Yay!
Mac and Cheese! Childhood favorite! Interesting how I haven't made any until day, and I'm 21.
Here's how it went:
Reading instructions... Notice about how after 4.5-5 minutes in the microwave, the bowl will be very hot. I noticed this because I have no heat tolerance, and am like a little girl (who hasn't spent time in a kitchen.)
Begin preparing macaronis. Pour out 1 bag into bowl.
SUDDENLY BECOME ENRAGED WITH SERVING SIZE!
Pretty sure I said, "My ass could eat one serving of this!"
Proceed to pour in second serving.
Still ruminating on how they have child like proportions. Realize it's mac and cheese. Get more mad.
"It's like they DON'T want kids to get fat these days!" Seriously, the servings are bird food.
Scour kitchen for a measuring cup.
Did I already know that 1 cup = 8 fl. ounces? Nope. Did I find out? Yep. Did I get mad about that too?
You know it!
Pour water into bowl.
Put into meecrowav. On high, 2.5 minutes, because it said 5.
Remove bowl.
BURN THE LIVING FUCK OUT OF MY FINGERS. WTF. WTF?!
You think warning me about the heat of the bowl is going to stop ME from burning MY fingers? Fuck you Mac and Cheese box.
Let it cool down.
Open "cheese" bag 1.
Haha, this cheese is a powder. Why is this cheese a powder? Shrug. Pour in, mix.
Open "cheese" bag 2.
This cheese is also a powder. Pour, mix.
Eat.
Yummy!
And the most important note: I was finishing off a bottle of red wine while doing this. I feel like this is the reason they don't let kids drink, aside from physiological things. Red wine and Mac and Cheese. I am the biggest 8 year old on the block.
No seriously, I probably am.
