Today I cooked a proper meal. A dish I’ve never tried before. I followed a recipe and even used the owen! That doesn’t sound too impressing but it is when it comes to me. Perhaps you remember my new years “wish to do list”. A list of not resolutions but things I’d try – not promise myself – to do. Well cooking a dish I’ve never tried before once a week didn’t work out too well. Cooking in general haven’t worked out too well lately. I actually didn’t cook a meal for a month back in march. Not one! I lived on tv-dinners and sandwiches.
I’m gonna try to do better and before I went grocery shopping this tuesday I picked out a few recipes I’m gonna try and bought ingredients. My fridge is full of vegetables. Vegetables! Usually the only thing even remotely similar to a vegetable in my fridge is the bottle of lemon juice shaped like a lemon. And that lemon juice is barely ever used for actual cooking. Mosty I just use it for my tequila wannabe drinks.
Speaking of which, I shared my drink recipe for finnish summer soup a while ago and now I’m gonna share with you yet another classy drink. The Tequila Wannabe!
This is what you need:
Vodka
Bottled lemon juice
And this is how you do it:
Drink the vodka from one shot glass and then the lemon juice from another shot glass. Repeat until drunk.
The story behind this is that I hate drinking vodka straight but sometimes I run out of soda or whatever I’m mixing it with. So to wash away the taste of alcohol I drink a shot of lemon juice right after the shot of vodka.

Ohh I love cooking! Though I always have to have someone there incase I do something wrong -_- i can cook pasta and all the basic type of meals. Nothing too fancy!
I don’t like vegetables! Doode! I remember those bottles of lemon juice, back in the day. Haven’t seen them in ageesss!
Cannot wait until July, I’ll be allowed alcohol legally!
Kudos to you for cooking a meal! I haven’t cooked a proper one in quite a while.
Your drink recipe cracked me up! rofl. I hate drinking vodka straight, too.. I just might have to try your little recipe..haha.
cooking is fun but it’s not either my thing.
I used to cook before when I was in H.S like just to experiment some thing

OFF TOPIC:
Sorry about da comment thingy
didn’t know it was disable thanks for letting me know anywae
Now it’s oN again
Whenever I cook something like eggs or chicken if I add onion powder and pepper I find it makes everything taste 100x better. I use it every time. It made plain old french fries smell like carnival fries.
I can cook but unfortunately not like the one you did. Ha, vegetables. Not my type.
Nice layout Btw.
Congratulation on making a perfect set of meal xD
I can cook but I can’t open the stove I’m a bit scared of fire, like lighter when you try to open it, I get a little bit shock so no matter what I do if I can’t open the stove I can’t cook anything, as for the vodka can’t drink not allowed and not on legal age, I prefer drinking it when I’m already half-dead xD
Thanks!
I always love tyo cook although I never had the time to do so. Congrats on trying to cook!
Haha great recipe!
I have the same issue with food, but I try to cook something everyday-even if it’s only pasta with pesto. Making something out of a recipe maybe happens once a month if I’m lucky, it’s quite fun though! sometimes it don’t work out as planned(usually don’t)
