Bad at cooking

I'm really bad at cooking. When I was younger, I learned how to cook to survive. My sisters and I had a huge age gap and they have thier own words already. Since I was the youngest lady in our house, I was assigned to many of the chores that is needed to be done. My older sisters uses cellphones and idle, while I am very busy running chores and every thing that they needed me to do, even if they can do it like they can reach for something, they call me to get it for them. They were too much, right? I realised it now too but way back? I was very glad to do everything. My mother ris busy but she does all the cooking in the morning. When I have no classes I would prefer it to spend at the farm and do farm chores, when I return from there, my mither would not let me get my hands wet so I'll just be waiting for the food to be served. My older sisters had to cook when the situation is like that. But when I was in high school, there were times that I had to cook dinner and everyone of them are in front of the television. I had to finish cooking on or before 8 in the evening or I'll be hearing things from them. One day, my sister made a comment on my cooking she said I should have done this and that. I felt insulted since the were just idling around and I was very busy, my home works had to wait because I ahd to serve them first. I had to go to the store to buy and cook when at home. To my anger, I told her "you should have cooked the food instead of me" in front of my parents,. Good things my parents didn't scold me for making such a a harsh reaction but mys ister was just too much for me to take. But when I cook, I always have to ask my mother about the taste of the food so everybody will eat it. She would then say what lacks on the flavor. When I got married, my husband does the cooking mostly;. **Now I realized that he doesn't like my cooking so he volunteered**! Haha. Earlier tonight, my husband felt very tired so I volunteered to cook. He bought a kilo of chicken feet and and I cooked it in adobo. I dedicated love to my cooking, I even let him taste it and said it was okay but when the kids tasted it, they asked me if they can make soysauce and oil as their viand. I was deeply hurt it was a insult. I am really bad at cooking and even my children doesn't like it. Even me, I don't like it too, I had to make soysauce and chillies as a dip for it taste better. Good thing I still love my hands because they are capable of doing some other things lie crochet a and drawing and writing but yeah, I suck on them sometimes too. If not so, I would think that I am so useless in this world. Im really bad at cooking and it hurts. One day my daughters and grand kids won't do as I do to my mother and seek for her cooking especially on eggs with tomato and onions. I won't be remembered for such things and they won't get excited coming home for my cooking.
