#Foodsperiments : Mini #Pizza #Pies totally just happened and it was #awesome #cooking #recipe

Okay this one was one of the tastier things I’ve made.  I don’t understand why it turned out so good since I was winging it the entire time, but I don’t think I would change a damn thing next time around which is weird for me.  Usually it takes me a few trials and many errors to decide I’m happy with a recipe. I’m home alone this week, my parent’s vacation being another kind of vacation to me as…

Foodsperiment: Strawberry Bread Using up a bunch of #fresh #strawberries in a #delicious way

I have a giant box of strawberries in the fridge and the knowledge that if I do not do something with them tonight, my mother will give them away tomorrow before she and Dad go on vacation because when staying here alone, apparently I do not rate strawberries. So?  So I shall make them into a thing!!!  After consulting Twitter, I have decided to make these bread things!!!!  Then I’ll get to enjoy…

Foodsperiment: This can't be healthy. #comfortfood #toofull #cooking #recipe #foodsperiment

So, another evening alone in the house with the dogs.  Another opportunity to create something deadly!!! Today’s attempt began with ten minutes staring into the fridge, followed by a flurry of random ingredient spew onto the counter.  After a little editing I determined my plan. I started with some chopped onions, mushrooms, cheddar cheese, accidentally purchased chili with no beans, chicken…

An easy, gentle upset tummy remedy for dogs(and weird humans) #homeremedy #dogtreats #recipe

I love my dogs unconditionally and I love my Korra to bits, but I do not love how every so often she will sneakily steal some bit of food or randomness to eat that leads to a long night of her waking me with her “WAKE UP I HAVE TO GO POTTY!!!” Howl every hour or so while the smell of her rancid farts work their way up through the mattress to me from her under-bed den.  I’ve learned a few things…

Toast cheezy avocado tomato egg thingy. Trial and Error cooking! #breakfast #recipe #nonsense

So…Groceries have been bought!  And as always, with the influx of fresh ingredients I got the urge to cook. When no one was looking I went to work.  My inspiration?  Avocados.  Fresh Avocados. Yum. So I threw together some toast, sliced colby jack because it was handy, sliced up some avocado delishness and some fresh tomato slices and then found myself wanting more. So I attempted to toss some…

Today I made a Quiche

Today I made a Quiche. After Mom left for work with Coffee and a bagel,I looked for a recipe to base my attempt on.  I had a very basic idea of what was involved.  I had tried and failed to pull off a quiche before.  It always came out with the wrong consistency and discouraged me from continuing to try.  But I had some time and I wanted to make a quiche, dammit. I ended up pulling up Alton…

I never learned to cook.  My mother never bothered to teach me and her mother could kill you with toast. So I always assumed that I couldn’t cook.  At some point between age 8 and 12 my mother decided that she didn’t want to cook for us anymore unless it was a special occasion (dear lord, can that woman make pie.  Sweet amazing Pie of the Gods).  Dad would cook for us when he was home which was…
