Random DIY mixing and More

That is what Top Ramen is for...college kids.

I remember those years. I had a roommate that for a splurge would slice up hot dogs into the ramen! (YUK!). I had mixed frozen veggies and cream of mushroom soup over minute rice instead. Those were the days...

Just talked to my middle, she got a raised edge “pet food mat” at Big Lots for $5. It’s non slip

Oh,cool.We have Big Lots here too.

My son is in his second year college but he lives at home and commutes. I told him today he has already used up his meal plan, added more, and almost ready for another reload. Told him to eat bread and peanut butter at home. He’s killing me with the food costs.

Those meal plans aren’t cheap. My daughter is 3.5 hours away and lives on campus. Room and meal plan are more than tuition. She’s going to share an apartment with friends next year. It’s much cheaper.

That is a good idea

You know I had to get that one too. It was just too weird to not try. I also got pretzel dough.

It's a dirty job, but someone's got to do it.

My tentative plan for tomorrow is to work on some recipes. I know I have at least 2 cheesecake remixes to do but want to work on a couple new ones just because it’s always fun to try something new.

The meal plan at his university is non-negotiable and we have to pay it whether he uses it or not, and whether he lives on campus or not. My nephew just moved into a house with friends near campus and it’s much cheaper, and he can walk to class.

But......what do you mix with pretzel dough?

I was thinking to use it as a base with maybe some kind of cinnamon flavor or maybe a cookie or pastry.

I haven't tried it, but maybe it would work in a fried dough or churros recipe?

 

[Zazie]

Chocolate pretzels?

Don't forget @ceeceeisme to add to that list. I see her every now and again in the FT thread but......

Thank you for remembering me!

I've been busy, popping in and out of ECF when I can. Just bought a new house after house hunting for months. Still need to sell the old one so I have several months of work ahead.

I feel like I barely have any time to mix let alone experiment with new flavors. I've been vaping my usual stand-by recipes for months now. It's getting a bit boring but it keeps me off the smokes!!

Along with other new ones from One Stop I have OSB Butterscotch Malt incoming. A preliminary guess not knowing anything about it yet is that it would probably work with their Lotta Latte, Lucky Shot, various creams, malts, vanillas, etc. Any pointers on this one?
Thanks

I don’t care for butterscotch but my first thought was a cream.

Good morning

 

[FranC]

Good morning, bark up too early but coffee’s cooking and I might look at recipes for awhile

 

[barkfunklerbunk]

I typically wake up at 3:15 am, but leave for work at 4:30 am. I could sleep in a bit more, but I don't like to feel rushed in the morning. Sets off the wrong tone for the day.
