So I decided it was time to start learning to cook. I went to the market and bought a chicken breast, two potatoes, an onion, two cloves of garlic, and spices among other things.
That night I diced up my potatoes, halved the onion and some garlic, no problems despite using the big, scary knife. Next it was time to cut the chicken which was rather difficult as it was raw and slimy and it kind of smelled. I managed to get trough that right as everyone came up to the apartment for the second round going away party.
Having an audience wasn’t exactly what I wanted seeing as I had little idea what I was doing. Luckily everyone was rather supportive and the mostly hung out in the living room. Really, the only person who teased me at all was Vin, which was sort of okay as he also told me how to do stuff. For example, I couldn’t figure out how to turn on the stove because it’s gas, not electric. So I stood there like five minutes waiting and wondering why the burner wasn’t heating up when I turned the knob. That was sad.
Anyway, it took a while but my dinner ended up being quite excellent, especially for a first attempt!
