"Eating shouldn't be unaffordable"

My first cake in my new oven is baking!!! This oven is very different than any other oven I've ever used. It has no bottom element and it has a fan. And, the cake cooked 5 minutes faster than usual. Definitely, different... It looks good and smells great so I'm very hopeful and excited to try it!! I made a carrot cake and I'm going to frost it with cream cheese frosting. I am just making a sheet cake this time because it's easier, and I love the cake to frosting ratio of a sheet cake. I'll bake a tiered cake next time I bake a cake. If this cake comes out right, I'm going to try cream puffs, next!! I love cream puffs!! 😋❤️🥕🎂🍰🙏🏼I can't wait until it cools to see if it's good so I'm going to go steal a corner of the cake. I'll be right back.... oh, my, my!!! That cake is so moist, light, and airy!! It's delicious 😋 😍 It's official... I love my new oven!!! ❤️❤️ I need another piece of that cake... time to make some frosting!!! 😁🤗🤣😋🥕🍰❤️

The oven thermometer said it was off by 50°, but the cake came out very well so I'm fine with that!!!

It's cooling, now. It looks so lonely... it needs some frosting so I'll be right back with a photo of my frosted cake... not gonna lie... I might have to eat a piece first, though😁🤣🤭😋😍🥕🍰 quality control is very important to me... so is cake!! 🥕🍰😋🤣 so I'll make the sacrifice and try a piece... it's a tough job, but someone has to do it... Petey just volunteered... 🤣🐕🤣

I've been in my new house, officially, for a week, and I, finally, used my stove!!! I had been so excited to be able to order a pizza that I had two pizzas in the past week!! I, usually, eat very healthy so this was a one time thing. I justified it by saying I was too busy unpacking to cook. 😆🤣🤣 Whatever works, right? 😉😁🤣 I have never cooked on a glass cook top. It was different, but it worked very well. I made myself a huge shrimp cocktail. I made cocktail sauce with ketchup, horseradish, and lime juice. It was delicious. Petey enjoyed it, too!! It was simple and easy and tasty so.... it was a no brainer...

I made stuffed peppers cooked in a vegetable marinara sauce with seasoned parmesan reggiano tuiles!! I never made tuiles before, but I'm making them with everything from now on!! They're delicious and so easy to make!! And they add an artistic kinda flair to the plate, dontcha think?

I stuffed the peppers with a mixture of chopped meat, brown rice, sautéed onions,mushrooms, green peppers, and minced garlic. I seasoned that with garlic powder, basil, oregano, salt and pepper. I then combined the mixture with some tomato paste and some of the vegetable marinara sauce. I topped them with panko bread crumbs mixed with parmesan reggiano, basil, oregano, garlic, salt and pepper. I believe in seasoning every component of a dish to make sure everything tastes great on its own so when you combine it, it tastes phenomenal!! It worked very well this time!!
