I had friends over for the (miserable) PSU vs. Ohio State game yesterday and we had a pretty good spread. I made vegetarian pumpkin chili (a friend brought a regular meat version, as well as pulled...
I can't seem to make brown rice in a rice cooker.
So I bake it. It's Alton Brown's method. Preheat the oven to 350 and spray a small baking dish. Bring the water to a boil (same propo...
Sometimes when I'm making Mexican dishes, I'll add some chopped up onion, cumin, chile powder and cinnamon. Even better if it's cooked in chicken broth.
I'm recovering from tonsilitis, but I did roast a butternut squash earlier. I was thinking about putting together some squash enchiladas. I also wanted to get some bread into the oven, probably Pas...
I have a floor that attracts dirt like no other, and I still don't sweep/mop as much as I should. Now I probably sweep at least 3 times a week, and mop about every week and a half (though just with...
I make a delicious chicken dish that's essentially a chicken breast, topped with a mixture of chopped artichokes, black olives, mayo/sour cream (depending on what I have) and parmasan cheese, then ...
Paula Deen's chicken noodle soup, minus the heavy cream. (Because why does chicken noodle soup need heavy cream?)
I should make other stuff for the week, but we spent all day yesterday...
Shrimp scampi (if I'm feeling generous) or lasagna (if I'm feeling cheap). I like to make other things, but pasta is the only meal I'm guaranteed will turn out right.
We had friends over for the (painful to watch) PSU vs. Iowa game last night. We took advantage of some nice weather and grill chicken, zucchinis and peppers, and I made buffalo chicken dip.
...
When I go back to AZ, I always bring home a bottle of High Spirits Prickley Pear vodkda, distilled in Flagstaff.
I should probably think more about actual food, though...
Dishwasher, garbage disposal. My aparment now has the former, not the latter. But it has enough space (both counter and living) to make up for the lack of a garbage disposal.
"TV rots your brain and stifles your imagination in large doses, i.e., an hour every day or more is too much."
Eh, as a designer, I use my imagination in overwhelming amounts at work. ...
I wish they had something like this in my area. I just don't have the money to pay for a CSA upfront, even though I know it saves a lot in the long run.
I picked up some sesame oil this morning and began making peanut sesame noodles only to discover that my peanut-butter-aholic boyfriend ate all the peanut butter. So he's going to get some.
...
I have too many horrid memories of a childhood spent romping through stinging nettles in England and then suffering the consequences after. I can't imagine willingly putting them in my mouth.
I dislike egg yolks, so the only way I'll eat them is if it's all scrambled together.
Sometimes I fry an egg white and eat it as a sandwich...that's yummy, too!

Just another reason why I want to cry about being stuck in Maryland instead of my hometown of Phoenix.

Beans in all forms except for green. (I can eat green beans. They're not really the same.) They're so healthy, yet so inedible.
