But I wasn't.

That's the extent of excitement available here.

I also cook when I get bored.  Yesterday I did pizza ingredients.  The Arab flat bread makes a great crust and if you can find well-aged mozarella (not that white crap at Panda) then you can have exceptionally deeelish pizzas at home.  I take ground chicken, brown it with Italian seasoning, make sauce and put all in the fridge until ready for a taste of "round food".

I just cant remember the last time I held a ladle in the kitchen. I guess I am way past that era now?

I made a big pot of spaghetti and meat sauce yesterday, in fact!

Funny, the first 3 months I was here, I loved not cooking.  But recently I went out and bought a large 'dutch oven' so that I can make some of my favorites:  spaghetti, stewed chicken and dumplings, chicken soup, Lousiana style chile con carne.  I'll eat it for two nights and then freeze the rest, same as I used to do at home.

Thanks for the pizza idea, Mr. Stretch :-)

Why dont you share some of your home made delllliccchiious food :D

yumm Yummm Alliecat, mouthwatering :D

You know, Saqib, most of the fun of cooking is cooking for other people.  I miss that here.

allicat......would definately want some frozen chilli con carne louisana style that i can heat up.....

Heard so much about it that i have always wanted to try it

send some over pls lol

Allicat.. It is all different here.. Just cook the cakes.. I' ll arrange the delivery and we can send back pictures how we taste.. sure we will criticize and rating will be announced. May be this may customized and other ladies can join to that happening :)

That aticus is verrrrrrrrrrry sly!  Now he has figured out a way to get the ladies of the forum to provide him with home cooking!  lol

PS.  I don't make bake/make cakes.  You'll have to somehow trick Sully into doing that :lol:

PPS. aticus, have you read Dirty Little Secrets lately? :lol:
