The evolution of my dinner






Ever since my parents were talking about eating it a week or so ago, I have been obsessed with beef stroganoff.  Mmm, beefy goodness.  I may have put a little too much sour cream in it, and I think egg noodles would have been better than the penne I made, but otherwise my dinner was delicious.  The only bad part was doing the dishes afterwards.  

I'm having fun making meals I have never made before.  Some new, some that my parents used to make when I was a kid.  It's so different when you're only cooking for yourself.  More leftovers, which gets tiresome, but I also don't have to deal with anyone being picky.  I can eat whatever I want whenever I feel like it.  Life is good.  I think as it gets cooler I will start baking more.  My neighbor bakes all the time - pies, muffins etc.  If I make anything big, I'll have to bring it to work so that I won't eat it all myself.  I am already planning to make a big batch of cake mix cookies closer to Christmas.  I love those cookies!  

Yes, my stove is quite small.  Yes, I painted the fish on that plate.
