Defeated

I'm a 38 year old single mom who is about to split with the father in October. I have codependency issues so I've never been on my own especially not with a mini me. I say that to say this: please tell me there's hope for me. Her father keeps telling her since your mom can't cook you need to live with me etc. But that's not why I want to learn. I wasn't taught, can't change that. But I can break a cycle and teach my little. Any ideas on where to go, how to start? I'm so self conscious about this.

Hello. I love cooking. I love eating too. When my grandma taught me how to cook she told me that the key to learning how to cook is to make something you know you already like eating. Think of you favorite dish and look for recipes online. And just keep at it. Even the best cook has an off day and burns or ruins a dish. More importantly, it doesn't matter if you can or can't cook. Everyone has their gifts and yours are just as valuable.

There is a lot of online resources. YouTube is a great place to learn from . Don’t be put off just because you wasn’t talking people learn different skills at later stages in life eg swimming and driving. As long as you are willing to learn . Your partner is just being complicated and making you feel worthless. Don’t feed in into what he says to your child. You can do it ! Anyone can do it !

I love using pinterest as a source for recipes. Just search easy recipes and four ingrwdient recipes. Take it one step at a time, you'll get there. And with each meal you'll build onto your confidence ♡ you've got this !
