Low Fat Greek Yogurt Chocolate-ass Cookies

so that chocolate chiffon cupcake recipe was pretty weak. i don’t want to like, throw them away because i promised one to paddy, but the reviews on the website are right, they are kind of akwardly salty, dry, and not necessarily delicious at all. kind of a bummer since they took so long, but no matter! tomorrow morning we move on to muffins!!!!!!

The Best Salad of All Time
So I’ve realized my best chances of being a ridiculously successful and highly famous blogger are from being one of those people who Inspires You To Make Healthy Choices and not the kind of person who tells you about when she spent 15 minutes quietly gagging on a string bean at her place of employment. so here it goes. i will tell you the story of the greatest salad I have ever known, and I...

Cod is maybe delicious, but it's a tough call
So i make a lot of fish. this is mostly because the family really likes when there is like a main dish, and then other shit as sides, and they simply do not believe that a vegetable could really suffice as a main dish. so i made another recipe from the paul newman cookbook (cost me 50 cents at a book sale at the library. best. purchase. ever) and this one was just okay. last time paul newman was...

Italian Baked Halibut
From Paul Newman’s cookbook. I made this the other day and my family flipped a fucking shit. Definitely the best reviewed food I have ever made. Yeah so it was real delicious and truly not so hard to make, the main thing was watching the fish carefully and not cooking it that long. you honestly want to try to get all up in there as soon as you can separate it easily with a fork, cuz then...

Well, fack
so i decided to make a blog where I write about all the shit I try to cook. Sometimes I am good at cooking and other times I fail in spectacular ways. I will try to post recipes. I will almost never post pictures, unless someone buys me a camera or I start getting drunk more often. Cool so see you soon!
