Every once in a while, I'm left home alone, due to some school exam which I have to study for over the weekend. Of course, the percentage of this time which I actually spend studying is quite small, due to distractions (ie the computer, the internet and therefore food blogs =]) and the fact that school work is so.....so......boring!Yes. I hate studying. Which is why, you'll usually find me doing the randomest things on the weekends.....you know, to make life, not-so-boring. When I was studying for my chemistry exam, I decided to peel and orange and make a rose out of it (it was heaps fun!). Then there was a time, when I decided to try my hand at pulled noodles-the ones which you cut the dough into strips and then pull them into long strands- and which actually worked! (unfortunately, I don't have a good picture of the noodles)
This weekend, my sister was home with me, so I had to make something to feed the two of us. Since there were no left overs in the fridge, and I actually had homework which I needed to do, I made creamy mushroom spaghetti-using a can of condensed cream of mushroom sauce, of course! It was so so easy- all I did was empty the can of soup in a pot, as some milk, some water turn on the heat, chuck in some cooked spaghetti and taa-daa! Not only does it look great (well to me it does.....) it tastes great too- my sister loved it! 
Food blogs didn't exist yet when I was in high school but I imagine that if they did, I wouldn't have gotten any hw done either.
ReplyDeleteI second Jessica's comment. If only I had known about the world of internet food! I spent many an afternoon when I should have been studying trying to make bread (unsuccessfully I might add). My family would always try to eat it, and tell me it was "good" which was really confusing because it was gross to me. Anyways, keep up the good work! Being able to cook is an awesome skill to have!
ReplyDeleteHi Jessica! haha....not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing...=]
ReplyDeleteHi Jess! Awww.....bread making is so fun!
