Owowowowow!

Still figuring out this cooking, thing, but I'm learning to do spaghetti (yes, it's boiling water, but I have this weird phobia about cooking. Gives me panic attacks, so I'm taking things slow.)

Everything was fine until it came time to drain the pasta.. dumping into the strainer, some of the water splashed up and hit my fingers. Sonofabitch! Stood with my fingers in ice for a little bit. No blisters, just a little redness.

The spaghetti (or as like to call it, piles of parmesan cheese with occasional strands of pasta) was good.

Pointless update finished.

Remind me to send you a copy of the 4-Ingredient Cookbook. *No* dish has more than four ingredients. It's pretty cool and easy as anything to use. :-)

[livejournal.com profile] dafydd got a copy of A Man, A Can, A Plan for Xmas last year as a gag gift - which makes it a little embarrassing to admit I had been thinking about getting it for [livejournal.com profile] gridlore as a serious present....

It actually sounds good, and if you do get it, it will mean that I will know what I'm getting

OOO! Want!

Is it a print book or something on the web? If it's print, the ISBN ought to do.

AOL!
Be a nice companion for my 5 in 10 Dessert Cookbook -- five ingredients, 10 minutes -- though some of them cheat a bit, like using the result of one recipe as an ingredient in another, and not counting the chilling time, just the prep time. But still a good one.

It's a print book and it's actually the combination of three books in one. The ISBN is: 0962855030. Just to give you an idea:

1) 4 large potatoes, peeled and sliced
2) 1 pound lean ground beef, browned and drained
3) Green peppers, sliced
4) 1 (28 oz) can tomatoes, chopped (or you could use a can of chopped tomatoes!)

Layer above ingredients in order given. Bake at 350 degree for 45 minutes.

It's not bad at all.
