The Best Foods to Cook Up

From my limited amount of cooking knowledge I give to you what I think are the best things to cook at home.

1.) Chinese food- Chinese food is definitely a full cooking project, where you cook multiple parts of the meal all at once. But it is rewarding along the way because you get to smell what you are cooking along the way. In cooking Chinese you can really make the color pop out of the vegetables and the food, so your meal will be colorful.

2.) Pancakes- Pancakes take about three minutes to whip up their dough. Then after that you can pour the dough into perfect circles out into the pan and watch as the bubbles and holes form in the dough. When the pancakes start looking like a full moon with lots of craters and all then you can flip it. After you flip it then it is just a lucky guessing fame as to when you should flip it back over, but it usually doesn't take long. Also after flipping it over the first time you have gotten a preview of what your pancake will look like.

3.) Bread- I will always try to cook bread when I get the chance in hopes of making bread that tastes like Amish bread that the Amish make, which is one food I consider heavenly. The Amish really are people who do things correctly and they are just perfect people the Amish because they strive so hard for heaven and to please God, that they make the most perfectly heavenly bread that I consider good enough for God. Amish bread is the food of the gods or actually as the would want me to say food of God. Anyways I will keep trying to cook bread until I have Amish tasting bread which I haven't achieved yet.

4.) Black Forest cake- I made this cake one year for my mom and her birthday. I remember working on it at night and the name was just the coolest I thought so I tried to make it. And it tasted so good and like a homemade cake even though it used store bought ready to make batter. Somehow and I forgot how the recipe told me to add a few extra or different ingredients to the store bought batter that made it taste better and more homemade. So anyone reading this should try the recipe and discover this secret that I can't remember for themselves. And it is a cake that has top decoration on it that adds fun to it. Black forest cake is essentially a chocolate cake with whip cream and cherries in the middle and chocolate frosting and more cherries on top along with chocolate flakes on the side or top or both!!!!!

I would totally advise these foods if someone wants to cook but they don't know what they want to cook. Also just to assure you all these foods taste great.

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
