Dad had guests over for dinner today and cooked like a billion things. None of them have translatable names so I'm just going to be very vague and not detailed today. *gives up*

2 peaches
1 magnum mini
40g left over potato and gravy
1 dinner roll
5g of Dove chocolate
1 bowl of chicken soup with stuff in it (not chicken)
3 tablespoons of corn and pineseed salad thing
2 leaves of chinese cabbage
Several pieces of sliced tofu thing
4 pieces of roast duck
40g of crab noodles
2 pieces of pork with lobster caviar
2 prawns
half a bowl of rice
3 glasses of orange juice
1 slice of watermelon

So that ends my 7 day experiment of writing down everything I eat. It was... really tiring. I had to google half the stuff in Chinese to learn their English names.

It's helped me appreciate my dad's obsession with food a little more. He never shuts up about food, and he's forever inviting random people to our house for dinners, which drives me nuts, but... he's the Provider of Teh Nom, so I can't really complain (much). Yesterday I actually watched him cook and jotted down the recipes of two dishes. And thus begins Operation Learn to Cook: Phase 1. I'll be posting recipes on here, mostly privated at first so they don't overwhelm peoples' flists, but I'll unlock them after a while and they can be found under the tag "Recipes", if anyone's curious.
