9/6 I Love to Cook!

Although I failed at keeping up with this blog, I will be back for another attempt.

I live in a program house at my school, which some may compare to a co-op (although I really have no idea how co-ops work). It's just a bunch of sophomores and juniors who live in a house together because they share some common interest. Our interest is cooking. We have weekly house dinners/brunches together (all 16 of us) and have a fabulous time. We also have an enormous kitchen, which is helpful when 10 people are cooking at the same time.

I have so far succeeded in my goal of photographing everything [my friends and] I cook this semester, so I will document it all here. Most deliciousness is made with experimentation and a little bit of recipe, but I will document recipes when it seems fit.

My photos are not the most beautiful due to my sad, automatic camera, but they are just oh-so-delicious.

1/15 Some Delicious Foods Make Me Melt

When I went to Montreal and ate crepes, I melted. When I had a not-so-great day and had been craving a milkshake for a week, my friend (who has a car) drove me to the diner down the street and I ate (drank?) an amazing vanilla milkshake, I melted. That day, we also went to the grocery store and found Build-Your-Own-Dino Gummies (to add to the wonderful-ness).

Melting consists of closing my eyes, smiling, and sinking far into my seat. This works best in booths. It is most fun when others join me. Some food is just too delicious to not have this reaction.

If my camera wasn't dead right now, I would include a picture of my Totoro mittens in-progress. Instead, I bring you amazing-amazing-amazing (triple is necessary) Montreal. The light display at the Botanical Gardens was beautiful. In the back left, you can see a bit of Olympic Park, which was built for the 1976 Olympics.
