Thanks to @Amazonchique and Lissa, I now have an air fryer.

GIVE ME YOUR RECIPES.

So. That new Dr Who. Gotta say I was not happy with the first half, as there was a LOT of "Disney" elements to it with the fantasy stuff and music, but the second half felt more Dr Who to me.

I'm hoping the season kinda walks back the fantasy elements (or at least un-Dinsey-fies), because if they keep it up, I may end putting the show away for a while.

So, I figured out a fix for that Seafood Marinara that was so bad. Take the seafood out, put it in a new bowl, and pour spaghetti marinara over it. SOLVED.

A wonderful Christmas Dinner with Crystal, Lissa, Noam and Seanan. A night full of good talk, good food and...well...something else on the menu.

And yes, we did eat it. Goes good with strawberries. And by good I mean...well...the strawberries were good.

I have skinny jeans? I can wear my scrunch boots with them!

It's a commercial. But it's what feels like Christmas to me: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_zCsFvVg0UY

This Week's Fancy Pants Meal: Seafood Marinara.

It's bad folks. Like REALLY bad. Ooof. And I LOVE seafood.

Made some cinnamon rolls for Christmas dinner, and the first batch came out SO bad (they literally melted into a sheet of dough when rising), that I made a second batch.

The second batch was sort of better, but still collapsed on itself. And the oven decided to overcook them. And I put too much evaporated milk in the icing when It came out too thick, and made it too thin.

Next time, I'm going to try making them in a casserole dish instead of a baking tray like the instructions say so the walls (and the other rolls) can hold the dough up.

But hey, dry cinnamon bread with a hint of icing! Maybe a few seconds in the microwave will save 'em.

Everyone time I see this brand name at the local grocery store, my brain automatically assumes it's AI generated art struggling to make a complete word.

So, I've started freezing milk to cut down on food waste, and for the most part, it's working! There still more waste than I'd like, but at least I'm not throwing out a quart of buttermilk for a quarter cup of the stuff.

This year, give the gift of BEEF.

This Week's Plain Jane Meal (2/2): Ribeye Steak

Another super easy, super tasty quick plate for the week. Ribeye Steak with just salt and pepper, fried in a pan of olive oil. Maybe a dab of A1 sauce.

My pork easy meal is usually just sausages warmed up in the microwave.
