    Brother?

    Even more frustrating, because when she turned 70, she admitted that she never liked cooking anyway, but will still tell us we’re doing it wrong.

      Frustrating indeed.

      But maybe the reason she didn’t want you in the kitchen was because she didn’t want you (or anyone) to watch her struggling. And the reason she’s so critical is that she spent decades criticizing herself in there.

      Or maybe not. I don’t know your mother.
