Cooking note

The main realization from the post is that cooking is not as hard as I made it in my head. It is mostly patience, willingness to get messy, and repeating simple dishes until they get better.

It also made food feel less like macros only and more like independence.

Takeaway

Cooking is becoming a real hobby, not just a nutrition tool. It gives me something physical and useful while I am between bigger startup ideas.
