Plans

Since my father and brother are going away camping this weekend and I don't work today (yay!) I've decided to cook Indian for my mother, fiancee and I. Nothing really complex, just butter chicken out of a pack and rice. It's really about time I try the stuff though since one of my friends seems to love it and I can't remember ever trying it... although I might have once after a SCA training. Pretty sure that's what the baron was eating at least... aaaaanyway. It sounds good so all should go well!

I'll update this space later with pictures of the finished product and my final verdict!

So what else should I do since I wont have people bursting in all weekend? Well I have a 11-7 so I might make bento (since I have noodles and the cutest jellies now!) I also have to start a piece of art that's been commissioned, but that means not being lazy and actually going into town and buying a canvas which I can't really do until after the next payday anyways since I plan to get one for the commission and one for a project I'm doing for myself... thankfully he hasn't specified a deadline!!

Hmm in other news I'm thinking of making a blog about the food I make and reviewing bits and pieces for cooking and places I've eaten.

See you Monday!

Just because the packet says microwavable...doesn't mean you should

I have a new favourite snack! It's:

a. cheap

b. easy

c. super tasty

Prawn tubes are just awesome... however just because you can supposedly microwave them doesn't mean you actually SHOULD.

I decided to TRY and be healthy on my first attempt and adventure into this colourful fishy world, and it was simply epic fail.

~First attempt~

The packet suggested 30 seconds on high and if that didn't puff them up to adjust... this is what I got. Soo...

~Second Attempt~

Another 30 seconds...made half cooked/burnt half raw unpuffed tubes of god awfulness...

~Third Attempt~

_(deepfried)

SUCCESS!!

They're so cute and colourful and yummy...

Another one of my favourite snacks is the pandaroo jelly cups. They come in sets of six with the flavours Mango, Strawberry, Lychee, Papaya, Kiwi and Honeydew. Inside the jelly is a small cube of coconut gel and they are 100% vegetarian.

Anyway that's it for today ^^;; enjoying a day off being lazy and eating yummy food! Byes!
