What's better than beer and bread combined?

Iunno.

In any case, we made beer bread 'cause we were bored. Recipe was pretty simple - 6 cups of flour, 6 tbsp baking powder, 1/2 cup sugar, 2 tsp salt, 1 c butter, and a 22oz bottle of beer. (We used a Red Hook ESB I think). The reason it uses beer is a substitute for the yeast as a rising agent, and because someone thought it would be a good idea to put their beer in the batter. In any case, mix all together, bake for 30-45 mins in bread pan(s) at 375F, and eat fresh. Tastes almost like biscuits, would be good with jam or honey, or maybe even more butter!

In any case, delicious. It's simple, foolproof, and delicious.

Pie

It's Pi day happy pi day everyone! (It won't be as good as 3/14/15 9:26:53, but we'll still have fun if I have to make it fun somehow). Have some pi pie, although this picture that Google image search brought up looks like an ordinary pumpkin pie with a pi symbol on it. Where's my pi flavored pie, dammit?

...mmm, mathematical.

Also @Evan, not sure if I can make it to the the ECCC. We're in town, but the whole money thing kinda sucks right now. I'll trade you a pizza for a Totapoco t-shirt though.

Taco Devil Mar, part 2 (this time with pictures!)

There's not a lot to say about the 5 pound burrito fiasco that Tom didn't say in his retelling. So I'll let the pictures do the heavy lifting. Look at how, the further down you look, the worse we look. It's the deadly trifecta of stomachache, failure, and realizing you're out 20 bucks.

It takes two people to lift. Seriously.

5 Pound Burrito>Tom's head.

I can't say I understood the strategy behind the burrito ball.

Needless to say, we're all failures.

Props to Alex for bringing the camera, and to Steve for being too big of a woman to participate, freeing him up to take pictures.

I really think it zazzes it up.

I didn't have time to buy a cake

So I'm just re-gifting last year's.

Waffles

Never realized how hard it was just to find a good picture of a waffle. I guess this will just have to do. Now, to the rest of the story:

Frozen pizzas are probably Evan's staple food source, but mine as of late seems to be: Toaster waffles. Delicious, delicious frozen toaster waffles. Why? I dunno, they're good. And easier than pizzas. Probably not the most delicious, but still. I'm lazy. Can't beat real ones, but they require work. Eggo waffles aren't waffles... but dammit, they're delicious. And generic brand waffles actually look and taste like waffles holy shit! Well, IGA ones at least. Safeway generic waffles are crap. At least peanut butter masks their crappiness.

Why am I posting about waffles? 'Cause I cant let the blog die. Again. For a third time. >.>

Also it's my birthday tomorrow. -woot-
