Sometimes I guess everyone needs to get knocked off the high horse. I was just cruising along, being fairly decent at feeding myself, and then BAM! Three crappy, nearly inedible recipes in a row.
1. Baked Cinnamon Sugar Apples
These guys were supposed to be like crispy, apple chips. I followed the directions exactly, mind you.
Look how beautiful this apple is!
I had such high hopes for you, little Rome Apple.
Then you turned out to be mushy and gross! Seriously. Mushy. Gross. But nicely colored.
2. Chicken Curry (in a hurry)
Yeah, that’s what it was called. It should be called Chicken Curry (run for your life or just go get take-out!) because this recipe was just a disaster! I means seriously, it doesn’t even look good…
This mess looks nothing like the curry that I love. I guess I learned to leave that to the experts.
Some good did come from the curry. If you’ve been keeping up, you know that I loathe cutting onions (really read the one about pork chops for a refresher). However, I found a new way to cut onions, and it was awesome! Super easy, and now I don’t hate cutting onions as much as I used to. Good news!
3. Baked Pear Bread Pudding
I don’t even like bread pudding, but I found a recipe for it, and I thought my boyfriend would like it. What a mess! I was super wrong! Neither of us liked it because it was gross. It called for some cheddar cheese on top of it, so I only put it on half. Honestly, I should have just covered it in cheese because that definitely wouldn’t have made it any worse…nothing could have.
It was seriously like eat maple and brown sugar oatmeal with a slice of cheese on top. The texture was infinitely wrong. Nothing good came from it…except that I don’t dislike bread pudding anymore than I did before I ate this….
Here’s to better luck with future recipes!
