>First of all, I've seen this thread before...hrm. Why is that?
I've made this thread before, that's why.
>This is a cookbook you're pumping for info to make?
No, there are countless such cookbooks online. I come here to talk with peope about things I like, in this case, cooking.
>Are you a dept secretary?
I'm a teacher.
Are you codependent?
I have many traits of that, but I cook for others because I genuinely love cooking and I like to give things to others, so I just do what makes me happy to do without thinking of what others might say.
>Is this actually your job to provide snacks?
It's not, but some coworkers said they'd happily pay for my foodly items.
>If none of the above, and you're simply trying to impress your cooking prowess
I also need to train, and I can't possibly eat 50 croissants on my own.
>I would feel free to bring in a tin of brownies or cookies, or homemade crackers (southern cheese biscuit).
I have never made cookies or brownies, so far, but I'm curious.
Another criterion I forgot to mention was that I can't really cook in the morning; everything I make needs to spend the night before consumption, and this changes how things taste quite a bit.
You have lots of ideas. I like that.
For context, I was raised in a cult and I don't know much about the real world.
