Kelly HowardAll year, cooking has been a great community event. All of us international students get together at least weekly and prepare meals together. It is also very fun to try to make a variety of dishes with only a few pots, and one pan. Cooking here has definitely allowed me to be very creative in my methods of cooking, whether it be using a frying pan to make an apple pie, or trying to switch different parts of a dish so they can both cook in the same pot. Well, that's what you get for being cheap and not wanting to send a huge box of excess stuff back to the states in June. What can you do?

Goodness Stu..
just a little food fight in the cooking process

Eating
Schnitzel (sp?) is great. Anna and Diana treated us to some pretty darn good food. That's Graehm (English/stu's flatmate) in the background

Voila
Lot's of good, unheathly food, already eaten

Melissa
So Melissa and I treated about 10 people to a fondue night, consisting of chocolate fondue with fruit, and cheese fondue with bread. It was delicious, no set recipe too! Imagine that

Holy Cow!
This was delicious, probably my favorite food night

Playing with Food
Here is Stu and Marielle artistically using the last of the chocolate fondue

The spanish boys
Here is Ramiero and Juanjo on fondue night. A couple weeks after, they treat us to spanish omelet night, but sadly I have no pictures as evidence

The last donut
This is Pip (Philippa from Northern Ireland). She is so awesome and sweet. She had me over for "tea" and I thought it was just going to be tea, but I found out that tea means and entire dinner, dessert "puddin'" included!

tough
How can you cook without putting the food on your face. I think it might be impossible

bread?
There is actually a loaf of bread called white hedgehog loaf! I think that is quite neat

Cooking night for two
stu and i made a delicious plum/ham/rice noodle dish. i think w have actually become professional chefs.

Hopeless
we thought we'd try to deep-fry a candy bar, like we heard with the deep-fried mars bar. we used reeces nut rageous or something. well, yea

into the oil
this has got to be so unhealthy

well..
not that bad actually. stu and i split it and finished it off. quite an experiment

going away muffins
Melissa was heading out for here excursion in Italy, so we all made apple muffins in the morning before church servive in old aberdeen. delicious!

The big test of cooking ability
and creativity. I think I could be a pizza dough maker! So I didn't have a recipe or pan for an apple pie, but insisted that stu and I try to make one. Why not, it can't be that hard.

yea!
This looks great, and the dough even tastes good! all apple slicing and mixing credit goes to stu, we both made the "streudal" topping for the top.

Wahoo!
A pie in a frying pan! Who would've thought? It was a delicious dessert. I was so impressed with ourselves. it was actually edible.

chips!
I wanted some chips, so i just made them. starting with three potatoes, I sliced, boiled, and pan-fried them. bon appetit!
