Funny Cooking Cartoons To Make You Laugh Back when I first started this journey to build a website and teach myself and others how to cook, I have to admit that I was a little shy about putting my own mug on the site. So, instead of using my own picture, the cartoon version of RG was born. His mistakes became cartoon captions that we could all laugh at. That way, I could feel less embarrassed by my mistakes since each mistake was material for the cartoon. But as I have become more confident—less reluctant—I feel much better about putting my “real” self out here in front of everyone. But that doesn’t mean that I don’t still love the cartoon me. Here is a collection of my RG cartoons. I’ve come up with a lot of the captions, but readers have also submitted their own. Hopefully you’ll see a bit of yourself in these posts and learn to lighten up and laugh off mistakes, knowing that they are just learning experiences. |

Dad, The Recipe Said One Cup of Wine.Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas. I'm putting this cartoon up to acknowledge my dad who has been ill and just came out of the hospital. My father loves to cook and one of the things I remember about his cooking growing up is his adding too much wine to whatever he was making. I think he thought if a little wine adds flavor to the stew or sauce, a lot of wine would m...
