I learned to cook, quite by accident. When i was married to my first husband , a long time ago, he wanted supper the minute he walked in the door,.....I'm sure you know what I mean ladies! Well, he didnt like many things, so the majority of my cooking was hamburger. Hamburger helper they say takes 20 minutes,...well they lie, if you crank up the heat to high, it takes 5 minutes, I know i used to be the queen. My hubby now says i should have written a cook book:

~~~ High Flame Cookin with Shirleyshell ~~

When hubby and I got married, he threw out all the pans and bought new ones, because they were so burnt. So i did come along way, and no I dont cook Hamburger Helper for 5 minutes anymore!

I cook it in 6...LOL
