Move over Rachel Ray


I made Turkish lentil soup from scratch last night (yep, you read that right) and, frankly, I consider the entire endeavor a success. All-in-all, it only involved one band-aid (don't worry, I cleaned the blood off the counter before continuing to chop the onion) and a few burn marks from spewing lentils. But thanks to the frozen edamame I store in the freezer (see how healthy I am?), the burn marks are far less burny (burnie?) than they could be.

that was the best ever. so glad i could witness the grand finale. the burned hand was worth it for the 200 or so calories lost in laughter :)

It shouldn't be apartment life anymore (the tag).

Does your lentil soup have hot dogs in it?

Why do you blend it? And why did you take/leave the lid off?

Good job with the cooking, though. Guys dig that.

It warms my heart to know that I'm not the only one with blender issues.

Soo, I was wondering if I can give you a cooking lesson or something? Maybe we could just have you over for dinner. Let me know.
