I'm Off My Game

This frustrates me. 2x in the last 2 weeks, I've muffed up what I was trying to cook.

I've never made something that legitimately tasted bad before. -Never-.

I tried making this Texas Chili recipe that I found online and it was so bitter it wasn't consumable.

And then I tried making Coq Au Vin Blanc (I've made regular Coq Au Vin, before), but the pot was really bad. And it burned the chicken through and through.

I know everyone goes through "cooking fails" in their lifetime, but I never have until now and I'm legit like not wanting to cook anymore. It's been pretty traumatizing. I've been cooking since I was like 16 yrs old and have never had a cooking fail before. And what really angers me is that I wound up wasting a lot of food in these endeavors.

I know how you feel. I tried to buy an American hotdog, but I got a French one instead. I feel like such a failure.

lmao.. . Oh shush.

On a side note... That -was- a joke right? and if not.. What does a French hotdog entail?

The french hotdog just looks like a corndog???

Or a pig in a blanket!

A French Hotdog is basically a sausage in a hollow baguette.

I made terrible inedible chili once, in college. The beans didn't get soft enough and the bay leaves were too overpowering. It was horrid. BJ ate half a bowl anyway because he's my darling.
