/ck/ - Food & Cooking

As a really young kid, I was a super picky eater. My parents got divorced when I was 8, and along with my tastebuds growing the fuck up, my mother stopped trying to cook for my dad. Immediately her cooking improved-- he was a fucking moron who liked babyfood vegetables and super-well-done meats.

Pretty much from then until adulthood she cooked every meal and they were all passable, if not delicious. She has some great original recipes that people beg her to show them, and she will invite them over for a casual cooking class of sorts.

She's crippled and can't walk or use a knife correctly anymore, but we still cook together sometimes. She's out of practice now, but her sense of flavoring/spices are spot on-- I have her taste test all my new recipes before I call it "finished".

She's always been a shitty "walk away, it'll be fine" cook though, and all of her bad dinners were due to this.

Besides the condensed milk salad, most of her recipes are fairly edible. Definitely a step ahead of the boxed food most people of her weight class consume.

She's adorable in a weird way, I can't quite place it.
