Carpooled with a lady co-worker today. She was late, so I had to wait for her 10 minutes. Cool. That didn't bother me too much though since I am a girl and have been known to be late on occasion (it's not easy being a girl). So yea, we chitchat about the weather, weekend plans, then got onto the topic of eating breakfast. That somehow led to her saying, "I can tell you're not much of a cook. Don't worry, I hardly cooked at your age too."

Wait, what?

I'm pretty sure I cook all the time--at least 4 times a week. I like cooking for my friends, and I practically made Thanksgiving dinner for my entire family last year--the whole nine yards with turkey AND ham. I don't know why this offended me so much because I obviously know she doesn't know me very well. But I think that's just it. What compelled her to say that about me to me, instead of simply asking me. Was it THAT obvious? Do I just look or act completely un-domestic (not that you have to be domestic to cook). Ironically, many of my close friends believe I was born to be a suburban housewife. I don't really take that as a compliment either, but my co-worker's statement seemed to deem me incapable of doing something that I actually can and love to do. I guess it makes sense that I don't appreciate the comment, but I didn't think I would be so bothered by it. I really don't deserve to vent because I could have just told her I do cook, but she was rambling on, and it didn't seem polite to interrupt. My goodness lady, just ask next time!

On another note, I started playing Anipang. I kinda suck, so that's why I'm always begging for more hearts from people.
