I really need to get over this slenderman thing. I haven't slept well since I saw it over a week ago...
Cooking is awesome. I love cooking. I have, as of this evening, not only roasted a chicken (with stuffing thankyouverymuch) but ALSO prepared a complete meal of fish, veggies and mashed garlic potatoes. The chicken: AMAZING. Stuffing is the most delicious part of the chicken. Better yet, I've still got leftovers for tomorrow (and I made it YESTERDAY). The fish: Not so much, but still pretty good. I made a lemon, butter, garlic sauce and used far too much garlic and lemon juice. My roomie (who's tastebuds are in directly opposite alignment to my own) loved it, and says it needs MORE lemon juice and garlic. It does not matter, as next time I make fish I'm goinna try using less and see how that works out. I'm SO excited! I'm learning what works and what does not!
I even got everything timed PERFECTLY. Once I was done eating, it was time to head off to Engineers Without Borders (Hay! Nice segway dude! Inorite?). I'm part of a group that is working on designing modifications to, and testing, a bilge pump so that it can be sold in Africa as a cheap and reliable water pump for farming villages. The organization we're working with was started by WSU students and professors, and they want to become larger by earning grants from several foundations (all of which escape me at the moment). In order to do this, they have to show that they're worthwhile, so we're trying to produce documentation on this product of theirs (the modified pump). I'm really excited because I've become one of the three main people who talk about the pump, what we need to do and etc. I know I need to be concerned about not shutting people out, but I'm just REALLY excited to be contributing on this scale.
