He was hungry. She was hungry. So, they decided to eat but neither knew how to cook.
They tried boiling white rice but ended up with a mushy mess that looked more like toothpaste than food. The stew didn’t turn out any better, a pot of tasteless red liquid that eventually ended its life as the beginnings of someone else’s last resort concoction rice
.
Then, they tried warming soup for eba but both got carried away watching “Tinsel” reruns; you can guess that it got burnt beyond recognition and that the water for eba dried up.
One last attempt: indomie, water, pot and fire. Until it was done- well, almost; they forgot the seasoning.
How does one manage a relationship where neither partner can cook?
1. Break up because it’s hopeless
OR
2. Order takeout: pizza, chicken and chips
Why didn’t they think of that earlier? Maybe it’s because they were so hungry…
