I tried doing learning the boring way and it worked on a budget

My current rule is simple: if it takes less than 7 minutes to prepare, I am much more likely to keep doing it.

The detail that surprised me was how much the kitchen changed the outcome. Same plan, different setting, completely different energy.

This is adorable and oddly motivating. This would have saved me a lot of trial and error. Naming things remains undefeated as the hardest problem.

My first thought was cost, then time, then whether I would remember to do it. I noticed the same thing in Lagos.
