Weird? No, I'd say you're the healthy kids for preferring sushi over fries. Now if only American kids were like you, that would probably help with their fatass population explosion. Heh.
Ha ha, healthy food is good. I have a high metabolism, so that helps, but I still exercise and eat well anyway. I even gave up soda last month. It's been so hard to not have it. T_T
Maybe American kids should be introduced to the wonderful thing that is sushi and then the percentage of obese people would go down...

It's officially scorching in Scotland so the end of the world may be nigh. To make the oncoming doom more enjoyable I need cool refreshing drinks to consume. Ideally blended ones made of fruits, non-alcohol and ice to some degree.

But still, I like cooking and I have an addiction to baking, I know it's not healthy but every week I want something to bake with, like ready made cookie dough (making cookie dough from scratch makes me sweat.) or brownie mix, and most importantly, cake mix. I like thinking of new combinations for cupcakes and frosting.
So...I guess I make decent cupcakes, sadly I'm the only person at my place who likes lemon cupcakes.
Lately I've been experimenting with making tea sandwiches (even though I don't drink tea.) and they are really tasty, but I got to be careful and not use up all the bread my family has.
I want to try to make omlettes but I'm too skeptical cooking meat that isn't already cooked, and we can only have so many eggs.

Omelettes are no big deal you only need 2 eggs if it's a one-person omelette and you don't even need meat. For me Omelettes have always been more of cheese thing anyway.
Crack 2 eggs into a bowl and mix them together, add a pinch of salt and maybe a small bit of milk to add to the body of the omelette if you like. Can also add more eggs to make it bigger or thicker. Pour the mixture when it's all an orange yolky colour into a pan with some oil in it and let it cook. When it seems solid enough you use a fish slice or similar spatula thing to scrape under one half of the omelette and flip it onto the other half. That's the tricky part for me as the omelette can really come apart if it isn't solid enough. If you want to add something to the omelette then before you do the flip, put the something (normally grated cheese for me) on the other half of the omelette so when you fold the omelette half on top it covers the desired filling. Then let the topping cook for a big when it's covered before serving on a plate.
It's pretty simple like I said tricky bit is not destroying the thing with it being stuck to a pan.

I can cook very few things.
Mostly I cook tomato sauces which I let simmer for at least two hours, just so the flavor can really go into it. But I never use recipes, I just grab whatever seasoning I feel like and dump some of it in. I do, though, generally put some wasabi into it for a little kick.
Also can make white sauces... fry a few things...
I'd be what you call a semi-cooker? I can cook things, if I have to, but I generally don't want to cook. I also see no point in slaving over a feast for several hours if it's gonna get eaten within 30 minutes anyway. I don't like the Christmas or Thanksgiving dinner things, either... the smell of long-cooking meat or generally long cooking food just makes me neausious. Somehow, I don't even like the smell of fried potatoes anymore, either.

Why healthy? Because I used to have an eating disorder ages ago, when I still was in middle/high school and I used to cook for myself since my parents (now divorced) always worked overnight and even during the day and me and my sister stayed home without any food. Sure, my sister is older than me but she never really learned it. For her, cooking is just 'taking some time away' and then she would go out and eat something in a restaurant or at McDonalds.
Well, I was 13/14 years old when I first started cooking. At first I only made some eggs and a few small dishes but I got better by each meal.
I kind of like every food except olives. Just.. no. I hate the taste of them, it grosses me out.
I still cook, especially for my family. They are always so happy when I finish cooking and when they eat their comments are always 'oh that's so good' or 'oh can i have some more'.
I think, I'm a good cook.
The beginning was quite fun, just with all the ups and downs

That's awesome! And it's great that you have overcame your eating disorder. I like cooking for my family too, but usually only sweets, lately I've been too lazy to cook rice and pasta. (Yesterday I burnt rice ._. it was really stupid of me.)
My brother's favorite cookies are oatmeal raisin and I don't mind making them for him, oatmeal raisin is much more healthier than chocolate chip anyway.

Why thank you! And yes, it is. It was a hard way, though.. stayed in the hospital a lot of times just to gain weight .-. Oh maaan.
I also like it to make cupcakes if I'm craving for something sweet - and hell, my sister is a real cupcake-addict. She could eat over 4584357889345894583 cupcakes and she wouldn't complain.
I used to eat oatmeal raisin cookies back then when I was like 15.. they were my favorite cookies. Need to make them again, though.. :3

My worst dish was the time I was 12 I accidentally added dropped the bottle of soy sauce in one of my dish and my family had to eat something else for dinner, ouch but that was years ago thankfully.
For my best dish I can say I can make really good spaghetti. (´・ω・`) My Italian grandmother taught me to make the sauce from scratch too but I only do it when I have the time or am not lazy.

I've burned spaghetti hoops, baked beans, milk, toast, and leeks. Thankfully not on the same day, though...
My worst dish was fish fingers and waffles. The fish fingers were brittle to the point where they fell through the grill (and yes, that *is* possible), and I think the middles of the waffles were frozen, despite having been cooking for half an hour. That may also have been 'burnt baked beans' day.
My best dish is this tuna pasta salad I made when my parents were both stuck in traffic. That was epic, and I now like to think of myself as the Salad Master
I'm afraid I never inherited the gene which allows for side-splittingly witty signatures.

*giggles* No, they're just tiny crustless sandwiches with simple ingredients like jam, or cucumbers, or cheese. They're simple so they won't distract from the taste of tea.
I'm no expert on this, I first found out about tea sanwiches when I read a volume of Kitchen Princess.

Well, first off, my favorite drink is lemonade. One time when I was at a restaurant with my relatives my aunt got upset at me for downing 3 glasses of strawberry lemonade. So yeah, lemonade is basically my alcohol.
And one day when I was staring at the recipes from Kitchen Princess, I stumbled onto a recipe for hot lemonade. And my first reaction was, "hot...lemonade? Lemonade can be hot?"
I kind of want to try and make some today...especially since I heard it's good for the throat.

I made some today...and it was so bitter that I couldn't take it. It reminded me of the time I accidently drank unsweetened tea...but even though I failed, I managed to make something better for lunch.

Spoiler: Team ABEARICA (inspired by old cartoons)
(They are meant to be polar bears but some of the ears ain't clear) Made with white chocolate ears.Spoiler: The Majestic Moose
Spoiler: "Insert Witty Title" Cake
Also I'd like some help from my friends across the pond or just someone wise about it.
For Valentines Day I want to make some little 'love heart' cupcakes.
Spoiler: They Look like this
Though my recipe book is from America so some of the ingredients it recommends I'm not entirely sure of.
It recommends 3 Frozen Pound Cakes (Sara Lee Brand) though I've never really heard of what a 'pound cake' is. I assumed it's just some....pre-prepared sponge or something like that but I've had trouble trying to source ingredients before so if you guys can clarify what a pound cake is or suggest an alternative ingredient it'd be a big help.

Your efforts at baking are awesome, especially the moose buns, so cute!
I used to be so good at baking but my efforts at Christmas were absolute shite. I made something like this but the pumpkin part was star shaped chocolate sponge and the outside was cinnamon and vanilla sponge. My aunty and grandma said it was nice but I thought it was horrible.

I had to find out about pound cakes when I was baking at Christmas, it's literally just a cake make with 1lb each of flour, eggs, sugar and butter. This apparently makes a massive cake though so you would just change the amounts depending on how big you want the cake to be. I think I didn't bother in the end and just made a normal sponge. You'd probably be ok with that though, you can never have too many cupcakes.

Huh that's weird Pound Cakes. I mean based on the book I'm certain the pound cakes are just to be cut up and iced to sit on top of the cupcakes as the love hearts (shouldn't be hard to find a heart-shaped cutter at Valentines) but I wonder if they can be bought like the book says, course I don't mind making them myself but it's just another thing that could go wrong since I'd never made pound cakes before XD.
Though that bake looks awesome! I really want to try and branch out my baking outside of cupcakes (part of the reason I made the tiered cake) but I want to try tarts and how did you get that cool star-shape IN the bake?
Also the Moose ones were the best success yet, I've also tried making cupcakes that look like latticed cherry pies and apples but they didn't come out half as well as the Moose did. Though Twinkies are bloody expensive here XP
