    I do understand the bit of needing to feed myself and all, but just randomly going up and cooking is sadly not something I can afford Which is quite f-ed, I like to knead bread loaf

      Can you explain? Is it cheaper to eat out / eat processed foods than buy groceries to cook? I’ve never lived in a place with that situation, but I understand it’s a possibility.

        Not cheap to eat out (and processed food is… Only one I get is instant noodles but that one is just cuz I’m a lazy bastard XD) Another user pointed out the difference on what I said, not cooking out of necessity but cooking for fun is what I’m saying is expensive Cooking for myself is literally how I can make-do with all expenses, but actively randomly going to cook something when I dont have the necessity for it(eg. for fun) is something I can’t spare because the amount of groceries I end up being able to purchase tends to be counted to last for the month/week in quite a tight budget

        It isn’t always like that, sometimes I can afford to get some extra eggs and flour to do a small cake, or last time with my mom we tried to make a sourdough(it was a disaster, I fucked up badly lulz), but those are quite hard for me to be able to do enough to call cooking a hobby.
