Confessional Shed - I'll keep a look-out

[The Sleeping Tyrant]

I just ate a bowl of banana nut clusters, 2 bowls of Cheerios and 3 of Muselix. It's 6:30PM in my time zone.

I don't eat that much in a day.

The time is reasonable though, that's just dinner.

[aldimond]

Naw, that was pre-dinner. For dinner I'm having a nice plate of Spaghetti 2 and an orange.

[The Sleeping Tyrant]

Naw, that was pre-dinner.

And that is when it hits the level of addiction.

Also, how is Mueslix?

[thefiddler]

Aldimond, you eat way too much. Christ, that's like two or three days' worth of food for me.

Although with my appetite these past few days, that could probably go a week or two.

[lanicita]

Speaking of cereal, I'm definitely eating Corn Pops from the box right now. Go figure.

[aldimond]

Naw, that was pre-dinner.

Also, how is Mueslix?

Well I didn't exactly eat Muselix, I ate a Trader Joe's "Museli blend cereal". I think it's basically the same thing; if so, it's delicious... little rice puffs, rolled oats and little rolled wheat flakes, corn flakes, dried fruit, almonds... if you've ever had Uncle Sam cereal, the wheat flakes are like that, really flavorful. Good stuff.

@thefiddler: I run a lot. I need the energy.

[thefiddler]

Confession: I've lost eight-ish lbs this week because I haven't been able to eat much, and it both depresses me (the manner of loss) and makes me happy (the weight).

Confession: I'm listening to Cute Is What We Aim For and I'm not ashamed of it.

"Spaghetti 2: Linguine's Revenge"

For dinner sometime last week, I mixed everything left in the cupboard: A handful of Chinese noodles, a can of Dinty Moore beef stew, 2 eggs, and a handful of grated cheese. Keep in mind this was a one-pot meal. Ahhh homemade Bachelor Chow.

Confession: I would buy (and eat) bachelor chow.

[thefiddler]

Confession: I would buy (and eat) bachelor chow.

Confession: I can cook better than you! And I would totally make you some food (that is NOT Bachelor Chow in any way, shape, or form), but you're too far away.

Confession: I hate Italian food, but I love cooking Chicken Parmigiana and Baked Mostacolli. (That is misspelled, but I can never spell it correctly. )

[aldimond]

@Joe: How'd that turn out? I'm a bit skeptical about the eggs doing well in a stew, but what the hell do I know about cooking? (Yes, Spaghetti 2... strangest pasta I've yet found)

@thefiddler: hating Italian food but liking to cook it reminds me of when I make curry. I love good curry dishes, I make horrible curry dishes; every time I make it I have more fun cooking it and it tastes worse.

I thought that was called "Instant Ramen".

Aww, you're missing out so much. My mum's parents are Italian immigrants to Scotland (when they were very small), and so she can cook AMAZING Italian food, and is currently passing on her skills to me. I love cooking, and it doesn't come better than homemade pizza, or my current favourite: making up a pasta sauce from whatever delicious things I can find. Actually, cooking huge 5 course meals is better than that, but I don't get the chance to do that more than a few times a year...

No no no, Ramen is available to both genders. Otherwise I'd starve... I can't cook either. I burn scrambled eggs, undercook pasta. I've left water boiling and forgotten about it at least three times, ruining two pots in the process. I trust myself to cook grilled cheese, egg beaters (strangely I can do those but not regular eggs), and Nestle chocolate chip cookies (which I'm really good at). I could live off the three of those and my Ramen though, so it's okay.

Confession: If I had to choose two foods to live on for the rest of my life, I'd choose cheese and raisins.

[Toeofdoom]

Since we're all about cooking now, I mainly cook indian style curries, and sometimes pasta sauces. Whether its from a paste or raw ingredients depends how much time i have. Tastes good either way.

Confession: Whenever i want to piss off my friends, I simply explain to them how hats are the second most useful things in the universe, after towels. I have alot of supporting arguments.

[Aoeniac]

My favorite food is, strangely, a mixture of the stereotypical foods of my mixed heritage.


It's seafood pasta!

the hell? how long does something have to boil for to ruin a pot?

anyway, i cook roasts, sausages, similar meaty things, couscous, rice, pasta, fried breakfasts, and i'm working on making my own bread. its a bit stodgy at this point, but im improving...

I guess until it melts?

Confession: I would try learning to cook, but I'm afraid of giving those who would dare feed on the product food poisoning.

Maybe two hours? Basically, the water evaporates and the pot pretty much burns. It doesn't actually catch fire (or at least it never has for me) but the pot gets all blackened.

Interesting, could someone say what causes this?

Me and cooking:
string comupter = "kitchen" ;

I am just too scared I'm going to royally fudge my computer. I've heard too many horror stories. Plus, it just doesn't do anything for me.

Except eggs, pancakes,...

Confession: this is leadgolem's first post I have laughed at for a long time.

Confession: I am too honest to delete that now, even though it might come across a little harsh.

[Shizo]

Confession: When I get a package of M&M's, I separate them by color and play a "Risk"-like game with them. Orange usually wins since Orange rules.

[Lani]

Confession:
I'm currently eating Irish Cream cordials for breakfast. Soooo good, and yet sooo bad.

[Judas Maccabeus]

Confession: When I get a package of M&M's, I separate them by color and play a "Risk"-like game with them. Orange usually wins since Orange rules.

Confession: I always try to organize M&Ms in each handful as much as possible. First I eat any single colors, (then two if several colors have three), then organize what is left in rows by color. I will then eat one column at a time until each color is down to two, then go by color.

And M&Ms can be the least ritualized of my food.

[lanicita]

I separate mine by color too. It's a problem when I get a huge bag of them, because I have to eat a fifth of the bag in one sitting, since I can't just LEAVE half of the yellows behind.

Confession: my 1000th post will come in the middle of a triple-post

While I always keep track of what colours i'm eating I don't obey to any specific pattern for too long...

Bahahaha.

[hermaj]

Confession: I usually only eat the brown M&Ms. I did this before I saw The Wedding Planner.

Confession: I (half) caught the bouquet at the wedding. I am actually expecting that someone/something nice will happen to me, and while I hate superstition I will still be very bummed out when nothing ends up happening. It is like being torn! I know it won't, but I'll still be almost bitterly disappointed when it doesn't.


Also, cuddles for ivnja. Things like that are sucky.

[khayber]

I've left water boiling and forgotten about it at least three times, ruining two pots in the process.

Once I was boiling some sugar water for a hummingbird feeder and forgot about it. The smoke was unbelievable. I couldn't stay in the room more than a few seconds. It took at least 3 trips to get the window open, the pot off the stove and into the sink under running water. It took 2 days for the smell to fade. The pot looked like something from a sci-fi horror movie. The sugar had boiled and foamed over the sides and then blackened. I didn't even try to save that pot.

I also left a clothes iron on for 5 days once. It was in my spare bedroom and I rarely go in there. I finally noticed because the lights would dim every few minutes and it was annoying.

are you fucking nuts? what is wrong with you?

[Aoeniac]

I hate chocolate so I don't eat M&M's anyway.


But if I did, I would probably just rip a hole in the package and pop them out one by one into my mouth. Color coordination can go to hell.
