Thank you all so much for the virtual cookies! That was a nice surprise. Of course, now I'm dying to create a recipe that'll recreate them for real. They look so yummy! LJ is being mean to me tonight... you read that right) has not been cooperating. Recently my favorite word has been Wahoo. No, I have no idea why.

What are your favorite ghettofied recipes? You know, dishes you make up on the fly when you've only got limited food in the house, and then you discover that they're actually pretty damn good. Here are mine: - Ghetto potato pancakes: Instant mashed potatoes + pancake mix (both are just-add-water) - Ghetto tuna casserole: Ramen + egg + parmesan + tuna - Spaghetto: Ramen + chili
