I have no idea what this means, except that it's got chocolate in it (I can read that much!) and it's named after me!

(Okay, probably not really. And too bad, because don't I look tasty?)

French Baguettes

French Bread/Baguettes Starter: ¾ cup bread floor (90 grams) ¾ cup warm water (90 grams) 1 tsp yeast (3 grams) Mix in a medium large bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and leave in a warm place for 12-14 hours. I mix it the night before I plan to make the bread. Dough Put starter in a large mixing bowl – a stand mixer if you have it. Then add: One cup warm water (215 grams) three cups bread flour (380 grams) one and a half teaspoons of salt (10 grams) One and a half teaspoons of diastatic malt powder (10 grams) Mix in mixer on low-ish (I use the 2 setting) for five minutes. Then put in a medium-sized greased bowl and let rise for one hour. Beat down, let rise for another hour. Beat down, rise for another hour. Shape into round blobs, let rest for 20 minutes. Divide in half, shape into long loaves, let rise 30 minutes. Bake in a 450 degree oven for 30 minutes. If you want to add steam, toss some ice cubes in a pan and put them in about a minute befo...

Tuna Casserole

This is medium cheap, medium healthy, and in general kids love it. The degree of difficulty is a bit high, but only because of the white sauce part. Once you get that under your belt, you’re good to go. Ingredients One package egg noodles Three or four packages of tuna Four or five tbs of butter or margarine Four or five tbs of flour Milk Half a cup of cooked peas salt, pepper, onion powder one bag plain potato chips (or one sleeve saltine crackers) Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Cook the noodles accord to the package. While they’re cooking, melt the butter in a big skillet over a low heat. Once it’s melted, stir in the flour. It will make a thick paste. Once you’ve got a thick paste, you’re going to stir in the milk – maybe two or three cups of it, but I’ve never actually measured, just keep adding it until you’re there – stir in this milk at about two tablespoons at a time, mixing gradually. The gradual part is essen...

Potato Soup

This is relatively cheap and very fast to make. If you get the potatoes on sale, you can double the recipe and eat it two or three or even four days in a row, providing you can get the family to put up with that. There's protein in the milk and vitamins in the veggies, so it's even kind of healthy. I can't say kids like it a lot, but it you make it with popovers, they'll put up with it. Ingredients: One potato per person eating & one for the pot (I usually use at least six) Two onions Two stalks celery A carrot or two Some oil (bacon grease is best, but whatever you have) One cup (or more) of milk Salt, pepper Cut up the onion, celery, and carrots. You can grate them if you like -- this makes the soup even better. Cook them in the oil over a low heat while you peel and dice the potatoes. Add five or six cups of water (if you're using six potatoes) to the vegetables, and add cut-up potatoes. Boil until soft – about 20 minutes. ...
