Mr Crow and I have moved apartments. This one is up on the third floor and makes me feel like I live in a tree house. Hooray for sunlight! We’ve got the place almost entirely together and it feels like home already. . . mainly because it’s a lot like our previous home. . . . but it’s got a better lay out, it’s sunnier, and it has an “extra” room.
Needless to say, I haven’t been doing a lot of cooking lately, but I did manage to snap a couple photos of a couple things. First up is a little cabbage-tofu stirfry from The student’s Vegetarian Cookbook. I have an older version of this little guy so if my recipe isn’t in here, I’m sorry. But, cheer up, here’s a picture:
Then it was my birthday and Mr. Mc. and I baked brownies! YUM! I can’t remember where we found the recipe. . . mainly because we combined about 3 to make them along with our own special flair in the kitchen so all you get is a picture today. Ah, well.
Yesterday, my mom came to visit bringing with her birthday/graduation presents from my family. SHE BROUGHT ME SOMETHING SO COOL!!! They’re these little spice grinders full of sugar and herbs and things in 7 different flavors for the 7 deadly sins! HAH! I love it. check it out:
Today, things are back to (relatively) normal. We went grocery shopping yesterday and i had a coupon for Nayonaise. So, i bought a little jar and made some dressing. I bet you can’t guess what kind. Here, I’ll give you a hint:
So, I checked out this recipe and read the comments, then I went here to look at a “real” recipe for homemade ranch dressing for reference and this is what I came up with:
one small jar (14oz) Nayonaise
1t garlic powder
1t onion powder
1t dry parsley
.5t black pepper
.5t dill
about .25 - .5t oregano
and .25 - .5t smoked paprika
Whisk. Pour on everything.
