I can screw up a bowl of cereal. Well, ok, maybe not. But then again .... I don't like to experiment, because after 25+ years of cooking and screwing up what should have been a perfectly good meal, I figure I may as well leave it to someone who is obviously capable of learning how to cook. Something I'm obviously not capable of. I wish you better luck than I've had! :-) I’m not a kitchen person. I can screw up a bowl of cereal. Well, ok, maybe not. But then again ….

I would have had to hear about how I messed it up and how I need to go ahead and dig a grave in the backyard for you because I was trying to kill you blah blah blah. Bro, on the other hand, would have liked it. Pop – your palette would not have been able to handle what I cooked last night because of the cayenne pepper.

Your slicing and dicing will get quicker with practice. Trying more recipes will give you practice on different techniques, so you'll get better. And eating more new things will help you develop more of a sense for flavors and textures, so you'll get a better idea of what it is you want to cook. I have faith that you can lick this one.

If I stop talking about it, I probably gave up and put a frozen pizza in the oven. I'm just being honest here. I don't share Abe's birthday for nothing.

And Mike is useless in the kitchen. If I asked him to fix it, he'd put ketchup on it. I don’t have a wife to fix things. And Mike is useless in the kitchen.
