Those who know me personally; outside of work, know that I’m completely inept as a cook. Actually, to be more precise, I haven’t got the patience to bother cooking well. I always end up forgetting about it and burning it. I’ve managed to burn water. Well, I guess the sediment IN the water.
Now, don’t get me wrong. I was taught how to cook at least the basics. I did home-economics like everyone else and learned how to stir fry. Be damned if I remember how to make it though. Give me a programming language, I’ll pick it up in a few weeks and create some interesting snippets of code, but cooking? Forget it.
So, for my birthday (Sept 3), I got a recipe for Carolyne‘s Lasagna of Doom (I love that name *heart*) and I’m finally getting to it today (Sept 21). It’s in the process of sitting out its time in the oven like a good little meal. Why did it take me so long to accomplish? Because I love to procrastinate; especially when it comes to food. I’m one of those people who thinks taking the time to cook and eat is a waste of time. I could be doing something productive, like reading, writing, playing WoW or Starcraft II, programming or watching a season premiere of one of my favourite shows.
Now my kitchen is completely chaotic. I mean really chaotic. My inner OCD (Obsessive compulsive disorder) is sitting in a corner, off to the side, whimpering and trying to get as far away as possible from it. I don’t blame it.
BUT. The food smells delicious and I have high hopes of it actually tasting pretty decent.
Have a great end to your day!
Cheers
So proud.

Thanks, that sounds absolute delicious! I tried one from this lasagna recipe site before but it wasn’t so hot. I think I’ll try a different one tonight though!
