I need to learn scones, cakes...
and how to cook for a lot of people without panicking.
Proudest day of my life was a giant fry-up for 5 people. How pathetic!

I'm not good cooking for big groups unless it's something easy like spag bol.
Buffet food FTW!

Chips and dips? :D

I just raid the Marks and Spencer buffet selection and no-one complains.
I make up for the lack of home cooking with my awesome hostessing skills.

Oh yeah, I could make spagbol and chilli to feed an army haha
But when you see people doing dinner parties and there are all these fiddly components (or even the timing of a fry-up really) you think "BLIMEY!"

A fry-up's still a good thing to be able to prepare . . .
Legless cooks almost every night here - else we'd be eating at stupid o'clock most nights :)

Edit: Thank you BGB :)

Another bonus for finger food is very little washing up.
Davros is just starting to tackle the aftermath of cooking fondue the night before. I'm hanging around like a spare part waiting to do something helpful and Tourettes is conked out on the sofa because she was up till 5am playing in the snow with Mildew.

I hope mildew is a critter
and not some actual fungus.

But I like seeing people enjoy food I've made.
*feeder*

Mildew is their spakka dog and is one of the few large dogs I've ever took a shine to.
Yeah it is nice to see people enjoy the food you make, even if it's just a bacon sarnie in the morning.

Man, I really want a fryup now.

Which means putting clothes on and finding an open shop. Boo!
