Fairly successful day you could say. Didn't really get to sleep as much as I would've liked, but, in lieu of having to go to the store, I proceeded to make Pizza's with topping we had in the house.
Nothing like a Sloppy Joe Pizza.... while I'm sure that sounds.... not good, it turned out pretty great I thought, as well as the other one, made using leftover spaghetti sauce, and chedder cheese, montery jack and a little "nacho mix", with some bacon popped on for good measure.
The only thing I need to do different with my crust is add more seasonings. I'm the kinda guy who likes to have flavored crust. I mashed in a little Slow roasted california garlic and some italian seasoning into the dough, but, I couldn't taste it. Next time i'll prolly use more than the teaspoon of garlic and 2 teaspoons of italian seasoning that I did. Hm, maybe I'll start another blog of recipies that I've tried and think are a success. Not that I'd be doing that cause I'm a narcissitic asshole, but mainly cause, well, I write my recepies down, and have them in a Cinncinatti Reds folder I bought at the dollar store, and my handwriting is attrocious. My gf today asked me if I took the time to write down the recipie for that Banana Cake I made the other day, and, I informed her that I did, and I kinda thought typing them out might be a better way to go, when she was trying to read "LARD" but it looked like... "CANL"? whatever she saw. I could than add the link to the recipie I was talking about in case anyone who actually reads this wanted to try what I was making.
In fairness, and, in full revolation here, I don't really MAKE my own recepies, as much as I feel I'm improving, well, maybe not "IMPROVING" but, taking an exsisting thing, and, modifying it to be something I think may be good.
The Banana Cake is a good example, I didnt MAKE the "cake" mix, I used a store bought box of Dunkin' Hines.... So, IDK what the fuck you would call that, other than, Julia Child would prolly feel like I was the same thing to cooking as Julie Powell was. From what I've read about Julie Powell tho, the IRL Julie Powell, Julia Child might have a bit more respect for me... but, shes dead, and no one cares about what I'm writing, so, we'll never know.
But, maybe I'll do this, it might give me an excuse to type up the "J SuhPees" I'll call them, at the moment, cause, we'll, I'm kinda starting to feel my nyquill, and, my mind doesn't want to work, even tho I'm telling it to.... but this way they ARE typed out somewhere if I need them again, and, if people want to try some of them, hey, they are here to try. I'm all about doing the best I can with what I have in front of me, and, I feel I do a very good job of combining food stuffs. My gf and her sister, and their dogs seems to always be saying YUM when I cook.
So yeah, now I have a project for tomorrow when I finish browsing for jobs.
On that front, I just read a depressing article on the 10 best and 10 WORST cities in the US to get a job. the SECOND worst? Riverside, California. It said there are 12 applicants to every ONE job there. While I'm not in Riverside, I'm DAYM close.... so it's mighty despressing to know thats actually how BAD it is out here.
A friend of mine, Timmy, asked me today if I wanted him to take a look at my resume, as he is good at that sort of thing. I couldn't be more thankful that he offered. Maybe there IS something in my resume that is turning people off. I just don't understand how, even with a 12:1 ratio of applicants to jobs, and the FACT I'd have no issue taking something lesser than what I want to do, that I haven't gotten a call yet. You would think companies would want stability with their employees, especially in this job market, and, the fact in 19 years of working, I've had 3 jobs, one for over 3 years, one for over 10, and than again for more than 3 years, I would be the perfect candidate for any job I'm OVER qualified for, or even REMOTELY qualified for. Before coming in to drop off the Browns at the Super Bowl, and SPEAKING of the Browns, how about that Alex Mack Touchdown in the Pro Bowl today?!?!? MAD awesome, I sent him a copy of my resume. I hope when he gets home tomorrow from work, and, gets some time, he can take a look at it, and, maybe spruce it up some. Maybe it will help. I hope it does.
Anyways, got mad shopping to do this week, off to the really great dollar store for basic needs that its ridiculous to pay almost 5 or 6 times for at the regular store, and, than to the regular store for the things that NEED to be "brand" type stuff. I can respect that people have things they just HAVE to have a brand thing for... I'm like that with my toothpaste for example. I have sensitive gums, so I use Sensodyne. My gums bleed if I use any other toothpaste. Which reminds me, I need to send my dentist something towards the bill I left NY with. Don't want him flying to California and ripping out the fake teeth he was nice enough to put in!!!!
I promise I'll get up some of these recipies, er, "J SuhPees" I've talked about in this blog and link them. Banana Cake and Pizza are 2, not that the Pizza one is acceptable to me yet. Gotta get the right amount of spices in the dough.
There was MAD fucking Kneeding going on in this house today... yeah.... your jealous.
