I’m supposed to move to China at some point in the near-ish future. Besides finding random ways to improve myself and friends/relatives to pester, I’ve taken to filling my otherwise-useless time with creating things. I’ve turned to my trusty passion, cooking and baking, basking in the white side of me. Oh, how I love producing edible treats of mouthwatering delight. (Strangely, most of the time, my food experiments don’t marbelize into such.) I wish I had been able to cook more while I was in school. Now I definitely won’t be able to cook much or bake at all in China.
A list of things I have cooked or baked since I’ve been home:
- Spiced apple pie — as American as you can get!
- Feta chicken with angel hair pasta
- Bell pepper chicken with feta orzo
- Chicken cordon bleu with prosciutto and provolone
- Avgolemono, orzo and chicken soup
- Smoked gouda and edam macaroni and cheese with chard and salami
- Coconut cranberry muffins
- Tapioca pudding with coconut milk
Wow, these all sound really tasty. You should add photos too! Especially the tapioca pudding! I want some! And yes, I totally encourage you to keep creating things. Hopefully, you’ll move onto meals that have longer expiration dates and can survive UPS. As a reminder, you have a hungry friend in Athens, Ga.
