food, glorious food - the same evening

Frozen blackberries, applesauce and a little milk.
Pretty tasty.

And filling.

food, glorious food

Well, since I am going home for the summer (by the way, I'm going home for the summer. woo!) I have decided to make a concerted effort to eat my food storage I have here.

Don't be too impressed - it consists mostly of green beans (yum!) and some other random canned goods, lots of spices from the week where I was going to cook a full meal every night, dried beans, flour, sugar and brown sugar.

Here's my meal that I created last night, that I enjoyed so much I recreated again tonight.

[First, please notice the awesome skillet I received for Christmas! I love it muchly.]

Okay, admittedly, it looks a bit gross. But it is tasty. It is one can of green beans, eight potstickers from across the street, some water, and the brown thing in the middle is a chicken bouillon cube for extra flavor. I put the green beans in first, to let them warm up, added water (unfortunately not quite enough....) and the potstickers. I use a fancy lid made of tin foil, and let sit for about 8 minutes, till the 'stickers get soft. Then, remove the fancy lid to brown the potstickers.

Place them on some stylish Party ware, and enjoy.

Unfortunately I didn't get a picture of last night's - last night's were a trifle less browned, but nevertheless, still tasty.

And yes, I ate the entire skillet full. And I think I'm still hungry. hmm.... I have lots of things in the freezer I need to eat through, too....

close encounters of the ranting kind

You're lucky I just ate some cereal (wheat chex with brown sugar...mmmm.....) between uploading this picture and finishing the post - and let my train of thought get derailed.

This was going to be a rant about educational standards and how some people get lost in all the rules and stuff. and stuff.

But all my frustrations went to the back burner again with that brown sugary goodness.

Maybe the ranting fingers will be back, maybe they won't.
