Random fish #487

I am Random Fish #487. I eat food. Pickles. And squash. Oh my god, spaghetti squash is good.S P A G H E T T I S Q U A S H.- cut into two halves. as un-symmetrical as possible. you can't go wrong with knives and the inability to use them. :D- fill a tray with water, depending on how big the tray is, fill it 1/6 of the way with water after placing both halves of squash in; face up, with it's guts staring at you.- place in a microwave for appoximately, exactly 34 seconds or longer, depending on your machineries efficiency. you're looking to make the insides uber soft. maybe read the next step before continuing.- grab a nice fork to scrape the insides to where they are loosened off the "shell" of the squash. scraping should resolving bits coming off in strings, like spaghetti (geddit?). do this as much as you can, like eating as much watermelon until you reach the tasteless, white bit.- leave the contents in the squash, or dump them in a bowl. i leave them in the squash because i don't need to clean more.- add salts and pepper after you add some butter. stir. now its like mashed potatoes with a whole lot more work (or less, never made mash potatoes).GOOD WITH STEAMED CARROTS. BUT NOT PEAS. DO NOT ADD PEAS.

Soup

So I've been thinking lately that there isn't enough soup in my life and I don't know how to fix it. There aren't really any good restaurants that specialize in soup, and soup alone. Well, actually I guess that's not true, there is one. Recently they opened a SoupMan in the GMP (Grand Market Place) at my school, but the prices are crazy so I haven't been yet.Strangely enough, I don't think I've ever actually ordered soup at a resturant before, either. It's starting to look like this dearth of soup is entirely my own fault, but that just can't be true. It seems like my life used to be full of soups, all kinds of exotic soups, and this is true (for it was full of rich exotic soups!) but where have they all gone?It's quite simple, I got these soups when I lived at home. Now that I'm out in the real world I miss the comfort of homemade soup. Soup that's been cooking on the stove all day so the chunks of vegetables melt away in your mouth. Soup that's chock full of spices and ingredients specialized for my consumption to deliver the taste that I prefer. I miss that.Which I guess means I need to learn how to cook. I used to think that I could cook, I mean I've taken cooking lessons and everything, but now that I'm living out on my own I find that I lean more towards convenience than comfort, and tend to favor things that can be hearted up verses prepared. Why is this?I can think of a couple reasons. It's scary, to buy all of these ingredients and try to chop them up and cook them just right, and add just the right seasonings, etc, only to find out at the end of your labor that it's uneatable. It's terrifying to think of all that wasted money spent preparing something that you can't even eat. It's also a chore to cook for yourself, it just seems much more economical to prepare food that's already designed to be eaten alone.But is the convenience worth the cost? I'm not sure.
