My mum thinks French toast is just bread soaked in egg and sticks everything in the oven at 200°C and I mean everything

The list could go on and on but that would turn this post into a text wall

    I learned how to cook out of self defense…

    True story… my sister and I were at our grandparents house and gramma was in the kitchen peeling potatoes.

    My sister, six years old, goes “Oh! What are those?”

    Me: “Those are ‘potatoes’, that’s where french fries come from…”

    Yeah, mom didn’t cook. Dad literally couldn’t make toast. The only reason we had ice cubes was because the recipe had been handed down from father to son…
