Cooking Experiments
Jan. 13th, 2004 01:37 pmAttepted dish: Sukiyaki (
alsafi would be proud).
Messiness: Moderate to above-average. But I don't think it's supposed to be.
Pots used: Too many.
Prep time: Cutting things up took longer than the actual cooking.
Overall tastiness: Quite. The rice came out poorly, but the sukiyaki itself was pretty good.
Unexpected side effect: REALLY WEIRD DREAMS.*
*REALLY WEIRD DREAMS: For example, dreaming that you returned to your childhood home to discover it covered with a general miasma of badness, enormous python-like snakes swimming through the sludge that used to be a pond. Then having aliens show up on your doorstep to learn about human culture before they take over the world, and realizing that guns won't kill them, but a mixture of caramel, cynanide, and electrical charge can reduce them to sludge if mixed in a beaker and poured over their heads. Then awakening, in your dream, to discover you are living in the past, with your parents back together and your grandmother young and healthy again. Then describing to your best friend how you lived with
suboshi and
caltan, and having her lead you to an underground warehouse where you engaged in fencing matches with rakes. And, finally, having Gandalf tell you that one of you, here, must take up your rake and destroy the ultimate evil... a wheelbarrow full of old dolls and travel brochures.
Conclusion: No more sukiyaki for me.
