"I wish I didn&amp;#039;t like to cook so much. I really do love it. And I&amp;#039;m actually quite a good cook. I don&amp;#039;t need recipes, and I&amp;#039;m comfortable moving around the kitchen. But you wouldn&amp;#039;t know that from my performance this morning. What a breakfast disaster I had. First, I tried to make some scrambled egg whites with cheese and turkey bacon, with the idea of making my own breakfast sandwich. But before I knew it, my plans crumbled because I promptly burnt the eggs and didn&amp;#039;t finish cooking the bacon. (Smelly eggs and trichinosis anyone? Yum!). So it all went in the garbage. So then I decided to do a simple grilled cheese since I still had the bread and the cheese left over. I threw the bread into the pan I had used for the eggs, added shredded lowfat cheese, and placed another slice of bread on top. But would you believe the darn thing started to burn, too??!! I couldn&amp;#039;t believe it. I had managed to burn two of the simplist dishes around. Way to go. Needless to say, after all that, I wasn&amp;#039;t even hungry anymore. Trying twice to make a meal and then having them both end up in flames was enough brutality for one day. I just couldn&amp;#039;t think of trying a third time. I had had enough. So I just didn&amp;#039;t eat. I skipped breakfast altogether. A few hours later it struck me that if I were always this bad of a cook, I&amp;#039;d probably skip more meals which, over time, could have led me to actually being skinnier. I wouldn&amp;#039;t have been capable of making anything I enjoyed to eat, and so I&amp;#039;d therefore just eat less overall! (Hmm. I wonder what percentage of thin people are also bad cooks? I bet it&amp;#039;s higher than you&amp;#039;d think.) So I might not try to perfect my risotto or try a new saut\u00E9ing technique. Because every new cooking skill probably means more calories for me! Becoming a bad cook doesn&amp;#039;t actually seem all that bad. ;) "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
