I can't drink alcohol, so I don't have much use for a corkscrew.

My problem with cooking seems to be the opposite of the problems with engineers; I'm patently incapable of following instructions because a) I don't want to buy all that stuff, and b) I'm lazy. This works really well with simple dishes like pastas and basic rice dishes, but is a lot harder with something like risotto, or god forbid, baking.

I'll have to learn how to stuff properly as my next step I think.
