I used to want to be a chef.

But that isn't going to work out. Cooking just isn't my thing anymore. Even if it was, I don't think I could do it everyday for the rest of my life as a job. I swear in college I'm going to live off of cereal because it's easy to make and I practically do anyways.

I only really like cooking on cloudy days. I don't know why but I just usually am more in the mood then. Unless I feel like cooking, I am NOT a good cook. I set the smoke alarm off making grilled-cheese. Who does that?! Most of the things are cooked done to the point of almost being burnt, but instead have a nice crisp to them. That's fine when your cooking things like cookies, french fries, and chicken nuggets, but when your cooking things like cake, bread, and quesadillas, it's better that I don't cook. That is all mostly a timer-temperature issue. I have had some really bad expirences where that isn't the problem. When I was in fifth grade or so I wanted to make a cake. We had a strawberry one and I loved strawberry things back then. I was excited- so excited that I got all my ingredients out so fast I didn't look at the labels. I made the cake and when it was all done and everyone was eating it I noticed it tasted a little funny but not to much so I didn't say anything. Since no one else complained I just thought that it was my taste buds. I never like to put things away. I will take stuff out make a mess and rarely clean up. When your young you can get away with it though to an extent. My dad was putting away the ingredients like the egg and milk cartons, the sugar and vanilla, etc., but when he got to the oil he realized that something wasn't right. We eat mexican food a lot at my house, that includes frying our own tortillas, and my dad puts the old oil back into an old oil container so he can dispose of it right. Apparently I had used that oil instead of regular vegatable oil. The funny thing was, was that that oil was on the third shelf of the cabnet and the one I should have used was on the first shelf. I think I'm to spacey to cook. For foods class last year the end of the term project was to cook something at home and bring it in. I decided to make deviled eggs. I had to double the recipe and being me and all I doubled everything except the mayonaise. It was really dry and gross, but I don't think anyone in class noticed. At least they didn't say anything if they did.

When I'm in the mood to cook though, I cook really well. I can make the nestlé cookies look like they do in the comercials- and taste amazing. I am a great macaroni and cheese cook, too. I make it so cheesy and delicious it's pretty ridiculous. Oh and hamburger helper is another one of my specialties. There's other stuff that I can cook, those are just my bests.

I don't watch a lot of television, but when I do, it's mosly the food network channel. It has the best shows ever. Unwrapped is my absolute favorite. I also watch Chopped when it's on. Sometimes they will have specials on things and I will watch those too. I never really got into Iron Chef Ameria. It bores me a little. When I got my wisdom teeth out and couldn't eat, I would watch the food network channel and dream about the the food I would be able to eat once I got better. I ended up getting dry-sockett (not fun) and I couldn't eat for even longer then anticipated and it sucked! The food network channel got me through. Cheesy I know.

My favorite food is and probally always will be Mac & Cheese. It's just so good! I also love donuts, cheese sticks, all breakfast foods, most mexican foods, and popcicles. Once my friend and I ate like 8 popcicles in the summer for breakfast. It was fun. I mostly just drink water. Occasionly I will drink chocolate milk, kool-aid, sunnyD, milkshakes, and smoothies, but not really. I hate pop. It makes me so dehydrated and stomach achy. I will occasionly drink Dr. Pepper or Sprite if we have it, but not usually.
