Anything But Spaghetti: December 2007
http://anythingbutspaghetti.blogspot.com/2007_12_01_archive.html
To the Cat’s Taste. In retrospect, I think I unconsciously created an English (or English Major nerd? Theme this week. First, there were tea cookies (bite- and toddler-sized, in my version), followed by the actual tea on Thursday. Today, I couldn't resist the urge to try something out of To the Queen's Taste. Illustration of how to skin a fish, from the late 16th century.]. Once sated, this one just wanted to nap, and didn't much appreciate having her picture taken.]. Very slightly) adapted from.

Anything But Spaghetti: October 2007
http://anythingbutspaghetti.blogspot.com/2007_10_01_archive.html
A Party of Spooky Doom. There ought to be a rule that Halloween is not allowed to fall on a Wednesday. And if it must be Wednesday, Advising Day should be on November 1. If you have to throw your Halloween bash on All Hallows Eve… erm,. Then you might as well wait for the weekend anyway. Maybe I'm just bitter because I have a late night class on Tuesday and I have no MWF classes so. Of my Wednesdays are blissfully free. Menu of Spooky Doom:. Witch Hat Rice Krispy Treats. Rice crispy balls topped with fro...

Anything But Spaghetti: November 2007
http://anythingbutspaghetti.blogspot.com/2007_11_01_archive.html
A Salad Fit for a Winesap. I liked my apple salad so much I ate two and a half servings in one sitting. But hey, I figure I'm allowed to pig out on fruits and veggies. Maybe it'll even make up for the four snickers bars I had for breakfast, followed by a take-out box full of dining hall French fries for lunch. Two and a half salads balances that mess out, right? Maybe I outta drink a V8, just to be on the safe side. Things you can pocket at the dining hall. 2 cups spring greens mix. 188; cup feta cheese.

http://anythingbutspaghetti.blogspot.com/2008/01/certified-for-microwave-cooking.html
Certified for Microwave Cooking. These recipes brought to you by Litton microwave cooking products! Not really, but I did use the company book, Microwave Cooking – Convenience Foods.

Anything But Spaghetti: A Good Place
http://anythingbutspaghetti.blogspot.com/2007/11/good-place.html
Ah, party prep. I'd forgotten how much it eats my life. But it's all good. It's good to have a goal, to have a grand, tenuous idea that exists only in my head become a witnessed reality. It's good to try more than one new thing at a time, because it magnifies the feeling of accomplishment in the end result. Not only did I do. And I made them all work together. My suitemate accurately compared the dough-ball form to the soot-spirit things from Spirited Away. And My Neighbor Totoro. After he was smooshed u...

Anything But Spaghetti: Ramen Remix #3: “Asian” Ramen Salad
http://anythingbutspaghetti.blogspot.com/2007/10/ramen-remix-3-asian-ramen-salad.html
Ramen Remix #3: “Asian” Ramen Salad. I like to host parties. Unsurprisingly, my favorite center on food. Tea parties, barbeques. Bacchanalian orgies… When I realized that at least seven of my oldest friends now abstain from animal products, I panicked. And when I panic, I buy a book. The book I found was The Salad Scoffer. By Ronny, an import from the British Isles focusing on party food. I already had vegetarian recipes in my other cookbooks; this one drew me on its concept: ". 2 cups mandarin oranges.

Anything But Spaghetti: September 2007
http://anythingbutspaghetti.blogspot.com/2007_09_01_archive.html
Super-Cheesy Mac and Cheese. Have you got the Blue Box Blues? I know I do. And I've got them squared. See, the trouble with out-of-the-box macaroni and cheese is that most of it tastes like something is missing. Even the fairly good, organic, REAL cheese versions. Most notably, these boxed mac and cheeses are lacking in flavor. Well, okay, I suppose they do have. Flavor, but I don't think "fake cheese powder" should count. In the end, I just decided to try both and see what happened. Things you can pilfe...

Anything But Spaghetti: No-Bake Noodle Cookies
http://anythingbutspaghetti.blogspot.com/2008/01/no-bake-noodle-cookies.html
I must not have been thinking clearly when I picked Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays to update. The last night of Hanukkah, Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Year's Day, Valentine's Day, April Fool's Day, Earth Day… all of them on days when I update.

Chocolate and peanut butter chips. About 1 cup total). About 1 ½ cups). I'm a ...
