So today was a personal triumph in that my cooking level has gone from master defroster to novice cook. I feel as a spry as newly evolved pokemon. A Dragonair perhaps. Or a Nidorino.
As Laura knows very well from The Cookie Caper, my attempts at "from scratch" usually have intereresting outcomes. She being my resident cooking goddess, was privy to hearing me refer to meat or ground beef as "Meef". She had to clarify what browning the meat was too me. Like a child, I almost giggled with delight seeing the pinky lump instantly turn brown. Some whole grain shells, lean ground beef, pizza sauce, mozz/parm cheese, garlic powder, feta cheese, three pinches of curry and a heaping of confusion resulted in a very delicious though slightly dry surprise dinner on a whim for a certain someone. That's my bragging point for the day.
