An Update

As many of you know, I up and left New Hampshire for the sunnier side of life in San Diego. While today itself is not turning out to be a literal sunny day, I am enjoying it out here. I am still looking for a full time job, but in the meantime I have been cooking for my boyfriend, Brad, and our roommate, Nick.
Many of you know I drove my car across country and my main concern for packing my car (clothes aside) was making sure I could fit all of my kitchen equipment in the car. I knew that Brad didn't cook moving out here and we had several phone conversations which went like this: me - do you have (enter anything you could think of)? Brad - nope.  While I drove everyone crazy with my neurotic packing of kitchen supplies, I am glad I brought it. Not working and being new to an area is a little more difficult than I anticipated. The good news is that I am enjoying making food for Brad and Nick. Sometimes they look at what I've made and ask questions of, "now what is this?"but they seem to enjoy everything and are happy to not have to worry about dinner. Plus I've saved them tons of money in not eating out every night.
I have made some new dishes which I will definitely be posting soon. For the most part I've made food I've already posted to the blog - Pesto Presto Chicken, Mexican Stuffed Shells, Spinach and Artichoke Mac & Cheese, Beef and Broccoli Stir Fry, and Gazpacho Pasta. Brad's two favorites are Mexican Stuffed Shells and Pesto Presto Chicken. Mexican Stuffed Shells are inexpensive and easy to make, I've made them a few times. So far its been full, happy stomachs and I don't have to do dishes afterwards, which is pretty awesome.
I will definitely be updated my blog with some new things I've made. Please comment about anything you've tried from the blog, add what you thought and what you might've changed. Keep cooking :)
