Cooking Disability

"The greatest barrier to success is the fear of failure" 

- Sven Goran 

Who loves cooking?

I guess a lot of you does!

Being in the states (campus especially) taught me to cook a great deal

back home I can't even turn on the stove because I have a phobia upon fire!

So, today I cooked! :) hooray! Before me cooking I want to show you

one of the shoes my mom gave me from Indonesia

They're so cute and today when I wear it I feel so comfy , puffy >.<

GOSH Indonesia 

I optimistically opened it and was imagining eating the HOTTIE brownies :) 

awesome! yum!!

NOT until I realize that I put A LOT more oil *TOO MUCH* in it

even more than 2x instructed .

CRAP! I screwed it up.

And the result? OILY LIQUID BROWNIE :(

I am so not good with cooking, do not even dare to call it ability whatsoever!

actually I have been into these kind of thing a lot:

1. when I was in primary school, we had a cooking class

The teacher instructed us to cook 'sayur asem' - sour veggies soup

what happened I put 1sack of salt all of them inside the soup

and my teacher said, "sea water, or soup?" 

since then I realized I have no talent at cooking at all.

2. after taking baking course at Nilasari, I decided to make a birthday cake

for my dear brother. 

My mom bought me all the best ingredients (high quality), expecting a tremendously

awesome birthday cake

unfortunately I put too much VINEGAR on the icing - and tadaaaa---> no one dare to eat it

- and etc. 

HOWEVER........

life keeps going, if I do not try.. I won't be able to do it, right?

I think the chance of me living in the apartment is a great opportunity to teach me

how to NORMALLY cook.. :)

Any idea for cooking idiot like me????

LOVE.
