Oh, don't worry about knowing how to cook, just have fun!
I think the best advice I got, young when I didn't really know how to cook myself (it came later) was what is your favourite meal? It doesn't always work because of the difficulty level but you should try making your favourite meal. yes yes, it'll suck the first few time but if you make it once a month, you will make it twelve times, this year alone. Write down the ingredients, weight everything, follow the recipe like a child. Eat and write down your thoughts. Too salty, bland, too much garlic, etc. And then next time, work on that. Before you know it, your favourite meal will be you specialty. Also, concerning sugar, you do realize that vegetables (and fruits) have naturally occurring sugar, in them, right? Like I know your body doesn't assimilate fructose the same as sugar but roughly, it's similar in terms of how your body reacts to it and this is why they note the (average) sugar content of the vegetables you have divided by the portions. I don't think they add sugar in there. But yeah, my little trick for veggies make them a bit sweeter, less bland and less watery. Think of raw fish that's been sitting in lemon. (you can also marinate your chicken in salt and brown sugar to turn it into amazing meats) Seriously, cooking may seem intimidating at first but it's actually pretty easy. I mean, like everything right, a bit of practice. It's not that you're bad at it, you just don't do it. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] I really like Epicurious, a youtube cooking channel affiliated with bon appetit (so sad they lost dessert person Claire Saffitz, the love of my life) It's split into four categories. from amateur to pro chef different version of same dish. Amateur and pro chef trade recipe for a dish. 40 amateurs attempting to do a basic cooking thing, 10 home cooks doing the same, slightly better and then 1 pro chef, explaining how to do it. pro chef teaches you how to save money and time cooking. Pro Chef Turns Frozen Food Into 4 Dishes Under $3 4 Levels of Chicken Sandwich: Amateur to Food Scientist $500 vs $16 Steak Dinner: Pro Chef & Home Cook Swap Ingredients And because you guys like steak and you might need some ideas, 4 Levels of Steak: Amateur to Food Scientist (if you like steaks, and meats in general but you're not a great cook, buy this sous vide cooker. You can just throw some butter in a bag, salt and pepper, throw your steak in there, shut the bag, toss in the water bath. 1 hour later, depending on size, take steak out of the bag, give it a nice crust (oil first, flip, add butter as butter doesn't make a nice crust like oil does) and it will be PERFECT every single time. Exactly how you like it. Because we know rare steaks is 120F, leave it in there however long, water is at 120F, it'll be rare. Seriously takes skills out of grilling meat and every single restaurant worth its weight does this now. in a bag that is actually sous vided, there is nowhere for the juices to escape but inside the meat. If it's just a ziploc bag, place it in the water, open. it'll shrivel up and all the air will naturally escape the warm bag. you can seal pretty good using this technique. All in all, I recommend you to not watch any of these videos by Claire Saffitz because trust me, she will make it look easy and you will want to bake and feel a tingly feeling in your tummy watching her. Claire Saffitz Teaches Amateur How To Make Croquembouche if she can make that guy make croquembouche, you can probably do anything. PLUS THAT INTRO! tuuuudududuuuu desssssssert peeeeerson.

lotta freakposting ITT by fats
in particular i call attention to Cecily "identifying" as left wing while ingratiating with cleetus by calling itself a slur. Not just completely self-respect-free but oblivious to consensus reality; one might come to the word "delusional" | ||

As a leftist transwoman, I don't find tranny particularly offensive. I know well intentioned transvestite allies* like yourself sometimes involve yourself in our affairs, but it's not necessary. Thanks though, hon.
*Please let me know if this incorrect. I don't know you well and I'm just going off of what you've shared here. | ||

I know you think your gangly body is the pinnacle of transition success, because it would break you to realize you're a painfully average 30-something LATE transitioner. I don't get this sense of competition you're pushing for all the time and it's 100% a carry over from MALE socialization. I don't envy you. I think you're a shitty person. I don't think you're pretty. I think you're a bitch. Please have health complications that prevent you from posting anymore.
