Day 1: hot dog buns and pudding

This is one of my more complicated recipes. It involves a toaster and a few choice ingredients.

P73

First step is taking the frozen hot dog buns out of the freezer. At the same time you open the pudding.

I'm just showing off how I've mastered the controversial one-fingered toaster technique. You can't say I don't like to live on the edge.

P77

Here I've added some class, by lining the plate with some balsamic vinegar and olive oil, then placing some peprocini peppers on top, covered by a teepee of hot dog buns. The wine is for my post-workout recovery.

P79

The final step: dunking in the fine goo that results from the crumbling toast mixing with the vinegar. Exquisite.

Searching for something to eat

While cleaning out the kitchen last week, I realized that there are some items in my cupboards that have been there for over seven years. I still intended on eating them too.

Now that I've gotten rid of most of the stuff that was actually bad, I'm making a conscious effort to eat what I have at home. I'm not going to go shopping for the same things, only to throw them out again. I'm going to eat what's at home.

Here's an photo inventory of what I've got to eat:

P61

Cereal, Clif Bars, snacks, rice cakes, and sports food.

P63

The can, jar and spice section.

P65

The coffee, tea, rice and bean bin.

P67

The long-overdue for a cleaning fridge.

P69

And finally the freezer of popsicles and nearly-expired meat.
