Say, what’s that smell? Did someone take off their shoes? Why no, it’s just another installment of BlogCandy, the blog form of the YouTube channel, VlogCandy!
In this post, I’ll be making a food from 15 ingredients, and then eating it. Oh, and having a nice little nerdboy rant at the end, because I haven’t had one of those in a while. Here’s the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-lBpsjHdqXw
The Challenge:
Make a food using at least 5 of these 15 ingredients plus one bonus ingredient: eggs, milk, flour, sugar, salt, pepper, beef, pork, chicken, fish, soy substitute, onion, garlic, potato.
I bolded the ones I used and my bonus ingredient was cheese. I made an omelet! Here are some pictures.
First, I buttered a pan. Then I whipped some eggs with a fork, but I really suck at that so there’s still some of those clear, floaty mucus things in there (eggs are sick). I dumped it into the pan on very low, and started slicing up some of that cheap sandwich ham into little rectangles. I scrambled the egg for a while, and put a crapload of grated cheese into it. When the cheese-egg was almost done, I dropped in the ham and finished her off. Afterwards, I dropped it on a plate and salted, peppered, and onion-powdered it.
Then I ate it.
It was delightful! I think if I had chopped up some real onion and used that instead, and maybe added a tiny bit of garlic, it’d have been better. Also, less cheese. I really love cheese, but that was still way too much cheese. Normally, I’m terrible with eggs, always scorching them and ending up with tons of burnt egg skin instead of anything edible. But this time, I took some advice from a friend and cooked it on the lowest stove setting. Even though it took like 20 minutes, it worked very well. But enough of this serious talk! Let’s get to the blog.
The Blog:
That dude forgot to give a topic. So Ima make my own! “What really grinds your gears? Briefly rant about something.”
What really been grindin’ my gears, you ask? Aside from the obvious Ungratefulness of Cats, Suckiness of Non-caffeinated Drinks, and Everything Political, it’s got to be people that sell you sh*t that doesn’t work, specifically console-to-PC games.
A year and a half’ish ago, I bought Prototype for the PC. It was an incredibly fun game, even if the graphics were a bit dated. But it crashed every 1-5 minutes! I tried every online solution, updated all of my drivers, made sure my computer was well above the requirements for the game, did everything I could but nothing was fixing the problem. Finally, I found out that it was because I didn’t have DirectX 10, which you can only get if you have Vista (because Windows 7 wasn’t out yet). I have XP. But the requirements said that you could have DirectX 9 on the game! That really pisses me off, like, really bad. It was a 50 dollar game.
And now the exact same thing is happening with Fallout 3 GotY edition. Another 50 dollars of my somewhat-hard earned money down the drain. I have to buy a new operating system to play games that the vendors told me I could play on what I have. Crooks, that’s what they are. Grumble grumble grumble.
Well, that’s it for this one. I promise I won’t rant again. There’s plenty of that stuff on the internet as it is, I know. 
Later!
