just have to squeeze in one more ball joke. ...*snerk*

Okay, so. I'm not a cook. The first 20 years of my life, my dad cooked 90% of the meals, and my mom cooked the other 10% (sheeeee was not very good at it. She is actually worse than me; you know how some people are genetically icapable of curling their tongue? She doesn't have a chef gene.)

But the thing is, every time Mom or I tried to cook, Dad

IT WAS SO GOOD, PENNY, SOOOO GOOOOOD.

Um. Blech. I'm not a big fan of fish in general, but jellied fish just. Just no.

EEE YOU SHOULD!! UM. How about that really good thing you made for me--actually they were all really good things. Either the chicken pot pie (or PIE as you so weirdly call it) or what was the thing with the sort of rice-sized noodles and the thing that looked like a cucumber which you shredded and then added stuff to? OR ANYTHING, REALLY, YOU'RE AN AMAZING CHEF :DD

YES, RISSOTTO! I wanted to call it Ricotta and i knew that wasn't right. *headdesk*

BB, WHATEVER. I would read a post about you making tea. :DD

I'm so thoroughly charmed by this post, you have no idea :D. I cook exactly like this... If it's something more complicated than throwing pasta into a pot I usually don't understand half of ingredients/ what they are supposed to look like/ buy the wrong stuff and I mix up what to do in what order, and it ends up taking forever and a day.
Which is why boyfriend always throws me out of the kitchen.

But HOMG, LOOK AT THE AWESOME SOUP YOU MADE!! Go you! ^^

When I was in Scotland I lived entirely on sandwiches and different kinds of pasta. RICE still baffles me. I don't understand how to cook it without a rice-maker. I'm told you just boil it, but that CAN'T BE RIGHT. Why would someone go to all the trouble of making a thing that specifically COOKS RICE if all it does is BOIL IT??

\O/

Ha, German solves this this conundrum by having the same word for 'cook' and 'boil'. ^^

Vidalia onions = native to the SE U.S. They're very mild, and sweet. ...and there's an old country song if you're wondering how to pronounce the word. Name. Onion. Whatever. (and by old, I mean mid-nineties, shut up.)

The Crazy Eyes when I opened my car door and called into it, "ARE THERE ANY SERIAL KILLERS IN HERE? I'M HEADED WEST, SO. IF THAT'S NOT WHERE YOU WANT TO GO, NOW WOULD BE A GOOD TIME TO HOP OUT." [...] Isn't this the cutest turnip you ever did see? *chinhands* I named it Ted. I also ripped off all of Ted's little eyes ... Ahahahahahaha, this made me laugh and spin in my chair. You cute little psychopath, you.

LOLOLOL HIS HAIR. I also love the way his guitar seems to be 99.9% ornamental. WHY DO YOU HAVE IT IF YOU AREN'T GOING TO PLAY, DUDE.

*dimples* ;D

Ahh, those good ole Milli Vanilli days... >_> Thank heavens they're gone.

RayK says to tell you that you're crazy. Certifiably nutso. Ready for a trip to the funny farm. Because not only do you eat the weirdest stuff, but you *document* it.

Fraser is responding about how it's important to document steps of an experiment, because it's easier to repeat results, since the human brain may not accurately ---

Ray just shot him a dirty look and stomped out of the room. Poor Benton looks confused.

Hehehe oh Klu this was so awesome, this amused me so darn much. You should totally have one of those random life commentary shows (or of course one of those random cooking shows).
Thank you for brightening my day :)

[queenklu]

Oh man, if I had a cooking show...I would get beat up by all the other cooking shows. They would make me their bitch, and then probably bake me into something, Hansel & Gretel style. *shudder*

If any of them needed a taste-tester, though, I totally volunteer! :D

eta: Like, to taste their FOOD, not myself baked into a pie. Obviously. o.O

[leodragon1]

I'm very impressed! This would be a great blog to show real cooks so they get how HARD IT IS. STOP MAKING IT SO COMPLICATED.

I'm terrified of cooking, and shopping for food is an exercise in agony. If I couldn't order pizza or eat in town before going home from work, I'd starve.

[queenklu]

THEY ALWAYS MAKE IT SEEM SO EASY, DON'T THEY. WITH THEIR VEGGIES ALL PRE-CHOPPED AND THEIR 'PRESTO FROM THE OVEN' BS. BS I SAY.

Lol I lived on pasta and sandwiches for pretty much nine months in Scotland. And TV DINNERS! They have the best indian food in a box :DD
