Shh! How to quiet your inner critic
I have this bad little habit, at least according to my husband. I love to cook and entertain friends and family, but inevitably, whether it’s after I’ve made my Dutch apple pie or my meat lasagne or chocolate chip cookies, I have trouble accepting compliments about the dish. “Nah, it’s too salty/not spicy enough/should be crunchier/wish I’d baked it longer/needs some cinnamon” are the kinds of comebacks I, well, come back with.
