2. And friends love coming to yours because you always go the extra mile when hosting them.
3. Hosting your friends means you get to get to test out recipes on them.
4. And show off your latest DIY project.
5. Because you're always trying to test something new, you've had your fair share of accidents in the kitchen.

18. But no matter how bad your cooking is, your friends will always be complimentary.
19. And you'll relax a little and realise it's all perfectly fine.

21. And you'll be amazed at how much booze you've all managed to get through.

24. But it's always worth it to look after your friends and feel like a proper adult with their shit together.
