This weekend, I cooked, baked and boiled. From basic ingredients (and what I happened to have in my fridge), I made chicken and stars, brownies, pasta with grapes and goat cheese, chocolate-stuffed rolls, and a pizza where I woke up with only the ingredients to make the dough and several inches of snow on the ground. TCB and I walked down to CVS and Dollar General and got some string cheese, spaghetti sauce mix, ham and pineapple, and mixed up the sauce mix with tomato soup, since I didn't read the instructions and get tomato paste. That pizza was so good, and I have sauce leftover. I'm totally cooking that again. Tomorrow.
And then this morning, i find Cooking For Engineers, with useful diagrams on how to prepare the food, plus instructions on what to do with the ingredients. Can't wait to start cooking!
