Pronouns: he/him & they/them. Quality SDET. Food geek. Gamer (video, miniatures, rpg). Avid reading enthusiast.
I saw this and.. I know it was cliche. My first thought was: "And they say dreams don't come true.". My goal this weekend or next week is to make some quality chicken tikka, butter chicken and some deeply spiced and seasoned saag paneer. I'll be using King Arthur's recipe for naan.

Nongshim is better than Buldak. Buldak isn't very good.

This looks great! Seriously, I think the next time I'm asked to do a charcuterie board, I am absolutely going to be making this!! I sort of suck at crescent dough, or fluff pastry, croissants, etc. This would hopefully be worth the effort!
I learned how to bake a Cornucopia made from Crescent Roll dough from a video. Turned out pretty cool. Was a hit at Thanksgiving!

I have got to do some painting. I have a bloody grocery bag of assembled and primed figures. I have a ton of goblins. But maybe I'll do a necromunda ganger. I wish I could have a poll, but oh well. Perhaps I'll work on the trolls, finish up my actual army list or goblin wolf-chariots.

So we ended up having friends over last night and had dinner. Sort of having time with friends when they are available. Since folks have obligations on Thursday. There were a total of 5 people, there was a lot of cleaning involved.

Did some additional baking. We've got more pictures in store to follow. An enormous ham. Some delicious salad, a green salad. And the fancy Internet meme recipe. I'm really looking forward to serving.

I made a cranberry tart. I'm excited. But also peeved. It's not smooth. I want the surface smooth. But oh well. I'm looking forward to the almond flour crust. Hopefully it turns out well! I'll get a cross section pic later.

It's been weeks or months since I've painted something. I really need to work on my little gobbos. I feel like I've made progress posting food pics. But my miniatures and army progress has certainly been lagging lately. I have a ton of figures during the summer that I primed.

I made a pie. Key lime pie. 🍋‍🟩 🥧

The GF bought ingredients for a pie and has communicated to me about a desire for pie. I have the goal of making a key-lime pie this week. The surprising thing is she bought Stroopwaffle crumb for the pie crust. We don't have any whipped cream, but I could make that. Not sure about toppings.

I just haven't had the spoons or mental energy to do any hobby or craft stuff for painting lately. I feel like my backlog is just growing. But I also feel, if I don't have 4-6 hours to invest and solidly focus on painting. I just can't do it. I feel like 30min at a time isn't sufficient.

Butter chicken lasagna. Basically butter chicken with broken lasagna noodles in it.

So recently I've been watching a pretty damn good food related YouTube channel. Called Sorted Food. It's been entertaining to watch. My lovely GF suggested we give their app a shot. We've been using it with some great success.

Here's the aforementioned ramen I made. I think it got dressed up real nice.

I totally forgot to upload pics of the cooking I've done recently. Here's some excellent Chicken Parmesan I made previously.

Made some Chicken Parmesan, did some nice ramen as well recently. I need to do some hobbying. I've got a multitude of goblins and other figures that need assembling and painting.

I made pasta last night. It was.. quite simply an unmitigated disaster. The only thing with any redeeming value was the new sauce. But even then, it needs a little practice. At best, being charitable, it needs practice. At worst, my pasta was... Horrendous. A production, a chaotic mess.

I made a cake. Peanut butter, with peanut butter frosting and peanut butter ganache. I'm not a very good baker and cake decorating is not my forte. But it turned out delicious!

I did some assembly yesterday. It was a PITA. This I would have preferred to do as a sub-assembly. But it's too impractical. There is so much detail I won't be able to paint. There's a Stargrave game planned, this will be my apocalyptic crew.

I did some fried rice yesterday. I give it a barely passing grade. But tasted okay. This might require more science.

Today is a scary and dangerous day. I'm going to be watching some videos and making some fried rice. Which is to be considered "dangerous knowledge".

I might need to be cut out of my home after this.

I made some drunken noodles. I think it turned out great.

Gonna make some lap xuong sausage. Or at least once I have a good recipe. Been googling and doing some searching. Picked up some casings. It's been a while this should be fun.

Did some deep fried pickles as an experiment. They turned out okay. Though, my frying game needs solid work. I would say the batter, the technique, coverage, etc.

I just got gifted a Shitake mushroom kit! In addition to doing a ton of pickles. It looks like I'll be growing some mushrooms. In addition to the other fun culinary adventures currently in progress, I have a plethora of Gloomspite Gitz to glue together and prime and paint. So stay tuned!
