Some yummy (or not so yummy treats)

Well I just wanted to post a couple of pictures of some of the dishes I've made over the course of a couple of weeks, some came out yummy, some didn't, but still look yummy, so I'm posting them lol..

This is the raw fettucini alfredo I was very eager to make... Unfortunately it did not come out as great as I hoped it would, it looks absolutely delicious. The sauce is missing something very important and I haven't quite figured it out yet, and I haven't tried again. So maybe some day I will give it a try again.



This was delicious marinara that I made a week or two ago in Barryville. The issue I had with it, however, was that it called for onions and garlic. Now I'm not sure if that was what caused some stomach upset for me or not, but I suspect it might have. I had put a small shallot in there and a couple cloves of garlic, and it unfortunately did not sit well with me. However, the taste was really awesome. I will probably tweak it to not include those items and see where I end up.

Oh yummmm... Banana/date ice cream, or "cookie dough" ice cream, with the dates acting as cookie dough. Khadrawy dates, which I've used all up unfortunately, are probably the best to use with this, they defintely have this dough-y caramel like feel to them that tastes so amazing.. But really it's just frozen bananas blended with a little vanilla and a few dates, and some dates sprinkles on top. It was so amazing.. I've been making it every day now. 


This was just a fruit run with John and I from probably a week and a half ago. A trip to Sam's club. lol.


Me and Chris on Coney Island :-)
