I do this when I'm making pasta sauce.
Isn't pasta better with tomatoes in it?
Depends on the sauce.
Sometimes I take tomato sauce and add in stuff(like cheese).
Other times I make a cheese or cream sauce from scratch and that's where most of my 'throw it together and hope I didn't use to much or to little of something' comes into play.

This is the approach to pretty much all Chinese cooking ever. I can't count the number of times I ask my mom "how do I make this thing" and her response is basically "toss some amount of all these things in, good luck!"

Right? You can't even watch them make things to learn, either, because they just throw "just about enough" of all of the ingredients in. I feel like it's an art that's perfected over time.

It wasn't bad, maybe a touch too sweet, but I had it with eggs and I don't like sweet eggs. Probably have some of the leftover meat with noodles tomorrow, see how that tastes. I'm probably being too conservative with what I throw in, lol.
If you see me posting nonsense, give me a smack and tell me to go write.
So the computer I bought in October is having to be sent in for repairs. Thankfully it's under warranty. Of course this means I have to deal with the dinosaur backup. At least I have a backup. Apparently the video card has been causing BSOD for a lot of people.

I'm a technician for classes that are shown over multiple campuses and this professor I'm proctoring with right now is my absolute favorite professor. I've never had him, but he helped me spell/grammar check my research paper last semester and he is so funny.
