Cooking?
>> Sunday, April 29, 2012
Let's talk about cooking, shall we?
I'm terrified of it. I'm not sure why, but I've never had the confidence to cook an amazing meal by myself. I can help in the kitchen (mostly by cleaning the dishes), but doing everything on my own? Oh Lord. I'm great at cooking breakfast foods, and I'm okay with baking.
For Christmas this past year, my future in-laws got me nothing BUT cooking stuff. A crock pot, cook book, a new set of pots and pans (which I have used), and even a cheese grater and meat thermometer! Have I used them? Not really. I've used to crock pot twice to make soup, but that's about it. I've looked through the cook book my future mother-in-law gave me and nothing jumps off the page! Everything in the book seems so intimidating. Do I have all the needed supplies and ingredients? I don't know!
I want to cook meals for Joe SO BADLY-especially dinners after work. My main issues with this are: my lack of confidence in my cooking skills, and I'm so tired and run down after work. When I've been away from home all day, the last thing I want to do is be in the kitchen.
I don't know what to do. I pin recipes on Pinterest CONSTANTLY, but have I done anything with them? Nope! I'm scared of them!
Any tips for overcoming my fear of cooking?
Later Days!
