I just put my seeds into the "grow" room its the room under the stairs with a grow light installed. I got the idea from my farmer friend Enjay

Here we have some Onions Beans Lettuce Cat Nip Cucumbers Broccoli Radish and some Zucchinis, later will be some Corn Sun Flowers Pumpkins and other items I will report on later.

So after visiting Fernando in Chicago I learned about my long lost favorite Pizza. From Ian’s Pizza. I thought that cant be that hard… and set out to make my own (which is cheaper then visiting Chicago)

1 Box of Kraft Macaroni Cheese

1 Boboli Pizza crust (or if you can make a good Chicago crust use that!)

1 Cup 4 Cheese Alfredo Sauce

3/4 Cup Cheddar Jack Cheese

1 Egg

Pre heat to 450. Make the Macaroni and Cheese as directed on box, its important to use the Kraft stuff as it has more of a industrial cheese taste to get you to the Ian’s original. After its made its important to let it sit and cool for a bit. Not only do you want it a bit cooler for the egg, but it also makes the sauce set up better. 5 min of cooling of completed dinner should do it. While cooling take your cheese sauce and spread on the pizza crust. I am lazy and use a boboli but its HIGHLY recommend to make your own thin crust (pizza is all in the crust). Sprinkle a bit of Cheddar jack on and keep the rest.

Back to the Mac when cooler scramble 1 egg in a bowl and add to the Mac. Then stir so its all coated. Put this mess on the pizza sauce on the crust and use the rest of the Cheddar Jack on top of the Macaroni.

Cook on the oven rack for 10–15 min so you get a nice oven baked crust, don't worry about the toppings they arnt going anywhere pay attn to the bottom of your crust. Then let it cool for a while if you can. and BAM your eatin chi-town style.

I got a new site today from a local cake maker I didnt know about, so i wanted to take note of it. Also thought i would share with you all good sites that dont suck (popups etc) to get recipies from

new thing to research Fondant

 

so I was making some divinity last night playing around with new tricks. I found that if you add kool-aid to the egg whites that you get a light color change and a med/strong flavor. with Jello in the egg whites you get slightly heavier and less flavor with a lot of color. either way worth trying since its a really neat way to flavor divinity.

I sort of invented this but not really I just put some effort into thinking about them. Katie really likes them.

• 6–8 French Bread roles (or a good thick bun of some sort that is sourdough based)
• 1 package Jimmie Dean Sausage
• Red/Green/Yellow Peppers
• garlic
• olive oil
• salt pepper
• your fav. zest up spice
• pepperoni log (the type you make your own pizza with the big log)
• green onions
• mozzarella  or pepper-jack cheese

take all the spice garlic and oil and onions and cook up the garlic till just brown. add a little salt to make the water go out of the onions. then add the peppers. little more salt to make them sweat, while this is happening pepper your sausage and break it up a bit. and chop up the pepperoni into small cubes. add the sausage to the pan, when the peppers are browning. cook sausage for 10–15 mins or until the pink is starting to disappear. Then add your pepperoni. cook until the sausage is no longer pink.

cut your rolls and butter the top, put the sausage mix on the bottom, and put the cheese on top of the sausage mix, and broil in a oven till the cheese is melted and the buns arnt burnt. enjoy with a salad or some french fries.

 

I have added a new catagory to my blog. ‘Food’ here I will put things I try that are good, and places I eat I hate.

Here is my first restaurant review. Todd English’s Fish Club In Seattle Washington. This place sucks. Seriously, they tout it like some 5 star but when I came in to get some food it took 2.5 hours to get/eat/pay. We actually waited 1 hour for pasta. 1 Fricken Hour! That is crazy dumb. It wasn't that good. With a bottle of wine (I did get a good one) the bill was 120.00 for two people what a joke. We totally did not tip. HAHA what a jack move. 1 HOUR!! The part that was funny was we were sitting next to some “food blog” guy that worked here his service was just as bad. They messed up his order from seafood to a steak. This place is horrible dont go here. Todd English you suck. Thankyou – Kelly

on a side note they have sorbet that was good.

So Katie talked me into getting a KitchenAid Mixer (I have always wanted one) I got it from Costco for 270 not bad since the 325w version is normally that price and I got the 400 one. I do like the bowl drop version as opposed to the tilt head its less messy and its very easy to add stuff. The first thing I made with it was divinity, used the wire whisk and didn't even have to touch it. It just let it fly and it made some crazy air filled candy. Watch out grandma (she loves it). So im totally stoked – so if anyone wants to get me Christmas presents you can get me accessories for it, the ice cream thing would be cool as well as additional bowls (hint hint) I have a 5qt. bowl lift Stand Mixer

This is the new code for KellyKeeton.com/blog I chose to use the DasBlog asp.net source. with a work space here its nice easy setup just edit xml for the major options. I chose this because i wanted a ASP solution that would run on IIS and have no database back end. This was compared to .text which I didn't like as much.
