I should just give up...

My sister once managed to burn soup...and melt the paneling on the wall just making toast...these things happen and I bet whatever you did this morning you won't do again. No one is born being able to cook so don't worry about it. You'll figure it out eventually and if not be thankful, not all of us have a good reason to make our hubbies cook for us.

Oh no Im so sorry that happened. I guess you just had the flame alittle too high!LOL Did anything get wrecked? Dont let one episode get you down on cooking. Keep trying!

LOL Things like that happen to all of us. Next time take a few moments to check if anything is on or under the burner before using. It takes a while and a lot of mistakes to learn how to cook. My daughter always wanted to turn the stove up so everything could cook faster...little did she know that it would end up burned on the outside and raw on the inside, until she tried it. She is a pretty good cook now and she takes her time when cooking...no more burned food. Don't give up yet. Who knows you may be a great cook someday soon.

I am glad no one was hurt.I guess it is time to give up. But at least you tried. I don't cook, but I can bake. I would never try to cook.But look on the bright side,there are microwaves and just heat and eat foods out there. No fuss no muss.And no fires.

Wow, well you can learn things just hang around the kitchen with the help of your hubby.. And please dont burn down the house..

Sounds like someone needs to invest in some cooking classes there, eh? ;)

A plus for telling all of us how lame you are! (You know that I am teasing you). And, did you know that if you put eggs in a pot to boil and leave them on the stove to go watch TV, and then get a shower, and then watch more TV, and then run to the kitchen because you hear loud explosions happening in there and you need to save your babies what will happen? I will tell you. The water will boil off. The eggs will expand out of their shells. The shells will burn badly but you won't know that in advance because smoke detectors haven't yet been invented or if they have you don't know about them. And the grand finale is that the eggs grow so big that they burst in glorious yellow and greyish white all over (and I do mean all over) your kitchen walls and ceiling. Can you tell that this is from personal experience a very long time ago?Crap happens in the kitchen, lecanis, and no one was hurt. Love you bunches~Donna

LoL I hope that it's not about your problems, I believe I know the "D" you're mentioning here!;) I love hash browns, I even make some of them here for breakfast and snacks!;) I love to cook, it's a big plus for us men to know our ways in the kitchen!LoL

One messed up meal does not constitute a bad cook. Maybe you just need more practice. Think of it as a life long learning experience. You will get good at cooking somethings with practice and others meals you will choose not to make. If you started a fire, you might not have been paying attention to what you were doing. Besides, those hash browns burn easily if left in the skillet too long.

Hi lecanis, I am so sorry to hear about your "disaster in the kitchen" please don't let it get you down though. everyone makes mistakes ... it's called being human. The only way to get better is to keep practicing! Luv & Hugzz, PurpleTeddyBear.

Thought of taking cooking lessons? And to maximize the experience, drag your husband along. Oops, I should be telling that to your husband-he pretends that he wants to learn how to cook when in real essence he's telling you that your cooking is boring. Guess I am a better cook than you are.

Dont give up on cooking hun. Just keep on practicing. Chose a few easy recipes and just keep cooking those until they are the way you want them. Then add a new recipe pretty soon you will be cooking anything and everything.
