I cooked for family last week and it tasted pretty bad. I know they noticed, but they didn't say anything.
Your family was being polite. If I did that my family would order a pizza, hah.
I can tell they were just being polite too. I let myself down. I'll have to focus more next time.
It's all good. Maybe you should try something simple like Hamburger Helper. Can't really  mess that up.
