And also, I discovered how to spread butter properly. The secret is to keep the butter on the knife and distribute it equally, not to spread the butter from the bread. I'm a genius!

It worries me that he kept this place running for so long. What does that say about the rest of us? ( :

That, I will have to give a try. :)
The first meal I ever cooked Mrs_monkey_man was pot noodle served on a plate. We became students soon after that.
What you need: A half eaten chicken left over from the day before (failing this just get a couple of fresh drumsticks from the butchers)
An asortement of vegetables. Most will do but i tend to use carrots(about 3), turnip/sweed(half of one), a cabbage leave, and onion(half of one).
A chicken OXO cube. Or cheaper unbranded alternative.
A bay leaf. Adds flavour.
Half a mug of barley. Adds barley.
What to do: Fill a pan with water.
Place chicken in pan still attached to bone (you remove the bones later, they add flavour while cooking)
Chop up vegetables and throw in pan. Also add OXO cube and bay leaf.
Turn on the hob and stir regularly until the solid vegeelables turn into a soupy mixture.
When cooked add the barley and heat up ready to eat.
Dont forget to not eat the bones (they are easy to remove while eating).

OK first thing i ever learnt to make with my mate was simply pasta with a sprinkle of cheese and ham
Do you know how to make pasta?
Anyway this is what I do.
Boil kettle and poor the amount of pasta you need into a BIG pan. Always use the biggest pan you can as the best pasta is made with best pot!
Sprinkle some salt over the dry pasta when its not on heat and a little olive oil.
When boiled pour the water so it covers the pasta entirely leaving atleast an inch over the pasta. To start with put your hob onto about 8 or if it is gas, jus over midway.
It will cook like this for a while and if it starts to bubble and go insane - turn it down.
Meanwhile grate your cheese and cut your ham as you would like it as preparation.
stir the pasta every now and then to prevent sticking and try it as you go along. After about 15/20 minutes your pasta should be done but sometimes more or less... to your own taste
Now it should not be falling apart, it should be soft to taste but also firm - not hard though..
Turn off the heat. Boil some more water and get a colender. Pour the pasta into the colender to drain away water, pour cold water into the pasta to drain away starch - then pour new kettles worth of boiling water to heat.
Pour into a bowl mix in grated cheese that will inevitabally melt and add ham
- Ham and cheese pasta

Why would I want to cook a friendly egg?
Yes I like pasta, just gimme some recipes that even someone with no hands could make using his mouth and a head-rod with whisk attachment.
