Things to remember when cooking
1)Pan lids also get hot in the oven they are mot magically immune
2)Rice expands when boiled.
This I forgot when cooking yesterday the result two burnt fingers and enough rice left over to feed ten people.
Anybody got any cooking stories?

Making "just one BIG cookie" does not work.

I'm trying to think of funny anecdotes, but all I can cook is spaghetti, and it's rather idiot-proof...

:(

When making coffee remember to add water, otherwise it's no good.

Okay if it happens once, but twice ...

I was a cook in high school and all thru college (part time the last 2 years) all at nice restaurants, and it has been my experience that you should always remember to cook a little extra for the bartender and the hot waitress. A free beer and some nice company after your shift is always nice.

Restaurant rule to live by, if your not going to make $30 bucks an hour then you should eat $30 bucks an hour!

While cooking at home it is best to know that baking chocolate is not the same as the candy bar kind.
