Onyx Posted January 10, 2007 Posted January 10, 2007 I hate setting timers. Stuff is never done when it's supposed to be. I don't get up to check on baked things until the kitchen starts smelling good. When I think it might be getting done and I smell it cooking I get up and check, then I set the timer for however long it looks like it will take. I'm making a red velvet cake, which I really don't need, but I'm really really in the mood for.
Head Wreck Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 i love setting timers. especially the ones that are clockwork ringing types, especially when theres a shelf full of them in a dept store, wind them all up quickly or as many as you can allowing ime to stand back and watch the entertainment comence. do they sell these in supermarkets over there, i goto do something next year that tops the cedar ball incident
Rayne Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 I made a spice cake with buttercream frosting today.
Msterbeau Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 I made a spice cake with buttercream frosting today. How YOU doin? I'm a lazy cook and even lazier food shopper. One of these days I'm going to hunker down and eat real meals with real veggies and real ingredients and spend time making proper meals... and enjoy it. That time is not now...
Onyx Posted January 11, 2007 Author Posted January 11, 2007 We really should have another DGN picnic sometime. The food and the company was good! We have some great cooks here. This summer sometime? HeadWreck - sounds like there's a story behind that post. Cedar ball incident???

One of these days I'm going to hunker down and eat real meals with real veggies and real ingredients and spend time making proper meals... and enjoy it. That time is not now... I'm doing good ... and have PLENTY of cake left. I didn't even touch it until today. I've always believed I can't cook. Phee tells me otherwise. ... Maybe it's because he's used to eating sand ... so he just THINKS my food tastes decent ... I can BAKE, I've never disputed that.
pomba gira Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 I made tom kha gai yesterday & it turned out really yummy... Meijer was out of enoki mushrooms so I used oyster 'shrooms, wasn't sure if it would work but if anything they intensified the flavor. I got a really creamy can of coconut milk so that may have had something to do with it, too. to be perfectly honest I don't do a lot of cooking at this point in my life... but I never understand why people act like it's so hard to cook decent food. The beauty of cooking is it can be as simple or as complicated as you want, and some of the simplest stuff is really impressive... doesn't get much easier than something like salmon & grits but it's delicious, filling, cheap & even "healthy". good food is right up there with good sex for me... mmmmm
SpidersMoment Posted January 13, 2007 Posted January 13, 2007 i want an EZ Bake oven. So i can just sit here and make myself little cakes. Now thats lazy. But i love it
Head Wreck Posted January 13, 2007 Posted January 13, 2007 onyx, ask rayne and phee about the cedar ball incident next time you see them

I'm making a red velvet cake, which I really don't need, but I'm really really in the mood for. about a week... no 2 weeks ago I made one of those, and i put it in a bunt pan and made a bunt Red velvet cake with cream cheese frosting, and i labeled it "Klingon blood cake" those crazy Klingon's and their blood cakes...
