Now listen LA, in economic parlance, women hae a comparative advantage in cooking pasta and rice (no matter how easy it sems to all and sundry), just as men have the same comparative advantage in orienteering! ;)

but i cant understnad how people CANNOT cook, i have been cooking from a very young age, i watched both my grand perants, and its soooooooooo easy,

i like cooking BIG meals. i like cooking for the whole family at christmas, and i bake cakes almost every day. i just love it, i find it relaxing and theraputic
 
It's because you have that talent, LA. Sometimes it's hard for me to believe people can't work their computers...but there's a world of them.

Ok I'm convinced SFers, we're all going over to LA's for Christmas and forgetting aboutout idiosynchrasies and stuff , 'cause absolutely almost everyone in the Southen hemisphere does not like cooking at that time in 30 degrees celsius, and its gonna be pasta and rice, but BYO chicken and maybe Paul Newman sokaroonie pasta sauce ;)
 
Y'all southern hemispherians are welcome to have Christmas with me in Paris...Texas that is..

It's beautiful:

Bubble and squeak for boxing day?
 
But bubble and squeak is brilliant.
 
Worst cooking incident was when a pyrex dish containing a beef stew I'd anticipated for hours decided to shatter after I took it out of the oven. It went everywhere.

I'm a kitchen whizz though, and do all the cooking pretty much, and don't screw up much.
 
I cooked 25 lasagna's once which we had prepped the day before for a lunch buffet and didnt notice i had left the clingfilm on in fact no-one noticed till they tried to eat.....

Also when the G8 summit was in Birmingham a did a huge bowl of strawberries and covered them in salt instead of sugar luckily the sous chef (who hated me) thought it would be funny to take a handful off the top lol to see the look on his face...
 
Last nights dinner consisted of Lentils and Pinto beans, That's basically all I had in my cupboard, a few herbs, some Fenugreek and other alsorted spices made it taste alright.

It wasn't until the morning tha I'd regretted the high fibred pulses, but I'll spare you the details.
