conversations from the kitchen of Flat L:

Well, the cooking has been going much better lately. Thanks to everyone for their amazing recipes! The ones you all sent have been going off swimmingly so far, and getting into a cooking routine has been really helpful, too. Here are a few humorous quotes from our adventures:

(simultaneously, while making lasagna last night)
Danielle: Remember, you have to follow the recipe exactly. That's what it's for, after all.
Me: I'm pretty sure we can just wing it from here.

(today, deciding what to do with some leftover food)
Laura: I think I'll make some mashed potatoes. These things are about to rot.
Me: YES! That sounds amazing! *pause, in a quieter voice* I mean, if you want to.

Also, in completely unrelated news to cooking, I'm going to Edinburgh this weekend, whee! And I've also made plans for spring break (in Florence and Rome) as well as an long weekend in Paris (in April)! Irving Berlin, that's your cue. :)

Have you made either of mine?? How'd they go??

I've made your chicken taco soup, actually - it went fairly well except that we couldn't find any chili powder in the Tesco. We had to substitute curry powder, which could have been crazy, but in the end, the soup turned out all right! We just finished eating the leftovers a day or so ago.

Awesome! I never really liked that soup...
