 I didn't think about this until finishing the last sandwich, but a dash of
 instant coffee can be a nice invigoration spell. Might make the PB&J taste
 a bit funky, but I already put hemp hearts and nutritional yeast in them so
 nobody's gonna eat them unless they trust me.

 I don't know why, but I like to put mustard seeds in my pasta marinara. Maybe
 it's a texture thing?

 listed them in tab-separated-rows-by-columns like excel spreadsheets except
 with justifications for everything has its place in the ingredient dish.

 the broth they sell at the store is way too thin. boullion is much better
 because it's so concentrated. think of it as "essence of X" when you have
 "broth of vegetables" or "broth of carrots and onions" or whatever... can help
 make it easier to cook something decent by using general flavors

 I never should have bought these crackers. They trick me into thinking I'm
 eating something nutritious.
 
 But that's the case with any empty calories.
 
 but hey, calories are calories, right?
 
 I guess that's true. Still, I'd rather make something.
 
 oh would you now would you REALLY rather MAKE something
 
 ... I should rather.

 ... dangit, these sandwiches are getting kinda gross. Guess I'm gonna have to
 eat them myself, which, uh... idk what I expected xD
 
 sometimes you just have all this energy, right? and you don't know what to do
 with it, so... sandwiches. And hey, sandwiches are cool, they're a pretty neat
 anti-hunger tool! but uhhhh idk if I really want to eat six whole sandwiches
 myself. I'm gonna do it though hehe wish me luck [ding] ah nuts my rice and
 beans are done, hang on lemme eat those first

 when eating a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, always make sure the jelly
 side is facing you before biting.
 
 that way, you have sweet jelly on your tongue before the sticky peanut butter
 overrides your tastebuds

 a box of tri-color rotini
 
 a good spoonfull of better than boullion italian
 
 a medium amount of large colby-jack cheese cubes (about one for every other
 bite)
 
 boil with just enough water for the noodles to start sticking to the pan once
 entirely cooked and add cheese, butter, and top with generous dashes of smoked
 paprika and lime juice.
 
 don't strain the noodles. have just enough water left to have a thin sauce.
 
 if vegetables are desired, firm carrots and peas (read: frozen or fresh, not
 canned) or diced/shredded onions.

 Good point it's sooooooo salty
 
 I have fond memories of eating a spoonful of that instead of making food back
 in college because... hey, it's got vegetables in it, right?
 
 turns out it's mostly just salt with flavor

 if you're cooking, and you want a specific ingredient to have a stronger
 flavor, use more of it.
