What easy things are you just shit at?

[coastergirl]

It's ridiculous. I'm a 37 year old woman. I have 2 kids, a job I love. I function reasonably well!

I cannot butter bread. I make a complete mess of it. Holes in the bread etc. I can't blame it on hard butter because I use marg.

I'm ill and bored. Please make me feel better by telling me the "easy" things you're shit at.

You do need 'cold hands ' to make pastry apparently! Mine ends up a mess , hence the reason that the roll out ones are much easier to deal with.
Plus I loath cooking and just not that good at it.

I can't blow or tie balloons.

Anything requiring coordination as I can't tell left from right. Any kind of fitness class is excruciating!

Cooking rice. Just can’t manage it.

Thought if another, curling my hair with a straightener. Everyone can do it except me.

I maybe get one or two nice curls but everything else is just weird right angle kinks and more thumb burns!

I’ve completely altered my thumb print from the burns!

I can't curl my hair with straighteners either. Or do much with my hair in general.

Run (although weirdly in my dreams I can run for miles and miles)

Dance

Write in a straight line on plain paper

Write without smudging the ink

Butter bread (cack handed)

Knit

Do anything other then a basic whole cross cross stitch

Plan and judge things to all con-side with each other.

Poaching eggs

Making rice

Dressing for my body shape. I just have no clue and often wish I had a live-in personal stylist.
I look at stylish women and just think...how?
I live in jeans and jumpers and often look like a potato.

I could have written this.

Golf.

I’m really sporty, always been good at sports, great hand eye coordination.

Cannot hit that little fucking ball for shit.

I have the same issue!

I’ve had golf pros scratching their head because apparently my swing is great, everything is as it should be, but I just cannot connect with the damn ball!

I can't tie a balloon end!

I can cook, I can do rice, cook all different sorts of eggs, bake cakes, make meringues but I just cannot make Yorkshire Puddings they are impossible. I have given up, Aunt Bessie is my friend.

Another potato here.

I'm rubbish at blowing up balloons and when i eventually do get enough air in the sodding thing I can't for the life tie a knot at the end

catching things. You know when someone throws you the door keys? I drop them every time.

The James Martin recipe on BBC good food is your best fiend. I didn't have a clue what I was doing but they've been flawless everytime.

I'm a bit of an odd one when it comes to cooking. I wouldn't class myself as a great cook, but there are lots of things that other people find difficult, that I can do well. All types of eggs, risotto, Yorkshire puddings, no problem.

And yet, I still can't butter bread. 🤷‍♀️

Putting lids on things! It takes me ages to match the lid with the bottle/jar etc and actually screw the thing on!

@FloBot7 I'll have a look, willing to give them one more try!!

Parking
Using a can opener. I have broken every type!
