Blog material has been accumulating since my last post.
Who's ready to have a motherload dropped on them all at once?!?!
So after my last post, I came down with a double whammy of sickness--first was a nasty cold/bronchitis/something that ain't nobody got time for (I lost my voice and everything. The cough is still kind of lingering). And then, as soon as I was beginning to recover, BAM. Double pink eye.
However, there have been times where I was actually pretty healthy and in the mood to cook.
And oh man. Have I been cooking.
First and foremost, I was in charge of hosting a joint birthday party for my mom and Aunt Brenda, and I decided to go ahead and use this opportunity to double as my scholarship project for the Art Institute. Much to everyone's dismay, however, my mom came down with pink eye right after I recovered, and one of the twins got sick. But since it was still a special day (and I had literally spent the entire previous day making all kinds of tasties), I went ahead and made some special, delicious food.
With pictures included (and cropped, mind you!), my essay came out to ten pages. I could fill six or seven blog posts with my material. However, I'll just give it all a nice, shiny gloss over in a single (albeit likely to be very long) post.
Secondly, I made a really cute Valentine's Day special with all kinds of positively adorable love-themed cookies! So that'll be another post for all you sweet-toothed Spartans out there (looking at you, Emile. I feel like you're a hand-in-the-cookie-jar kinda man).
There was also a post I made with super hearty Power-Up Soup: a nutrient-dense soup for those days when being sick will just knock you down and keep you there. Fortunately, it's also pretty easy to make, and with interchangeable ingredients, you could quickly whip it up for yourself on a sick day!
I'm also considering doing a short post on my attempt at a simple curry recipe because CURRY IS LIFE. A good friend of mine's mom has a curry recipe that is literal nectar of the gods, and SHE SHARED IT! However, I didn't have the stuff to make it, and figured, "Why not try my hand at a a po' boy version?"
And finally, this morning I made breakfast for everyone (which seems to be a recurring theme on a lot of my weekends because who doesn't love surprising everyone with breakfast?), and wanted to highlight the breakfast burrito that is the literal stuff of your dreams HAHAHA GET IT BECAUSE BURRITOS ARE STUFFED WITH INGREDIENTS AND no? Okay.
Well, we've got of Grade A Spartan edibles to talk about, so please... be my guest.
...Did I tell you guys I landed the role of the Madame de la Grande Bouche in my school's production of Beauty and the Beast?
Guess you'll have to check out the next few posts to learn more about it!
ECHO out.
