First Home Cooked Dinner

...Well, sort of. I boiled some pasta, grilled some ground beef, and put it in some canned spaghetti sauce. Then I promptly salted the sauce to the point of toxicity. Hooray for me!



If I had prepared or planned on cooking that evening, something better might have resulted. Because I didn't, I ended up resorting to a college favorite, cheap, easy spaghetti.

Some initial observations of Down Under:

- Most food contains real sugar as opposed to HFCS. For this I am pleased. So pleased, I have decided to eat twice as much sugar.

- Within 48 hours of landing in Australia, I consumed 1.5 sleeves worth of Tim Tams and spent $200 on running shoes. I need to do some calibration.

Just a simple first blog post. I'll try and update at least once a week, letting you folks know how I'm doing. If I stop posting entirely, you can assume I've been eaten by any one of crocodile, shark, or kangaroo. Perhaps all three at once.

Love,
