...and we're back


the nine hundred and twenty-four day silence is over. crazy how fast time has flown. it's seems like just yesterday i was calling my family to the table to see if my tuesday night cooking adventure was a success. now most tuesday nights i find myself eating on the go, over my textbooks, or my roomate's floor. while the 'atmosphere' may have compromised the cooking adventures have not. (CONFESSION: i may or may not of made mac'n'cheese from the box last week...it was for the first time since i've moved out so that counts for something, right?) but back to those cooking adventures. i've learned some valuable lessons like while cooking and freezing may work for some foods, it is not the answer for all foods. (don't freeze quiche) or be very careful in trying new recipes, because if they're a flop your stuck eating it for the rest of the week because throwing food out in college is not an option, and i most likely will not be able to eat a whole bag of potatoes before they go bad. somewhere between all of these 'adventures' i missed recording them. but tonight i decided no longer, so here's to breaking the nine hundred and twenty-four days of silence.
