It’s fun to dabble in new hobbies. And if you fear failure, then you’ll never be able to master anything. It’s completely normal to be bad at something at first—that is why practice is so important! That being said, sometimes you have to stop while you’re ahead… For example, I have already had to go to the emergency room three different times for kitchen related incidents, so now my partner does most of the cooking in the relationship. But hey! At least I tried, and you know what, I made some pretty tasty things. Sure, some of those meals were occupied by a stressful evening filled with blood and a hefty medical bill. But were they worth it??? My partner says no… But I say yes! Because at least I tried. And you know what, those fried tacos I made last time where I ended up losing a bit of my finger were actually delicious so… Yeah, now that I’ve typed that I can kinda see why I’m not allowed to cook alone anymore. At least I’m not making any of these monstrosities below!
