>surprised they have, or surprised they haven't?
I'd be surprised they haven't slain and dressed game, and I'd be surprised if they find my lack of experience in that kind of thing to be normal.(in that my not having done it is normal.)

Everyone else is so experienced, they're all experts, everyone is off hunting and field butchering game and cooking it better than rosette bearing kitchens despite having nothing but a knife, a fire, some branches, and a dead bear.

And that's before any other culinary transgressions of my own;

I also don't know how to temper chocolate properly.

I can't bake for shit.

I don't use egg washes.

I prove my yeast with flour instead of sugar.

I make my rice in a pot instead of a rice cooker (machine)

I only own two pots.

I only own one baking sheet and one oven pot.

I don't even know the name for a pot you put in the oven.

I don't even like fowl.

When I brewed booze, I just decanted, I didn't filter beyond straining.

I have not cooked for myself properly in months; the shame and having roommates precludes much more than boiling or baking vegetables.

I'm sure there's other stuff I could think of, but not cooking often if at all is the real big sin. There before Dionysus, he'd call me a fucking fraud for thinking he'd weigh my heart against a feather and know mine will break His scale anyway. Anubis will obliterate me with a Vector Cannon and before I fade away to the abyss, my only hope is my ashes could maybe season something. Lords of lords know I not only can't cook for shit, but that I won't either.
