00:00:00.278 --> 00:00:02.550
- I'm not allowed to do takeout.

00:00:02.550 --> 00:00:05.107
I'm not allowed to go out to a restaurant.

00:00:05.107 --> 00:00:07.602
I am going to be making my food.

00:00:07.602 --> 00:00:10.185
(upbeat music)

00:00:20.797 --> 00:00:22.130
I am a bad cook.

00:00:23.670 --> 00:00:25.253
I am a lazy person.

00:00:26.219 --> 00:00:29.321
I don't have the time
and the patience to cook.

00:00:29.321 --> 00:00:31.304
I really need to learn to cook a little

00:00:31.304 --> 00:00:33.991
because, you know,
going out to restaurants

00:00:33.991 --> 00:00:36.022
is wasting a lot of money.

00:00:36.022 --> 00:00:39.464
My goal is to find one
meal that is easy to do

00:00:39.464 --> 00:00:41.724
that I can do every week.

00:00:41.724 --> 00:00:43.384
I realize I made a mistake

00:00:43.384 --> 00:00:46.270
in that I froze the chicken

00:00:46.270 --> 00:00:48.317
and it really needs to be defrosted.

00:00:48.317 --> 00:00:52.731
So, we are going to have
some issues with that.

00:00:52.731 --> 00:00:54.215
Timing things so that they end up

00:00:54.215 --> 00:00:56.285
at the same time is difficult.

00:00:56.285 --> 00:00:58.696
I'm really impressed with restaurants.

00:00:58.696 --> 00:01:00.268
Pulled out the slow cooker

00:01:00.268 --> 00:01:04.101
and um, just put all the
ingredients in there.

00:01:05.010 --> 00:01:06.840
So tonight what I'm eating,

00:01:06.840 --> 00:01:08.173
oh, it's so hot,

00:01:09.177 --> 00:01:12.931
okay, that's the last
corn on the cob I had.

00:01:12.931 --> 00:01:14.098
I bought that.

00:01:15.730 --> 00:01:16.563
I didn't make it.

00:01:16.563 --> 00:01:20.230
And that is the chicken
that was slow cooked

00:01:21.894 --> 00:01:23.465
that I made up last night.

00:01:23.465 --> 00:01:24.614
There's a feeling of accomplishment

00:01:24.614 --> 00:01:27.781
when you finish cooking
a dish and it's edible.

00:01:27.781 --> 00:01:31.027
But for me, it didn't happen that often.

00:01:31.027 --> 00:01:32.940
I made some pretty bad meals.

00:01:32.940 --> 00:01:36.194
I like fruit, but I heard
it's like healthy candy.

00:01:36.194 --> 00:01:38.032
So, I'm trying not to get too much.

00:01:38.032 --> 00:01:42.199
So right now I'm making a
peach and blueberry smoothie.

00:01:43.267 --> 00:01:44.100
This isn't a recipe.

00:01:44.100 --> 00:01:45.785
This is a made up recipe.

00:01:45.785 --> 00:01:48.195
I don't know if the peaches
were the right decision.

00:01:48.195 --> 00:01:49.695
I had an incident.

00:01:50.604 --> 00:01:54.771
Okay, so I'm making a chicken
and broccoli casserole.

00:01:56.148 --> 00:01:59.247
I left the plastic cover
on my casserole dish

00:01:59.247 --> 00:02:01.366
and cooked it for about an hour.

00:02:01.366 --> 00:02:03.826
I'm sorry, I'm just such an idiot.

00:02:03.826 --> 00:02:05.326
I'm such an idiot.

00:02:06.448 --> 00:02:07.281
Oh my god.

00:02:08.555 --> 00:02:09.388
Oh my god.

00:02:11.177 --> 00:02:13.123
It's so embarrassing

00:02:13.123 --> 00:02:16.202
because, you know, I feel
like 10 year olds know

00:02:16.202 --> 00:02:18.118
you don't put plastic in the oven.

00:02:18.118 --> 00:02:20.075
I know you don't put plastic in the oven,

00:02:20.075 --> 00:02:22.512
but I put plastic in the oven.

00:02:22.512 --> 00:02:24.839
The fumes from the burned plastic,

00:02:24.839 --> 00:02:28.009
we were inhaling them and
we were poisoning ourselves

00:02:28.009 --> 00:02:29.389
so we went outside.

00:02:29.389 --> 00:02:30.674
It's not worth it.

00:02:30.674 --> 00:02:31.910
Cooking's not worth it.

00:02:31.910 --> 00:02:33.971
It really hurt my ego to learn that

00:02:33.971 --> 00:02:35.498
I was that bad at cooking.

00:02:35.498 --> 00:02:36.848
Right now I'm being very brave

00:02:36.848 --> 00:02:39.941
and I'm making my pasta dish.

00:02:39.941 --> 00:02:40.804
That's right.

00:02:40.804 --> 00:02:42.699
I'm stepping it up.

00:02:42.699 --> 00:02:44.595
I'm gonna eat healthy.

00:02:44.595 --> 00:02:48.178
And also, I'm gonna eat food I cook

00:02:48.178 --> 00:02:50.089
'cause that's gonna be a big step for me.

00:02:50.089 --> 00:02:53.508
My goal is to find one
meal that is easy to do

00:02:53.508 --> 00:02:55.927
that I can do every week.

00:02:55.927 --> 00:03:00.438
♫ Pasta pasta Christmas pasta ♫

00:03:00.438 --> 00:03:01.271
It's good.

00:03:01.271 --> 00:03:02.284
I would eat it.

00:03:02.284 --> 00:03:05.117
Just like I would eat every pasta.

00:03:06.936 --> 00:03:09.618
(contented moaning)

00:03:09.618 --> 00:03:13.184
I learned that I need very simple recipes.

00:03:13.184 --> 00:03:15.164
I learned that I should follow recipes

00:03:15.164 --> 00:03:18.376
because some people are born to cook

00:03:18.376 --> 00:03:19.876
and others are not

00:03:20.759 --> 00:03:21.842
and I am not.

00:03:24.647 --> 00:03:26.668
Going buck wild and making things up

00:03:26.668 --> 00:03:28.111
and that did not turn out well for me.
