  Main topic aside, what are you doing putting bread and butter together with a fork?

  All the small appliance suggestions so far are great - they remove a lot of the danger and give you an easy place to start. Same for the safety items. Even with no fear, it is sensible to have an extinguisher and fire blanket in the kitchen.

  When you feel that you are ready to start picking up knives and working with flame, do it with a friend or family member that is suitably understanding & willing to teach. Simply watching it done is still familiarising yourself with the process and hopefully reducing your fears.

  My sister is the same way - I am teaching her slowly. We started with baking, as all the prep work is done cold with only one heating process. Not exactly healthy, but it it gets the ball rolling on working with heat.

  However, voters don’t listen to economists. If they’re not happy with the status quo, they vote for disrupting the status quo even if experts tell them that that’s a bad idea.

  Also see: Brexit.

  Sadly it does not stop them whining about the consequences of their poor decision-making.

  They can keep it then.

  The music really planted the game in its age and was half the bloody fun!

  They did Vice City dirty this way too.

  A blast to play though. Old memories with new twists.

  Expanded Xen and shortened On A Rail perfected it.
