cooking.

Miranda went to Wal-Mart for some groceries and other stuff. Whilst being gone, Nellie came up to me and wanted a hamburger. I have no clue how to cook a hamburger. Miranda had made one for her earlier and the pan was still on the stove. So I called Miranda and she told me how. I am not a good cook because I'm too punctual. This comes from years of computer programming. You do not tell the computer to "continue until the meat is brown". You say... "cook for 5 minutes" and the computer does exactly that. A "pinch of salt"? Whatever. A "bit of garlic". What? A recipe should be like a computer program. Very punctual. Anywho... I "cooked until meat was brown" and come up with a decent burger. It wasn't red on the inside so I figured it was decent. It definitely won't kill her because she has taken one bite and the rest will probably go to waste. The joys of fatherhood. I can now cook a hamburger without a recipe. "One small step for man, one giant leap for Billkind" as it were.
