...It gives me a chance to show off.
'Cause most college students I know can barely cook an egg.
At potlucks, most of them are like "I brought Spaghetti-O's and PopTarts, guys!"
And then I show up with my fancy-dandy caprese salad with balsamic reduction, some bacon-wrapped cheese stuffed dates, and homemade pies. xd
Granted, I'm by no means the best cook, either. I burnt queso dip the first time I tried making it. But I'm excellent at improvising, and when something goes wrong, I can almost always find a way around it. And I have some rather gourmet tastes from all of the awesome foods my mom makes and has introduced me to, so yeah... I tend to put a lot of my peers to shame. razz
I get to bring a dish or two to a Christmas party on Sunday, hosted by a mutual friend of my boyfriend and I. I'll be making the dates and a chopped beet and chickpea salad with homemade Greek dressing.

Prof. Moonie Mama Ame I was all gloating because I figured out the issue. I'm a horrible cook and I noticed that the "flour" was REALLY white. "Er...is that flour?" "Of course it's flour! *dips finger in and tastes* See? I told you it was...powder sugar." And obviously he didn't notice that sugar sparkles... and flour tends to be a bit more airy, meaning it "poofs" whenever you try doing something with it. xd
It was powdered sugar.
Powdered sugar doesn't have sugar sparkles.
