Man, I asked my dad if he'd like me to make something nice for him for Father's Day / his birthday, a cake or pie or something now that I've been doing all this cooking from scratch. He was all for it, but Mom said she'd already bought a box mix and can of frosting ( Read more... )

My kitchen is absolutely covered in chocolate. If these cookies taste as good as they smell they're going to be amaaaaaaazing.

You wouldn't think nearly a week could go so quickly...but it did!! I had a lovely time visiting with Twig, Luny, Flidget and Aphe. I wish I could have spent longer and had more one on one time with everyone ( Read more... )

This whole urge to actually cook and not just, like, eat a stick of ( Read more... )

So I'm still playing around with the DS cooking games.  I decided that since I was likely to be snowed in over the weekend I got all kinds of things to cook over the weekend.  ( So far the results are )

So the other day I was talking to a coworker about how cool the Personal Trainer: Cooking "game" was for the DS. Then I tried to find it to show it to him, but...I'm not so good at keeping the game with the box, and...the games are like, postage stamps. Luckily a used copy is only $8. And while I was there I picked up the sequel "America ( Read more... )
