Tried And True Pinterest Recipes
Smart Living

In my humble opinion, Pinterest is just about the best website in existence. I get to avoid responsibilities while pretending to gather information that I'll use some day. The likelihood of that actually happening? Slim to none. However, one board is beneficial enough that I try out the pins on it. This board is creatively titled "Food." Here's a few of my favorite finds (the recipes can be found by clicking on the pictures):

1. Zucchini Lasagna

Since I have a rebellious streak and don't usually follow recipes completely, I made mine the classic lasagna way, instead of making roll-ups and swapped the ricotta cheese for cottage cheese. Overall, delicious, and definitely worth the hand cramps I got from grating all that zucchini.

2. Peaches and Cream Crepes

I may or may not have totally failed at flipping said crepes and ended up with several chunks of skinny-looking pancakes, but I have a sister who saved my cooking endeavor and we ended up with several beautiful crepes. My changes: I don't even know what mascarpone cheese is, so I used cream cheese for the filling.

3. Broccoli Tots

About 50 percent of these actually stuck together, but they tasted A-maz-ing.

4. Cauliflower Quinoa Meatballs

Disclaimer: I'm a complete wimp when it comes to spicy things, so "buffalo" isn't even a word in my culinary vocabulary. Dairy free butter also did not happen. As a result, my meatballs, were more of a patty. Still good!

5. Deep Dish Fudgy Oatmeal Bars

They're as good as they look!

6. Sausage Pepper Fettuccini Skillet

I've made this one a few times now and drool a little when I think about it. It's an easy recipe to play around a bit with the ingredients, and I encourage you to do so!

7. Tomato Avocado Melt

I like to make this in more of a grilled cheese style. Then I mix some of Emril Lagasse's Baby Bam with a little may and spread it on. It has become one of my favorite college meals.

8. Lasagna Soup

Lasagna is beautiful in all forms, but you might want to make sure you rip up the noodles into the size shown in the recipe. I started out strong, but by the end I was throwing the whole noodles in. That makes it quite difficult to consume, in case you were wondering.

9. Funfetti Pancakes

These pancakes are a wise choice if you're a fan of birthday cake variations.

10. Lunch Lady Brownies

For years I have been on a hunt to find a recipe that tastes like the brownies I had in elementary school, and this is the closest I've found so far.

11. Cheeseburger Casserole

This recipe combines several of my favorite foods, so there was really no way it could be bad.

I had to exit out of Pinterest because I was becoming ravenous from looking at all the food, but I highly encourage you to try these recipes.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

Power of Love Letters

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
