not dead yet

… though my thesis, my semester, and other various and sundry events occasionally conspire to try.

We’re still here and still cooking away, though I haven’t been posting. Most of it has been the same meals we eat a lot of already: tacos, homemade pizza, tofu teriyaki, salad and roasted potatoes, chili, pasta. There hasn’t been anything terribly interesting in the last month, because I haven’t had the brain cycles for it.

However, we have fixed a couple of things that stand out as having been very tasty:

- pizza topped with potatoes and country ham. It sounds odd - potatoes on top of bread, more or less? - but it turned out to be very tasty. We used less cheese, too, because the potatoes provided a lot of bulk. Very tasty, indeed.
- barbecue beef sandwiches: Cook stew beef on low in the crock pot for 8 hours or on high for 4 to 5. Shred the meat with a fork and knife, either right in the pot or on a cutting board. Add in enough barbeque sauce to cover, and cook for another 30 minutes to an hour, long enough to heat the sauce through. Serve on hamburger buns with a bit of sharp cheddar. Good stuffs.

So. I just wanted to post that I’m still here and I’m going to try to get back into the habit of posting, though when school starts getting crazy, blogging (and the internet in general) is the first thing to go. (Luckily, cooking is not.)

    You’re really sweet. :) I can’t guarantee I’ll be anymore entertaining until the end of the year, but we’ll try. :)
