You Forgot To Mention, Top Gun, I Ain't Glass

Okay. I've now been cooking for two and a half hours. @_@ Well, "cooking" isn't exactly the right word. And that isn't all I've done all morning.

Bwahaha @ the 'narcissism' tag! When were these pics taken? They're gorgeous! You're quite photogenic, which I feel like I am not ~_ ( ... )

One of them was taken about a year ago in Florida, and the other around...two years ago in my apartment in Irvine. *I* always feel that I look prettier in my pictures than I do in real life, but EVERYONE else feels the opposite. I guess maybe I should say that I think I look prettier in pictures than I do in the mirror ( ... )

I hate mirrors!!! They lie. It's like a scale - one will tell you one thing, and the next will tell you another.

I don't mind non-measurements, I just like an idea. I'm pretty flexible in recipes in terms of substitutions and stuff, so I try to also be okay with not knowing the exact amount of something. I just really don't know what tastes good herb-wise, or how much is good (a pinch vs a tbsp, etc.) But thanks! I'm not sure if we have corriander, but I think we have everything else :D
And thanks for the miso tip - yet another thing I just don't think of!

I'm just careless in the kitchen, or impatient, or I stick my hands in a hot pan to touch food, move it, or otherwise put my hand in an unsafe and precarious situation >_<

I know. They're only good for telling you if your outfit matches or if your hair is falling in the way it's supposed to. Other than that, give you a vague idea of what you look like. Because I can look fine in the mirror, take a picture and go: ohmygod no, I don't look that UGLY. D= Or vice versa ( ... )
