Back to work..

It's Saturday already! This week flew by! I had yesterday off, and that only seemed to last about an hour. Also, today is my date of hire at HCNH. I never thought I'd see 9 years!
Christmas was awesome, thank you all, your thank you cards are in the mail =-D.
My parents got me the DS game coach cooking. So today I decided to break it in a bit. I made my first souffles (a set of 2). They are supposed to be cheese, but I couldn't find the right type of cheese, so I settled on blue cheese (it looked just like the picture). It took a few minutes to get a grip on what the little chef dude meant, but I think I did very well. They expect you to whisk the whites by hand...until stiff...so my arm is now killing me! I was very good and did not open the oven door once while they were cooking. They do put lights and a window on the oven door, so I viewed the progress from there!
When I had a few minutes until they were done, I made a meterrainian salad ( I cheated and bought a salad kit for that!) and then put half the salad on each plate and the souffle on the other. Greg seems to like it.
I'm itching to try out the crockpot! I was thinking of making either pulled pork or baked beans in it. I'll probably make the beans, because I'm pretty used to that recipe, I've been making them since I was 15.
I hope everyone had a great Christmas! And have a good week!
