't lived with family since I was 19 (minus a couple between-places periods before they moved), I've only really learned to cook a few specific things. Anything with the slow-cooker is beyond low-effort, barely any more involved than microwaving something, so I was planning on using that more. 8 hours ago, winterberry said: we made bacon! we'd made bacon yesterday and it stuck to the pan n pulled the strips all apart lmfao so today's pre-lunch bacon was truly a treat i cooked bacon in a pan one time and it made such a mess and took so long to cook the amount i wanted that i'm never going back to it again in the oven with a parchment sheet or w/e so you can just instantly get rid of most of the grease and cook way more at once is soooooo much easier Spring 1 Link to comment
ace Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 Baking bacon is the way to go. Hit a cooling rack with some non stick spray and bake it on that. It’ll get nice and crisp and it won’t be swimming in the grease either. in other news we lost power last night and have no idea when it’ll be back on. If my fish isn’t dead by the time I get home tonight I’ll float some of those hand warmers in the tank to keep him from freezing to death. Link to comment
