Food Glorious Food!

I've nothing much to blog about. Classes have started and while it's not been terribly busy, things are going to get hectic pretty soon. In the meantime, we've pretty much stayed home and hybernated, stuffing ourselves with self-concocted food with our cooking experiments, which, have actually not been as disastrous as one might expect!
It's next to impossible not to put on weight in the winter. One just feels either hungry or greedy all the time! I wish someone out there would invent a machine which can suck away all the fat and weight put on during winter or any season for that matter! It'll surely sell like krispy kreme donuts!

A yummy dessert prepared by MJ. We bought a 'cookie set' which allows one to make lovely heart and rosette shaped shells. Then top that with fruits and a little confectioner's sugar and voila! - a dessert good enough to serve in a restaurant is born. MJ has a knack for making his food look extremely tantalizing!
The heart shaped version. If only you could taste it!
We also bought a rooster shaped egg ring. Great to entertain kids with!
MJ bakes, I cook. This doesn't look as yummy as his creations but it did taste pretty good!
I think I've found the technique to making good pork chops after almost burning the house down the first time. I set off the piercing fire alarm then when my breadcrumbs got burnt and the resulting thick smoke triggered it! This time, it actually turned out well and won compliments from both husband and kid.
