I've been ramen-free since August.

It kept the Japanese from starving after WWII.

It is so good to be out of grad school and be able to eat real food again.

Mike!

So, did you find your supplies??????

No, I think that they are at my Mom's house.

What's a super bowl? Is that like a really big soup and salad bar?

-Mike

I used to make a kickass amber back when it was fashionable to homebrew. I wonder where all my homebrew supplies have gone to.

How come nobody commented on my tuna steak recipe? You guys don't like yellowfin?

-Mike

I had some wasabi left over so I mixed it with soy sauce and used it for dipping. The tuna came out perfect.

In a larger bowl, put the tuna steak. Add soy sauce. Coat top of tuna with wasabi. Put larger bowl in refrigerator for an hour o...

Hunt them on someone else's farm.

-Mike

I don't like salads either. This evening I melted some swiss cheese over it on the griddle like a cheese burger.

-Mike

I have some ham in the refrigerator. I have eaten fried, cold, and in sandwiches with swiss cheese. Does anyone have any other suggestions for eating the ham?

-Mike

I make my chili in the crockpot. It cooks for four hours on low and one hour on high.

-Mike

When I serve the chili I cut it with rice. That reduces the heat a lot and makes the chili last longer. Fav, I live in a two-bedroom apartment, but my kitchen is pretty tiny.

-Mike

I keep a jar of habernero mash for cooking in the refrigerator. One 12-oz jar can last me years. I usually use four tablespoons (about the same as four habernero chilis) in 6lb of chili, and that makes mighty hot chili.

-Mike

I can't eat chili while classes are in session.

-Mike

When the hour was up, I put the meat thermometer in and it didn't budge. So I turned the oven up to 300 and set the timer for another thirty minutes. Am I ever going to get to eat? My stomach is growling.

-Mike

Ham. I bought a five-pound boneless ham at the supermarket and now I am cooking it for an hour at 275. Do you think that will come out right?

http://home.hiwaay.net/~mevinson/CarbCount.htm Apparently, a cup of string beans has about 6 carbs. If I could afford to eat steak and string beans 3 times a day, I'd be okay with that. :cool: String beans are cheap, 95 cents a pound at Walmart. Different cuts of steak cost different amounts. I lik...

Did you try string beans and steak? Steak is definitely okay, and string beans are better than bread, but I think they're still considered moderately high in carbs as far as vegetables go. :dunno: I find that as long as I limit my portion of string beans to a pound and a half not including the garl...

Isn't Cool Whip like made from a petroleum distallate? Can we use regular whipped cream?

Will you use real chinese?

None of the Chinese students in the orphanage had wings. They just had arms and legs like everyone else.

-Mike

I don't have a mixer or much counter space.

-Mike

I don't have a chocolate mousse recipe, but I love the stuff. I try to avoid eating sweets, though, as it makes me soft in the middle.

-Mike

I saw Emeril make chocolate mousse once. It looked to be beyond my capabilities.
