this is not a real food post, but it's about.. candy!!

look who is target's new halloween mascot!

aiya. he is now officially commercialized to death. :(


but still, how great would it be if I could steal this and use it as jason's headboard for his bed??

They also had cute toys, but they were $5-$8 each! :(


and um.. WHAT MONTH IS IT?

disclaimer

I guess it's not really fair to claim that EVERYTHING I eat is from the microwave or rice cooker, because a big portion of my meals (namely, all the meat :D ) is prepared by my mom/sister or leftovers from eating out.. I really don't want to eat microwaved meat, though. That's just nasty.

But anyway, I've gotten so lazy that I didn't even use the microwave to prepare tonight's (technically last night's) dinner! It was all heated in the rice cooker.. yay!!

I hope my room mate doesn't hate me for constantly cooking stuff in the room.. and then being weird and taking 10 pictures of every bowl. :(

So without further ado:


rice with mom's chicken and un-podded soy beans. no real veggies :(


I only cook 1/2 a cup of rice at a time and it always burns on the bottom, but that just makes it yummier. This is a close up of some of my yummy crunchy rice :D

If you noticed that I use my yellow bowl a lot, it's because I've been trying to get the curry smell out of it from the nasty curry macaroni a few days ago. It still lingers. Actually, it's still in my fridge. Should throw that out.

sticky rice chicken leaf wrapped thing

i don't know what it is called.. but it microwaves pretty well :)


a lonely mound of rice.. OM NOM NOM


look at the shiny grains of rice! like diamonds :)

IT'S BUNDAY!

what did i use to prepare these delightful, snowy white buns?

rice cooker, of course.

oh wait, they are still in there. :(

polishing off the leftovers :)

nothing TOO weird today. tried to finish off things in the fridge before they decomposed and started growing fungus :D though then again, if they start growing fungus then i can eat mushrooms and things!! yayyy my own farm! :)


peachy! i am too lazy to cut the peach, so i just threw it into the yogurt. still good.


does the bread look familiar? it is now hard enough to knock someone out. multipurpose food!

cookin' mah rice

Yay I love making rice!

So today I had some veggies, a chunk of chicken and pa jun that eula made.

I steamed the veggies and microwaved the chicken..

but the pa jun was frozen. And for some reason, I thought it would be a good idea to steam the pa jun after taking out the veggies.

I DON'T KNOW WHY!! But I had a very soggy pancake.. :(

Oh well.



steaming the pa jun


And last night was the ServiceNation event here at Columbia! Obama and McCain came to give speeches on service/in memory of 9/11. And Tobey Maguire was also there. Heard there was an Usher sighting too. I don't know why. See my Flickr photostream for pictures here.

And I made this homework planner!

chicken curry sans chicken

Curry noodles are supposed to be really yummy, but I didn't have any ingredients on hand besides a packet of chicken curry mix and a tupperware full of spiral macaroni. And greek yogurt. So I prepared the curry according to the microwave instructions (stinking up my room/lounge/hallway/hair/clothing/life in the process) by mixing in a cup of water and nuking for 3 minutes. Fancy, I know. I learned it at the Culinary Institute of America. Or France?

So after making that noxious curry sauce, I spooned some of it over my macaroni and mixed it in. I guess chicken curry really isn't good without chicken... because it tasted like my tongue burning and nothing else. :( So to remedy this situation, I spooned in some 2% milkfat Fage greek yogurt :9

It still tasted like crap. So I added salt. And then it was delicious!! (No, actually, it still tasted like crap.)

So that was my crap lunch for the day.

It even looks like crap:


Oh and I accompanied it with a semi-stale hunk of sourdough bread from the farmer's market! 9:
