[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It upsets you because you want your effort to be appreciated and enjoyed, which makes sense. But so too does the idea that you can’t win ‘em all. Every dish won’t be a hit. It’s natural to be disappointed—let yourself feel that instead of judging yourself and trying NOT to feel it. And after you’ve felt it a bit, put it in perspective: do the6 like some of what you try? Much of it? This is just one dish to add to the “not again” column, but how many do you have in the “please make it again” column?[/quote] All of this. Plus, OP, as you pointed out yourself - it's not a recipe you created. So, when trying new things, they cannot all be liked equally. And even your best execution cannot make up for a recipe that maybe just wasn't amazing, or at least, not to your family's taste. It's a process of trial and elimination to find favorites. [/quote]
