impedition to cooking.

Cooking takes a really long time. Too long.

1) Walk in the Cold to Willy's, where everything is cheaper (see, mummy. I scrimp.) but it's fucking far. Like a 20min walk.

2) Search food for the cheapest per kg and then purchase it even though you think it'd suck.

3) Walk back in the Cold or wait 20 mins for the bus.

4) Get back and try to warm yourself under the covers. This takes about 10 minutes.

5) The Big Hoo-Ha begins. Boiling water, using the oven, oil, frying, everything. And all in the midst of different people telling you different instructions to not get the things burnt and to get the flavours but somehow everything still gets burnt and tastes notsopleasant.

6) Throw away burnt or gross food.

7) Start cooking something simpler.

8) By this time, you are already starvinggg. And anything horrible still tastes really good and I'm always thankful for the food.

9) Start eating. This takes like 1/20 of the time spent in the whole affair of cooking.

10) Eating always ends too early. Because you have to wash up.

11) Soap.

12) Rinse.

13) Dry.

Then, its over.

Busy yourself for about 3 hours and the whole affair starts again.


This is why I have no time to blog.


It is no surprise that I don't cook because it is such a hassle. And it doesn't help that everybody around me cooks so damn well. Syida, Dan, Jamie O'xavier.


Plus, my favourite Italian cooks for me all the time.
