"A moment on your lips, forever on your hips..." PSH! WHATEVER, I'm gonna eat this all I waaant! AND It's going to make me healthier than I was before! You can make homemade ice cream from one ingredient AND it has all of the creamy dreaminess without eater's remorse.
Click the link below (from thekitchn.com)to see what this magical ingredient is. PS you might have had it at breakfast this morning or used it in Sex.Ed.
Look what I found on one of my favorite websites, thekitchn.com
It's super easy it's almost too delicious to be true. You basically put a marshmallow (store bought is fine) on top of a cupcake and bake it for a little bit in the oven, take it out, push it down, and all of this gooey marshmallow goodness oozes out...OMG drool.
I don't know why the link isn't working, but you can search it on thekitchn.com. The article is called "Sweet and Easy: Melted Marshmallow Topping".
There is something about the summer season that makes you feel more relaxed than any other season. Although, IamcurrentlyunemployedanddesperatelytryingtofigureoutwhatIwantdowithmylife, I can still enjoy summer's simple pleasures. Ie, the air as it cools from the afternoon heat, sticky fingers from drippy popsicles, turning over your pillow to the cool side, falling asleep with your windows open. The list goes on...but another thing I looove about summer is the outdoor decor. The decorations escape from the dining and living rooms into the backyard, porch, and patio. I found these amazing lighting decorations from marthastewart.com that would make even Mr. Claus himself want to call everyone over for a summer's eve soiree.
I don't know if it was my recent experience living in an ACTUAL house this past summer (hey...I was in a sorority for the past 3 years) or if it's my inner housewife just screaming to let loose, but I've been looking at cooking in a whole new light.
Lately, I've been making quite the mess in the kitchen because I've been so into food! One of the best parts about being your own chef is that you know what's going INTO your food. Aaand, if you don't like it you can always change it! Does anyone else feel a sense of zen when they cook? Even when there are a billion other things going on around you?
Okay, so I always knew I was a bad cook (my mom got mad at me once for not letting the water boil before I put in pasta) but I didn't know I was missing out on all the OTHER basics of cooking. I know, you're thinking, "how can you get more basic than boiling water?" Who can blame me? I lived in dorms for the first half of college and then a sorority house with a house chef...good grief. As for as I was concerned, the microwave was the new stove top. Anyways, I found this amazzzing Youtube channel called "CHOW". It lets you in on insider secrets like "how to cut an onion without crying" shhh! or how to open a beer bottle with paper, yes, paper! Here is one of several different videos. Homage to the Beastie Boys --> Check-ch-check-check-check-ch-check it out:
