It was hot as hell today, even though I’ve had an air-conditioner on throughout the entire afternoon! Since I had some leftover pasta sauce, I decided that would be my dinner. Obviously the sauce won’t do by itself! It needs some sort of additive….like bacon…

I started off with searing off some bacon on a hot pan while a pot of boiling water was blanching off the pasta. Once the bacon were crispy enough, I poured in the pasta sauce, along with some whipping cream, chinese parsley, and water. The flame by now was pretty low ‘cuz I don’t wanna burn my sauce and making it dry. Once the pasta was completely blanched, I drained them and added them into the sauce. Give them a little stir and added some parmesan cheese. Then, I adjusted the seasoning. Here’s what the final outcome look like:

Bowl of pasta+bacon+funkeh sauce

Heh, I was pretty darn hungry that time since it was indeed my first meal of the day. I gobbled it down and before I knew it…30 minutes has passed…and this was left..

Half way through

Whoa…who would’ve thought that I was having a tough time finish eating it…Guess I overestimated myself…time to do a final spurt! I took a minute burping off the excess air in my tummy. I also whooped out a can of Winter Melon Tea to wash down some remnants of the meal offa my mouth. Okay…I got this..round 2!!!

...and the winner is....

Job well done! Time to end the meal by smoking it off with a nicotin filled cigarette. Peace!

End of part 2.

Yeah, the title seems like it’s extracted straight out of the Bible but I assure you, this shall not and will not be some preaching site. You have my word. Well, let’s start off by saying that this is mainly not out of boredom (although at some point it was) but rather, a collaboration between a dear friend and myself.

I’ll try not to bore the visitors with the usual arguments and whatnot. Instead, I’ll be sharing some artwork and recipes that I’ve learned. I do have an account on http://soaprick.deviantart.com so be sure to check it often. I might alternate in posting my newly drawn images between this site and on deviantart.

Well, since I’m already ranting, let’s keep this going!

Who the hell am I?

Well,  I draw and I cook. These are but 2 passions of mine since I was little. How I was introduced to art was really retarded. Yes, I watched cartoons, read comics, and played video games. Guess those are the factors that got me into drawing. Now the funny thing is, I only can imitate other people’s style. I can’t really have a clear mind when I pick up a pen and paper to draw.

Cooking on the other hand….well…I love to eat. Yes, I admit it… I live to eat…not the other way round. Guess I was exposed to good food when I was young. Now a chef’s biggest problem is to satisfy his or herself. The worst critique will always be yourself. With all the food program on television, it’s only natural that I have some basic knowledge of cooking or working in a kitchen. I’ve actually applied for a short course in culinary cooking. Now I’m armed with at least 15 recipes of the fine-dining cuisine.

Obviously, the number doesn’t impress others much. Well, I only cook when I’m home alone. My father works on an island far far away from home and my mother goes over monthly. I could either eat out or cook myself. Those are the choices given to me. Obviously with the current recession and the hike in the prices of food, I’d rather cook for myself, learning a few things or two in the process. (Yes, I have guinea pigs! Bwahahahaha!)

Well, since this was created after Valentines day and the Chinese new year, I’ll go ahead and share 2 of my drawings that are made for the season. Enjoy!

“Hello world. Im soaprick. Nice to meet you!“
