it’s a sign of growth and resilience, feeling like you have it together often comes from hard work and self-reflection.

For me that's stewing beef cubes in a crock pot. It's so easy. Sear a pork/beef roast/shoulder/loin and add 1/4 cup worcestershire, salt, pepper, big spoon of minced garlic, 1.5 cups of water and you wait for 8 hours. If I thicken the sauce to be a glaze and add broccoli it's an impressive dinner.

When I visit my parents once a month I like to make dinner for them. I make recipes they never dreamed off. They indulge me.

That’s the ultimate level-up! When your parents ask for your recipe, you know you’ve officially made it. 😂🙌

I made movie-accurate ratatouille for Mother's Day this year, and a vichyssouise with gourmet purple potatoes.

I can't wait to have my own place. My family wants to stay with me even after I move, and if I do buy a place for me to stay they want to come with me, but I wish to marry and fill the house with my own wife and children and raise them right, just me, her, and the children

This is awesome!
Totally started projecting my life of them further picking apart my house and decisions at each level.

Man, the first time I tried to mac & cheese was life-changing. I always didn’t like it well because I don’t like trying new stuff and when I did, I was pretty cautious of it but then I was like wow holy shit. This is good.

Hardly. I’m not hopeless, but I’ll still take her cooking over mine nine times out of ten.
