Moving out of your parents' house ultimately means learning how to provide and fend for yourself. One of the biggest things you have to learn is how to cook for yourself. Most people just assume that you’ve watched your parents cook and have picked up on some basic kitchen things. For some of us, even growing up helping your parents make food, we still just can’t get the hang of it. If you’re one of the unfortunate ones who doesn’t have the knack for cooking, there’s a few things you know to be true.
1. Something ends up burnt. Whether it’s the food or your skin usually depends on how adventurous you are trying to be.
2. Something almost always over boil. Even when you keep a watchful eye on them, something bubbles over and creates a huge mess.
3. Even when you follow a recipe, you miss something that changes the entire outcome of the meal.
4. You become accustomed to eating either overcooked or under cooked pasta because you can’t tell when it’s done.
5. No matter how hard you try, there is always a huge mess to clean up afterwards.
6. You like all of those cooking videos on Facebook, but you never try to make them because it's all too difficult.
7. When you try to help someone else cook, you usually end up standing in the corner not doing anything because you don’t want to mess anything up.
8. Even when you use the microwave, you burn your food.
9. You have to ask for help every time.
