@Wildfire: Always. xD I love sweet and salty things for breakfast lol. I'm doing well, save for my lingering cough that won't go away. How about you?
Good morning.

I had a leftover spring roll and a brownie for breakfast. xD Now I just sip my coffee.

It looks nice out today. Maybe I'll go do something after my fiance gets home from work.
@Totalanimefan: Same. xD It's a wonder how I don't have health issues associated with too many baked goods by now.
@Purpsy: My fiance was watching a video the other day of a guy who made a feast of foods he bought only from the dollar store. I thought it was pretty cool for someone to do that, because it's nice to get ideas for how to live frugally when you need to. Kinda like how I appreciate those who do tutorials with drug store makeup (versus name brand). While I can appreciate that there's some quality expensive stuff out there, it's nice to know that you can pull off something nice with the cheaper stuff too lol.
@Another Movie Addict: Please do! You won't regret it!

@Totalanimefan: I prefer baking over cooking, but it still take some motivation to do it in the first place lol. And why not take shortcuts where you can? Ah man, I could go for a baked sweet treat right now though.
@Another Movie Addict: I had the best chocolate shake when I went there too. It was the Nob Hill Chill from the Ghirardelli Store. *o* I try to make it a point to stop there when I go because I love their chocolate.

@Purpsy: You can always dress up cheap food with more cheap food. :) I'm sure there are lots of great recipes on YouTube for that too! I was watching a video for egg fried rice that I want to try later.
@Purpsy: Perhaps someday lol. It's getting the motivation to cook that's the tricky part. xP

@Another Movie Addict: Makes sense, and I'm glad you got to go! Heck, I like going just to walk around sometimes. It's so huge!
@Another Movie Addict: Awesome lol. I've been to Disney Springs a few times, but not really any of the restaurants. Mostly went to shop and grab a drink or two. Last time I went, I had this amazing wine slush haha.

@Totalanimefan: One day I'll have the patience and desire to make my own cake like that at home. xD
@Another Movie Addict: Nice! And I love duck and I love ramen, so that does sound glorious. *o*

@Totalanimefan: I think I know which cake you're talking about, and if it's the right one, it IS delicious! One of my favorites, and the closest I've had to Japanese style strawberry shortcake in a long time.

@Purpsy: Doing all right. Having a semi-lazy day, and I'm stuck on YouTube watching recipes for various things. xD

@Wildfire: This is why I like Chopped--people get criticism without the drama lol. Plus I love seeing all the different stuff you can cook with that I never knew existed.
@Wildfire: There are a few competition shows on Food Network and Cooking Channel that I don't mind watching if I happen to catch them. Chopped and Iron Chef are a couple of them. I've seen some episodes of Hell's Kitchen, but don't care enough to follow the series with every season lol. More drama than I care for. I also love watching individual chefs just cook on their shows.
@Wildfire: I have watched a bunch of cooking shows on Netflix lol. Favorites include Flavorful Origins and Street Food (I finished Asia, and am watching the Latin America series). I've also watched Taco Chronicles and Salt Fat Acid Heat. I don't care so much for competition shows, but more like documentaries.

How about you?
@Wildfire: They can be! xD

And I've always wanted to make espresso shortbread and olive oil cake. Now I'm onto savory recipes. xD I love watching people cook, even if I wouldn't eat what they're making.
@Wildfire: Oh okay. xD

That all sounds delicious! My mom tends to make fried potatoes, rolls, and corn on the cob when we grill. Sometimes green beans too, though not a lot of people in my family eat their vegetables, unfortunately. No idea what we're doing for dessert, if anything. I'm currently watching random recipes for desserts on YouTube. xD
