kitchen extravaganza. Wow, it's been a while. I thought I might inaugurate my return to photography by flooding the interwaves with evidence of my cookery. Don't you wish you were there to have eaten some of it?


What's a trip to the kitchen without a little vodka?


And why stop at vodka? I took this one at my desk, while writing, but still.


I started (yesterday) with an easy one: banana bread. As of breakfast this morning, it was still delicious.


The set-up. A little music (Andrew Bird, at this point) was essential.


Mmmmm. Chocolate chip cookie batter. Without the chocolate chips. Or, apparently, the flour, at this point.


Dual-level baking! Can you believe your eyes?!?!?!


The lucky ones got eaten before they were baked.


This approaches pornographic proportions.


And, yet again, despite my best abilities (and following the EXACT. SAME. RECIPE. my roommate did a week ago, with fluffier results) I prove that I am my parents' child, having inherited The Curse of the Flat Cookies. Yes, they're delicious, but I still hang my head in shame.


Now on to dinner. I'm getting quite good at making pizza dough, if I do say so myself. And I do, repeatedly.


Roasting tomatoes and garlic, together at the same time. Later I put in some corn.


Carmelizing the onions.


I'm getting hungry just thinking about this now.

And that's the whirlwind tour through the kitchen! Back soon for more photos.
