Guest Chef Erica Ferencik: Personal Cuisine
"Here's the sitch...
...I starve when my husband is away on business....he's been MIA for a few days signing up a deal in...oh well, forgot where he went exactly... I don’t need food, I’m robowoman. I refuse to even open a can Iwon’tIwon’tIwon’t.
Anyhoo, things are getting a bit dire. Time to ask myself: is the celery and cool whip gone? Is the French Bread history? Too wiped out to do the whole "Tuna on Bread" thing?
...so I have Cool Whip and Celery for dinner.... 
Recipe:
Cool Whip and Celery
Buy these things in the store.
Eat them together.
Or Macaroni and Cheese, Right Out of the Box. I don’t cook it. It’s kind of a TV snack, except the powdered cheese does get all over everything. The crunch of raw pasta and strange creaminess of powdered cheese mixed with my own saliva always brings me right out of that "he's supposed to be home by now" funk. 
Recipe:
Mac and Cheese "Right From the Box"
A box of macaroni and cheese, also from the store.
Open box, eat contents.
When he comes back I have rickets and my hair is falling out, however my cute pout helps soften the blow of my failing looks. He makes me a chicken pot pie and all is well again. *sigh*
Bonus: MORE of the most popular Recipes "a la Erica"...!
Recipe:
Chicken in a Pan
Take chicken, put it in a pan.
Bake it I guess.
Recipe:
Tuna on Bread
Take tuna out of can.
Put it on bread.
Recipe:
Rotten Fruit From My Car
Go to car.
Find fruit and eat .
Recipe:
Bad Day At the Office (En Croute)
Box of croutons.
Sixpack.
You know what to do.
Bon appetit!

It's been a particularly crazy week so far. Thanks to both of you for putting a smile on my face.

Love the crouton recipe. Have you tried dipping them? Does it work with Old Milwaukee? So many options.

Oh, my god.
I'm both delighted and horrified...is that normal?

I just vomited all over my keyboard. I suppose you'll turn that into your next recipe, somehow. Thanks a lot!

Hmmm... So many options from which to choose. Where do I start? CoolWhip and celery? I like. I guess I'll start there and work my way down. ;-)
