A moderately rotund bearded individual looking to get into the video game design industry. This seems a little far off, but that's what dreams are for, right?
My favorite things to cook
Definitely stir fry. Man, that stuff is so insanely quick, cheap, easy and delicious that if only it was healthier I'd probably eat it all the time forever.
My favorite family cooking traditions
The family makes a fair amount of own-brew recipes, such as the current and past champion 'cut and thrust', a moist teacake served spread with butter. This has recently been upgraded to 'nut and thrust' with the addition of hazelnuts to the mix and walnuts on top.
My cooking triumphs
Some odd experiments with my ex-housemate Damon, including the ToBaPo sandwich, a tomato, bacon and mashed potato grilled sandwich, the tacofaggot bake, taking Mr. Brain's Pork Faggots, mixing taco spices into the gravy and then covering them in mash and cheese to bake. Comes out crazy delicious.
My cooking tragedies
Far too many to list, but the most recent was thoroughly fudging a naan recipe in some way that made the dough come out of the breadmaker more akin to PVA glue than dough. Still don't know how, as I can't think where I got the measurements wrong.
