Toast
Untie bag.
Remove bread from bag.
Retie bag.
Insert bread into convenient bread-shaped slots in toaster.
Push down lever on side of toaster.
Wait while toaster magically transforms bread into toast.
When toast pops up, remove from toaster and serve with topping of choice.

I thought gay men were wizards in the kitchen. Yet another stereotype bites the dust....

I only pretend to cook well in hopes that chicks will dig it.
In truth, the kitchen hasnt been used at all except for having sex in there. And it wasnt even by me neither.

Chili,
I use dried beans. Soke them over night. This is for a big batch that I cook in a crock pot. btw, if anyone has tips for me I would be happy to get them since I'm still a beginning cook.
Ingredients
4 cups of dried beans
1 lb of ground beef
1/2 medium size onion
3 cloves of garlic
6 jalepeno peppers
36 oz tomato sauce
1 t. chilli powder
1 T. Salt
5 T. Sugar
5 T. Vinegar
3 Medium tomatoes
Boil the beans for 10 mimutes. Then simmer them for about an hour or an hour and a half. Make sure the beans are completely cooked (important). Cook the ground beef in a pan with the onion. Cut up all the other ingredients and put them in the crock pot. Cook on low for at least 5 hours, but it takes about 10 hours for all the flavor to meld together.

That, and packets of pasta are about the limits of my cooking skills. I'm much better at mixing drinks though.

Speaking of cooking, maybe you want to look into the archives. Boshko and loinburger started some.

I think lower case is teaspoon and upper case is tablespoon. Something like that.

Chili powder is powdered chilis.
Black beans must have bean good. I think they cost a little more.
Yeah, need to spice it up a bit.

Good stuff. I'm going to try some of these, especially Boris Godunov's suggestions. BTW, Boris, do you have the recipe for the icecubes?

Propaganda,
Consume the ice immediately after taking them out of the freezer. I hope this helps

Actually, that's not true. You could cook it so long the water boils away and the egg burns in the pot.
Really though, if you boil an egg too long it discolors the yolk (it gets kinda greenish). It doesn't effect the taste, however.

Another addition to Che's recipe is after you chill the eggs, put them back in the boiling water for 15-30 seconds. This expands the shell making them easier to peel.

I never have a problem peeling eggs anymore. But then, I use organic eggs.

The green colour of the yolk in an overboiled egg is just copper and other metal ions present in all those yummy yolk proteins getting oxidised due to the heat, no harm no foul.
If we're sharing recipes, here's my quick and easy chicken stirfry:
1-2 (depending on how much meat you like) deboned, deskined chicken breast fillets (you can debone and deskin them yourself but I'm lazy).
A mix of veggies. I personally like broccali, snow peas, mushrooms, sometimes peppers, bok choy (pak choy), and bean sprouts. Proportions and amounts vary according to taste and how much leftovers you want.
Oyster sauce
Soy sauce.
Chop the chicken into pieces about, oh say, the size of your thumb. Bring 300 mL, or enough to cover all the chicken, of water to a boil. Add the chicken to the boiling water. The heat of the water and the small size of the chicken pieces cooks them rather quickly.
While the water is heating up to a boil, get a wok and heat it up. Add your veggies in order of cooking time (mushrooms first cause they take longest, beansprouts last to preserve their crunch) and some soy sauce. Keep it hot and keep the veggies moving. Once the chicken is done (just take a piece out and cut it in half to check), drain the chicken and add to the wok. Put on a bit of oyster sauce and then remove from heat. Serve with rice, noodles, or steamed buns.
I've seen this technique refered to as crystal boiling in certain chinese cookbooks. The chicken should still be moist, keep its delicate taste, and be very clean tasting (no burdened down by the sauce or cooking technique).
Quick, easy, and you avoid all those nasty benzene compounds that roasting, frying, or BBQing chicken creates.
