As It says above, I am a first year cook .
I do not have a whole lot to say (yet)
But, I will say it's very fun, challenging, and silly at times .
Here's one of the meals I've made !
Red Snapper Fillet, basted in a butter sauce, with shallots, roasted poblano, and topped with herbs

Yesterday I made a delicious chicken piccata and shared it with my roommates and it was a really special moment! It was delicious and I made it completely from scratch. I think that the art of cooking is so important, once you really get a hand of it you can prepare delicious healthy whole foods efficiently cheaply and sustainably! For me cooking is my hobby and one of my passions so I can understand how taking a leap into it can be hard but I always say cook more and your community will tighten around you. Itβs worth the effort! :))))

One of my favorite activities to do is cooking. I rarely eat out, maybe because I grew up in a African household where the question of eating out would be met with βWhat about the food you have in your fridge?β This year specifically where all of us were forced to stay inside, has pushed me to explore my love for cooking even more. Never with a set menu (unless my cravings were elevated), I would leave the task of creating a meal as I opened the fridge. Wonderfully guided along by weekly food boxes from my local community garden, I would just try and combine new and old flavors to create a wonderful lunch or dinner. Paired with a nice glass of natty wine (Gamay Gang). Enjoy the process!

This was a picture from a couple days ago, my love goes to school for psychology and I walk around the campus playing Pokemon Go/reading/listening to music.
A tree. A billion little things, doing one gigantic thing. Living.

Honestly I think it's because we do not blow our noses, which leads us into phlegm, which then leads us into needing to get rid of it.
It's disgusting, I'll always run to a bathroom or do it in a napkin . . .
BUT IN PUBLIC ?!?!
WHERE IS THE CLASS !!!!
