Cooking should not be this hard

[madimpossibledreamer]

...I'm pretty sure it's not supposed to take 4 hours to prepare everything.  What am I doing wrong.  Why can't I just bake, or maybe make pancakes or a homemade pizza or something.  I know how to make those.
Okay, time for time-honored method.  When in trouble, when in doubt, run in circles, scream and shout.
Tired hyper, in other words.  Mentally.  Physically, I don't want to move from this spot.  It's not even that comfortable.
