Cooking Lesson #1 !!

Ok .. let me figure out a way on how to start .. From the beginning it is :)

Sooo last year we had this new cook .. yay all good, turns out he wasn't much of a cook, long story short; he didn't even know how to turn the stove on :S

So we started sending him from house to house (our relatives) so he would learn the basics of Kuwaiti food, it took him a couple of months to get the hang of it yet it's still not so good..

What did we learn from this story ?! : Kambi does not eat food cooked by Basheer (Our "cook").

soo when I started dieting a few months ago, it wasn't soo bad, i wasn't eating his food anyway so no big deal ..

Now my mom started a diet also, and she was like : "Mama what are you having for lunch today?"
I told her: "Haven't decided yet .. You?"
Mom: "I'm having Mayd ( type of fish ) u want to eat with me ?!"
Me: "YAAH !!"

ok so I'm waiting for her to finish our Mayd, I prefer the Mayd cooked 3al fa7am .. then when the food gets here i get the shook of my life and i find out that it's not 3al fa7am but bil firin :S

Ok .. no problem, just suck it up and enjoy the food with your mother :D

So i open up the finish to eat it, and what do i find ?!?!?!?!?!?! BLOOD !!!!!!
i was sooo hungry i felt my eyes start to water, i turn to mom and say : "Seriously ?!"

and she's like :" awww, take it they'll put it in the stove again and it'll be ok, here try this one."

i open the 2nd one and it's good .. soo i start to eat it, but there's this bitter taste :S soo my mom looks at me and say : "Ohh honey don't eat that, here try this one."

What was i thinking you say ?! "AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH"
I get up from the table as calmly as i can and say .. "mom this is soooooooooooo not gonna work, i can't eat this.. i'm sorry"

Oh on a side note .. This is the 2nd time that this has happened in the same week, but do i learn ?!?! NOOOOOOOOOOOO

Mom ofcourse looked at me funny as if I don't appreciate food anymore ..

So what did i do ?! I did the most natural thing anyone could doo .. I blamed it on my diet :D
Me : "Mom i'm sorry but i can't eat this if i'm gonna go through my diet."

Now i just have to figure out a way to go out and get my lunch.. BTW i'm still starving :(

Moral to the story
If your cook is as shitty as ours (Pardon my French) you have 2 options:
1) Learn to cook for yourself ..
2) Eat out !!! alot of places deliver ..
