[quote=Anonymous]I find bread easy but cake deceptively hard. I can make a bread loaf look bakery-window-worthy without that much effort, but every time I make a cake, I feel embarrassed by it. I've watched videos and read lots of tips on ways to make sure a layer cake stays level, how to make the icing look smooth and professional, etc. But even an ultra simply cake always looks a mess when I do it. They taste good at least. I also find any meal that involves cooking a whole bird much harder than I think it should be. Not even talking about like a Thanksgiving dinner but even just a roast chicken. Partly I just hate dealing with poultry that hasn't already been deboned. But also I find it so much harder to properly season the full bird and cook to temp. It's so fussy. I make my DH handle it whenever we do this. I'm fine with boneless breasts and thighs but have no idea what to do with a whole bird or even a 1/2 chicken or something.[/quote]
