Boredom leads to cooking ...

So after being laid off for 3 weeks now ... I am so FREAKIN bored ... I decided to go to the store and buy some ingredients and have a try at making some home made Cheddar Corn Chowder ...

I am a decent cook ... I usually make my own creations anyways ... so this is no different ... looked at a few different recipes and I am making a few changes to suit my likes.

Sounds sooo good ... but who knows how it will actually taste when I am done ... lol

As long as you don't end up in the hospital, or dead, I'd call it a success.

I love to cook, which confuses my gf, but coming up with new recipes is fun and tasty at the same time!

Made some homemade Chicken Cordon Bleu the other day. Very good. I think some good homemade Chinese food is next.

Bacon Jam. My sister forward me the recipe.

Bacon, topped with fluff, coated in semi sweet chocolate.

I hope you can see the pictures. Let me know if you can't

ANYTHING with bacon is good in my book !!!

So we had the corn chowder ... DAMN I'M GOOD ... my daughter who claims she doesnt like it ... ate a whole bowl and my other daughter had 2 bowls ...

I took a bowl of it down to the chef at the diner and he even was impressed.

I may now have a part time job paying cash while I am laid off
