Ladies and gentlemen....i am going to...*cue dramatic music* ATTEMPT TO COOK! Oh yes! I don't mean instant noodles in a pan kind of cop-out fajita making kit I mean from scratch, chopped veggies and carefully measured salt and pepper, actually use a chopping board and measuring jug thingie cook! I am making....SOUP! It can't go wrong. It can't burn. It won't blow up in the microwave like last weeks potatoes (oh yeah fun fact if you don't poke them with a fork beforehand they explode???? LOVELY) and I have a recipe! AN IDIOTS GUIDE TO MAKING LENTIL SOUP! This cannot fail!!

Anyway just in case, JUST in case, something goes tragically wrong and I say...accidentally split a few atoms and create nuclear holocaust please don't hold it against me in the afterlife. I CAME I SAW I STUCK IN A PAN AND PROVIDED FOR THY FAMILY! Hurray. That is all...
