It's time to face facts: some people just aren't natural cooks. Maybe the fancy photos your friends post on Instagram of summer salads and chicken kabobs look easy enough to replicate, but actually executing the task is a different story.
And reading typical cookbooks and recipes online isn't always helpful. Those instructions assume you have some basic skills in the kitchen and know how to work an oven... Not everyone is at that level.
So, one smartass little sister decided to help out her culinarily-challenged brother with a step-by-step, sassy, overly honest cookbook to prepare him for adulthood.
Imgurian tacopartyinyourmouth posted pictures of the book she wrote for her older brother, Warren. And it does not disappoint.
much more at either link!
SUCH A GREAT SISTER! BWAHAHAHA!

No. Into the shredder with this thing. Couldn't she have...well, you know, shown him how to cook instead of writing a snotty cookbook?
