    I learned young that I have to use timers for all cooking tasks. I have zero ability to identify how much time passes. I’ve always been jealous of people who just throw food in the oven or on the stove, do a bunch of stuff, and instinctively retrieve all the food, properly cooked.

      Wierdly, when I do put a timer on, I can. I suddenly realise it’s been about 17 minutes and I’ll check and the timer is 20 seconds off ringing. Only happens when I actually put a timer on though, and I can’t intentionally do it.
