I guess I could make some of those things too if I had the patience to follow a recipe book. I just can't be bothered with all that weighing and clock-watching. Everything I make is an adventure and I never know how it's going to turn out, although generally I like what I cook. PA likes it when I cook too, but he is a far better cook than I am. A couple of years ago I made what I thought was a delicious soup and was so proud of it I wanted my Dad to taste it. He nearly choked, spat it out and thought I was trying to poison him. That is not good for the confidence.
