Today, my mother-in-law gifted us with a new microwave. I told her it was too much and we didn't really need it. Her response, "I just want my grandkids to have food that tastes good for once." I'm a chef. FML

Just tell her, "I know what you mean, my husband said he had to eat the dog's food behind your back when he was growing up so he didn't starve."

You're a chef, but your mom thinks you make food that tastes bad? I don't get it. Maybe she thinks your food is too bland because you cook with plain ol' store-bought meat, and the real tasty stuff is possum, raccoon, skunk, armadillo and other road kill. Any other ideas?

DO NOT COOK AN ARMADILLO IN A MICROWAVE. You've been warned.

You forgot squirrels. Those furry little bastards are the best, especially with A1 steak sauce.

I zipped through it a bit too quickly. I'm used to dealing with literate people like you fawfulster who know enough to hyphenate mother-in-law. I'm sure a mother-in-law thinks they need a microwave to cook the sushi.

This is what you get when you try to be "nice" and don't accept gifts. She already bought it, just say "Thank you," and accept it.

Whenever she's over, make really awful casseroles in the microwave and serve them to her. Make it up to your kids by taking them out for ice cream after she leaves.

I think that if someone is willing to pay OP for cooking, then OP can cook well.
