A Recipe for Drama: Southern Hospitality vs. Roommate Boundaries
In a tale as flavorful as a New Orleans gumbo, our culinary student finds himself in hot water, not for his cooking, but for his manners! Offering to wash cars, mowing the lawn, baking fresh bread, and whipping up a favorite cheesecake – all gestures of goodwill, right?

The drama boils over, with accusations of overstepping boundaries, and even criticism for maintaining eye contact! As the dust settles, our culinary student stands his ground, believing in his upbringing and the value of hospitality. Will the roommate move out? Will the girlfriend stay?
