I tried to make spaghetti for my boyfriend and I, and I messed it up. The noodles got all soggy and really gross.

and I kinda made the boyfriend a little upset.

I'm an awful cook. The wife isn't very good, either. Thank god we live in a city with 5 million take-out options.

I'm an excellent cook. Wondering how you managed to mess up spaghetti?

LOL, Yenta. That was brilliant.

Captain, I don't do so well in the kitchen myself. When I had a baking business a couple years ago, it was great. But give me a chicken, you'll get food poisoning. I'm terrible.

Oh, I find cooking rather easy:

1. Take the "Healthy Choice Frozen Dinner" Out of The Carton.

2. Poke holes in wrap over Dinner.

3. Place Dinner in Microwave...

That's what's sad. I'm impatient and the water was bubbly (not really boiling) when I put the noodles in there, but then the water never started boiling...so they just ended up getting soppy.

I'm pretty good, especially when I follow my grandmother's recipes. Except I don't like washing dishes.

Soggy noodles, you probably boiled them too long.

If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.

Ah, pasta is pretty fattening anyway...

Capt'n, I can offer you foul-proof method of making pasta dishes so delicious and impressive that your boyfriend, or any of your company, will never want you to leave the kitchen.

Well, ah, the house at least.

DGrant - as the joke goes, "What do Jewish girls make for dinner?"

- Reservations.

Or in my mother's case, Elite Kosher Catering.

I have no shame.

Captain, switch to Barilla pasta. Practically impossible to make it soggy!

I'm not sure what brand we used...and David has already taken out the trash, so we'll never know.
