Gahhh! I just can't let myself multitask when I'm cooking! It always results in disaster. Whether its typing up a blog post or texting a friend I always end up burning something! I really am a good cook - I just get distracted and lose track of time; I've had this problem my whole life. I remember getting in trouble as a teenager when I was on morning baking duty at my parents' café because I was trying to prep something else while the cookies where in the oven and wouldn't realise how many minutes had passed, and would ruin 3-4 dozen at a time. Now its my poor pup who pays the price and makes me feel guilty when I burn something: At least he has an excellent instinct about running away from smoke!
