Shot of Whiskey is a Shot in the Dark

A shot of whiskey will cure any aliment you have.

Don't quote me on it since I'm not a doctor.  I have a hard time cooking with alcohol since I never know what its paired with.

I tried a baked brie with apple, apricot and walnuts.  I nice little combination with fresh oat cakes.  Since the oat cakes didn't go very far, I picked up a loaf of fresh French bread.  Never knew how much I missed fresh baked bread until I took a bite out of the sliced piece with warm brie.

Nevertheless, the baked brie didn't last long and we have since had this again on the nights we feel like something rich but way too lazy to really cook anything extravagant.

Green tea isn't easy being Green

Green tea.  Can't just boil water and add green tea to it.  I think it would've tasted better than this green tea cake I made.  The reality of this was that it looks too much like a Pacman.

I wasn't too impressed with the results of this cake simply because it tasted a bit too dried out.

Cake to me needs to be moist or at least have some bite to it to be tasty.  At least to me anyways.

Comfort Food

Comfort food comes in all forms.  In the land of America, comfort food involves a possible childhood favorite.  Unfortunately, the only time I ever had this childhood favorite was in the school cafeteria since my mom never cooked it.

I decided to get a little adventurous and tried making sloppy Joe's with oven baked fries.  I was ridiculed a little for making oven baked fries, but with the amount of oil the boyfriend used, it might as well have been fried.

Eh well, served with a cold beer, this childhood classic made the boyfriend happy and it honestly tasted better than what I remember.  Then again, my memory of cafeteria food as a kid almost would make anyone's stomach turn a different direction.  Where's Jaime Oliver when you need him?
