Into the Fog

-
Okay I may have mentioned that I would be going to two schools during the semester for the fact that my school isn't offering a class that I need to graduate (with my major in mind) for the next two semesters. So I'm stuck going to two.
I had taken a test drive to the school during the summer to estimate driving time and make any mistakes of wrong turns before the school year started. I did that during the summer and in the middle of the day when it was nice and sunny.

Well today was the second day at the second school. I'm looking forward to this class as well as the other class I'm taking for my major. What I'm not looking forward to is the fog. This class I have is probably the first class in the morning, 8 o'clock, so for me I leave the house about seven and have a good half an hour drive ahead of me maybe not including traffic. This morning when I left home it looked nice and sunny, but about the midway point between home and school that changed. The sun disappeared in the clouds.

This second school has me heading up north towards San Francisco, see I don't think I realized that when people talked about the weather there they weren't exaggerating, it's not the best weather. You don't really get to see the sun I don't think until maybe noon. I myself am not sure since by that time I'm back at home or at least my home town. Wednesday was the first day and I was so happy when I left to see the sun come out and take off my sweatshirt. Oh lots of fun! Today is a different story, there is tons of fog, heading in and when the class was over the fog was still there. I decided to stay at school for an hour, get a little better feeling for it, but it would be a lot easier if it wasn't so cold. I found the dining hall, the book store and a couple other places, and I'm staying inside for a while before I have to head to work. Hopefully then it will be a little sunnier.

 When I go back and think, I may not have taken a picture of the dinners I made.  Nope no picture of the Cajun fried rice or the Cajun chicken pasta .  I even tried to remind myself to take a picture of it as my lunch, and even that was a no.   Guess I'll start with the fried rice since I made that first.  I think it seemed simple enough, and I was almost positive I had all of the ingredients or if not a substitute, as I switched the brown rice out for white.  For the life of me I kept forgetting to look and make sure we had shrimp, but also take it out to defrost.  Our freezer is not that big, but the shrimp was all the way in the back behind baked goods, chicken, berries and a few other things I forgot were in there.   Shrimp came out and defrosted day of, although I don't think they were deveined so they took a little more prep work once the cooking started.  Side note, my coworker had mentioned making shrimp tacos and I thought...

July

  Yikes!  Did the last month or so get away from me or what.  I had honestly started this, well prepped this a month ago, and then apparently life happened.  So before I'm two months behind, what did I make in July.   I made lots of things with cream cheese, and if you keep up more will come, a because these mini cheese cakes were a bit of a cheat while I yet again wait on buying something that I may not have room for in my kitchen right now.  Yes a springform pan takes up less room then a stand mixer, but how often will I use it?  Actually if I had one I might use it as regularly as I am my muffin tin and donut pan.  Well, maybe not but at the rate I'm going at least once every couple months.   Now I went with mini cheesecakes to lets say ease myself into it.  I've had most if not all the ingredients for a month, and was just waiting for the right time, and I may have pushed back because cheesecake isn't really a summer treat...

List of Making

 I've got a few things scattered here and there, and pins saved for a rainy day but if I write them here maybe make myself more accountable they might be more likely to happen.  I thought about lasagna a few weeks ago, knew I had most of what I needed, just needed a recipe really.  Do I have my mom's recipe or is it one of those things that's more in her head but not written down anywhere?   I also talked to her about making chicken and dumplings to get her thoughts/input since I've got bisquick and I think it would go over well here.   Just went through my "recipe book" I typed up before starting college thinking I was going to be like my sister who had moved out a year before making all these fancy things for myself for dinner.  Makes me laugh what I put in it.  Mostly desserts, some snack or side dishes and maybe a few actual meals.  Way to go Carrie from ten years ago! So here is the list (probably won't make all of these) but it sh...
