I really fucked up my legs trying to clean the bathtub earlier this morning, also my hair dryer shorted out and set off the smoke alarm so I gotta buy a new hair dryer (and I have a giant headache from the smoke alarm), plus I was supposed to go to a friend's place today but she had to postpone till Monday.

here's a meme:

HAVE YOU EVER: ?

1. Made bread from scratch?
yeah! both yeast breads and quick breads

2. Cooked fresh squash?
nope. I don't like squash.

3. Made homemade soup?
yeah! about the only useful thing my mean crazy ex taught me

4. Fried chicken?
yes, but not very often, all that hot oil going makes me nervous

5. Made spaghetti sauce from scratch?
sure, lots of different kinds

6. Made homemade rolls or cinnamon rolls?
rolls, yes, cinnamon rolls, no. cinnamon roll cake, yes.

7. Baked a cake from scratch?
lots of times

8. Made icing from scratch?
yup, I don't like that canned icing, it has too much sugar in it and doesn't taste enough like chocolate or vanilla or lemon or whatever it's supposed to taste like. Do they still make icing mix? I haven't seen that in the stores in a long time.

9. Cooked a pot roast with all the veggies?
no, I don't like pot roast

10. Made chili from scratch?
yes

11. Made a meatloaf?
no

12. Made potato salad?
yup but it didn't come out very well

13. Made mac/cheese from scratch?
no

14. Made any pies from scratch?
fillings yes but not the crust. I use the frozen pie crust.

15. Made sausage from scratch?
Nope

16. Made fudge?
yeah

17. Made cookies from scratch?
lots of times. I used to work in a couple of bakeries

18. Cooked a pot of dried beans?
yes but it didn't come out at all well

19. Cooked a pot of greens?
no

20. Made cornbread from scratch?
yes

21. Made a pie dough from scratch?
no, see #14

22. Cooked a whole turkey?
yes

23. Snapped green beans & cooked them?
yes but I think green beans are a very boring vegetable

24. Made mashed potatoes from scratch?
always!

25. Prepared a meal for 30 plus people?
not that many. My mean crazy ex sometimes used to bring large groups of people I didn't know home without telling me ahead of time and expect me to make food for them but not that many.

26. Made homemade tortillas?
no, but I saw them do it in Mexico

27. Made pancakes from scratch?
yes

28. Roasted vegetables in the oven instead of boiling them?
yeah, they're much better that way

29. Made pasta from scratch?
no

30. Made tamales from scratch?
no

31. Made tuna or chicken salad?
tuna, no. (I don't like canned tuna, you might as well be eating cat food) Chicken, yes.

32. Fried fish?
yes

33. Made baked beans?
no

34. Made ice cream from scratch?
yes, I have a Donvier ice cream maker.

35. Made jam or jelly?
no

36. Zested an orange or lemon?
yes

37. Made grits from scratch?
no

38. Made an omelet?
yes

39. Made homemade pizza?
yes

40. Lived in a house without a dishwasher?
Yes, in fact the place had no hot water so I had to heat up dishwater on the stove because you can't wash dishes with cold water. Incidentally, the one I have doesn't work all the time, sometimes it works fine but sometimes it stops before it's finished and won't keep going unless I lean on it which happened this morning and further fucked up my legs.
