Having moved in only 5 days ago now we are still living with
very little furniture and next to nothing in the kitchen. This is significant
since I like to eat…
The first days I was too busy cleaning, organizing and
putting away what I could to be overly concerned about eating. By day 3 I was
starving. Our cookware hasn’t arrived yet (except the tiny pink sandwich pan I
brought with) and we have no microwave so this leaves us with limited options.
A quick trip to the grocery store and food would be mine again! Milk made
cereal possible, and cereal is a must in my everyday life. Bread, margarine and
cheese slices made grilled cheese happen and I feel like grilled cheese is
pretty much always a good option. So, it has now been 3 days of sandwiches and
dry soup noodles. As good as that has been…. I was feeling ready for something
else. Enter frozen perogies. Normally
I would boil those delicious doughy little devils but without a pot I couldn’t.
I also didn’t think putting them in a bowl with hot water from the Keurig
machine and putting another bowl on top would work..
Enter from the oven
drawer, sandwich pan! Due to its teeny tininess I could make 6 perogies.
Unfortunately this method takes much longer than boiling but it makes up for it
by tasting wonderful. Firm and toasty on the outside, warm and soft inside!!
Because I obviously didn’t have any kind of topping for them, I had to get
creative. Normally I burn butter and add cracker crumbs (which I don’t
have.)This time it was margarine with beef jerky. Typing it out now I think it
sounds a bit questionable, but let me reassure you. It was freaking amazing.
Basically it was crisp and delicious and pretending to be bacon.
In other kitchen related news, we have a spice rack, coffee
machine with tons of coffee and ridiculous amounts of mugs, 5 bowls, some
utensils and that’s pretty much all. We also have 1 stool pulled up to the
counter for eating. Eventually we will have a table and chairs.. eventually.
I`m feeling hopeful that cookware will come soon and then I can cook. Or try
to…
