The Pack-A-Pita Adventure!

Officially, this is my first post on Blog Spot, So i'd better make the best of it. When I get bored, I usually do one of three things: Eat, Sleep, or Crochet. I am almost always hungry now( My parents say its because of puberty) So what better way to kill the hunger than to cook up some tasty snacks! For my first cooking adventure, I decided to try a simple recipe for a pita bread sandwich and make cupcakes for desert. It was harder than it looked. It started out messy and ended even messier. My mom said that I had to allow my brother to help in this project, so I allowed him the task  of seasoning everything and putting some of the filling inside. He did a MUCH better job of it than I, therefore leaving me in humiliation while I watched him make part of the filling less messier than I. I even had to beg him to help me open a can of uncooperative tuna. Of course, my time came to outshine him when he had trouble chopping the scallions into fine pieces. Our next step was to boil the eggs while chopping up the romaine lettuces and my brother cooked the corn. It was simple enough, until I had to switch bowls three times because I hadn't drained the corn properly. It was a very interesting project for me and my brother. When we were finally done with our pita sandwiches, we moved on to the cupcakes. We mixed those up easily, my brother having to help me crack a couple of eggs, and then they were ready for the oven. we let those bake while we enjoyed our sandwiches. To be honest, the flavor didn't pop at me like I was expecting it to, but it was very good and filling, and I can imagine it was also very healthy since we used lots of different vegetables. The cupcakes were of course ah-mazing. They were soft and warm and tasted amazing with the cream cheese frosting and sugar chrystal sprinkles. I enjoyed the baking and the cooking today, and I plan to do some more of it this week and next week. Peace. Crochet. Love.
