[She has surprisingly few 'good' stories, and most of her embarrassing stories are overtly sexual and probably not appropriate for someone she's trying to woo...so it takes her a good couple of seconds of looking thoughtful for her to come up with much at all.]
I'm a really bad cook. I've tried to learn since I was a teenager, because I thought it was stupid for Charles to have servants who made us food -- but every time I pick up a recipe, it somehow ends in disaster.
[She pauses.]
Once I tried to cook an egg in the microwave, but I didn't take the shell off and I wrapped it in tin-foil -- that's metal -- and not only did I light the microwave on fire, but the egg exploded. Totally gross.
At home I mostly lived on free hotel breakfasts and on-mission dinners. It isn't so bad.
So -- yeah, trust me when I say cooking you dinner should probably be off the list of potential dates.
