I love being a grown-up
May. 12th, 2003 12:11 amI'm eating Jell-o chocolate pudding. A HUGE bowl of it, the whole box. *smug grin*
Of course, making it was quite the task. I measured out the milk, poured in the mix, and then remembered that mom threw out our whisk. It died.
So I went and got mom, and she showed me how to use the electric hand mixer. (I KNOW! I live off my mother's cooking and Kraft Dinner, okay?)
Ah, the trials and tribulations of trying to work an electric hand mixer. After mom left, I thought I had a pretty good handle on the thing... But I managed to hit the release button for the beaters, because I thought that was what turned it on. So, CLUNK-CLUNK, there go the beaters into the sink. And putting them back in...
Well, suffice it to say I don't want to deal with an electric hand mixer again for a while. But I have my pudding! And, unlike those times when my mom used to make pudding when I was a kid, I got to lick BOTH beaters, and not just one. My sister's in bed.
*licks*

Hehe, that's such the perfect icon for that comment. Anyway, "typical guy" is apparently not a good thing, judging by the way my mother says it when she calls me that.

Date: 2003-05-14 04:33 pm (UTC)You REALLY don't know what Kraft Dinner is? You're not shitting me?
Well...
It's, um, macaroni and cheese. It comes in a box. You pour out the noodles in a bowl with some water, heat it in the microwave and then throw in some butter and the cheese mix that comes with it. It takes about 10 minutes.
There's a bunch of different flavours, too. But we only get the basic cheese.
