Bake a dozen cookies

Sit down and eat a couple by myself alone in my home

Hell yea these cookies are delicious

Happy for the rest of the day

That's assuming they're delicious, if I'd baked then I'd also be crying.

Baking is a lot more straightforward then cooking in my experience. Follow the recipe exactly and you're good. Its when folks are like, "Oh I'm out of butter I'll just use margarine it'll be fine" that shit gets fucky. Cooking though? You can do a lot on vibes there and be fine.

What gets me in the kitchen is ingredients having different prep times, preparation steps, and containers. I have a small kitchen... It becomes pure chaos and not worth the effort very quickly.

All hail dump recipes, for that exact reason.

There are plenty of slow cooker recipes that are more or less "dump entire container into warming vat, 3x times with different dumpables" that are not soups. The it's just 'scoop onto bread/pasta/wrap/carb of choice' and serve.

Thanks! I'll look into it then. Seems perfect.

Like a recipe that's just one pot, that you keep dumping ingredients into. Like a cake that's "add flour, butter, milk, whatever, mix until smooth, pour and bake", or stir fry that's "fry onion in pan, add veggies, keep frying, add meat, keep frying, serve".

Baking is a science. Cooking is art.

You wanna double the bacon in a BLT? Go for it.

You wanna double the flour in your muffins? Hope you like rocks.

It's true. I haven't used recipes for cooking since a long time; I basically improvize every time.

Or decide that these cookies will now suffice for today's caloric intake

I've just had a brilliant idea for a recipe site.

ASMR (or even alternative reality?) active participation cooking instructions. You could be cooking with Julia Chiles or Emrila in your kitchen... Or your grandma

I missed the word "pretend" and got really confused at first.

I need the herb you are smoking.

It's called overwhelming depression. You don't want it.
