My Mom could cook 7 things - I could tell you what day of the week it was by the food.......... I never even tasted broccoli until I went to college

A few years ago, my m-in-law went through a kind of "housewife midlife crisis" and deviated from her "regular 7" menu. It was horrible. She's VERY GOOD at making those 7 dishes, but nothing else.

Same here, except it was the USMC. I'd never eaten broccoli, cauliflower or Brussels sprouts!.............

Ha! That sounds like my mom.

She did well with what she knew though. Had an aunt who could cook from scratch(cakes were her specialty)... but she didn't have a passion for cooking. It was ALWAYS a pleasure to have dinner at her house!
