I really hate....

When a recipe can't give you semi-accurate cooking times.

Cook at 400 for 20 minutes, then broil for 2-3.
Yeah. Not quite. An extra 15 minutes gave me cooked pork but raw beans and potatoes. And I cut the veggies up smaller than suggested. Grrrr.

What do you hate right now??

I also hate that if my kid doesn't finish every drop of her milk, the cat will get on the table and knock it over before I can get it cleaned up. EVERY. TIME.

And...she won't even drink the spilled milk

Yes!!!! I've had that happen before a few times and I get pretty hangry.

I was thinking I cook stuff wrong. Mostly stove top stuff. Like they say dice chicken and cook on med for about 5 minutes until done. Well it takes at least 10 minutes on high for my chicken to be done!

Ahh! So I bought a frozen lasagna today because I wanted to be lazy. I cooked it the full time and let it cool down 5 mins. Cut a piece and it was still cold. Blahhhh

A poorly written recipe is the shittiest thing of all. Someone's carelessness can ruin a dinnet!

It was even a damndelicious recipe. So I expected a bit more. Plus, I used tenderloin cut in pieces. If I used bone in chops like it called for, it would have been a million times worse.

Lasagna is notorious for this. It's so hard to really know if it's hot inside, even if the top is all bubbly.

Yes so irritating. I'm so sorry.

Plus this is what I get for buying a frozen one. I had to put it in another 20 mins and it was pretty good!
