Thank you for checking out this blog, but now it is permanently closed. Please visit my main blog:

This blog is permanently on hiatus. I haven't really stopped baking or cooking, but maintaining too many blogs is really hard. Maybe I'm whining. ^o^;; I'm not deleting this blog, so it'll stay up for posterity's sake. I dunno when, but it will be resurrected. Ta ta for now.

 
 

I'm planning to scrap the layout on this blog. :D New layout soon!

Childhood reminiscences

When you're young, you experience the world not only through memory but by sight and your other senses. You can remember the familiar scents of home: your mother cooking your favorite dinner, your father's aftershave, the scent of freshly laundered sheets, and other scents that bring you comfort. Taste is also a big thing when you are young. You remember the flavors of your childhood. And ice cream was the biggest wasn't it?

At my age, I remember Thrifty's ice cream (Rite-Aid now)and getting a double scoop of Double Chocolate Malted Crunch. The ice cream is still around in certain places and you are definitely lucky to have it available to you.




I found these through yumsugar.com. Well if you haven't read yumsugar then take a gander below.



Bring back memories doesn't it? :) The cylindrical shape of the scoop ready for stacking just like good ol' Thrifty's. Get the scoop here:Ice Cream Scoop & Stacks for $16.95 each from Cuisipro. Now just get the ice cream. For me, I prefer the Double Chocolate Malted Crunch.

Not-So-Instant Mac N' Cheese




A quick dish using shredded 4 Cheese Blend Mexican Cheese, unsalted butter, 1/2 lb of cooked farfalle (bowtie) pasta leftover from my pasta salad, and whole milk.

[picture]

1/2 package of farfalle, cooked and drained
1/4 c. (4 tbsp) of butter, unsalted
1 c. shredded 4 Cheese Blend Mexican Cheese
1/3 c. whole milk
a dash of pepper

In a saucepan, combine the milk and butter and cook over medium high heat until the milk is hot and butter is melted. Add the 1 c. of cheese and stir until cheese is melted and incorporated. The sauce will thicken when cooled. Take saucepan off of heat and pour into a bowl. Throw in the cooked and drained farfalle and toss in the cheese sauce. Add pepper and stir. :D
