I mulled the wine last night. It was definitely a fun process.

Hot/warm wine is weird. I don't know if I like it. Maybe if it was a bit colder in my house.

After the wine got a bit closer to room temperature it was better, and definitely tasted better than it did pre-mulling, but I didn't like the Cabernet that much to start with. I think I'll try again with something sweeter like a port.

You have to put enough sugar in it to make it properly sweet. But yeah, you can also try a sweeter wine. Let us know how it turns out; I've always used cabernet because that's what everyone says you should use, but otherwise I don't drink wine at all. It all tastes the same to me (gross).

Aaaaah, you're making Glühwein! I kept wondering what mulled wine was...
Here you can get it at the Christmas markets during wintertime - directly in front of my old school there was one, so we could sneak out and have a cup during our five-minute breaks. It made my physics teacher almost bearable!

Damn, it's "Glühwein" in German? Because in Russian, it's "глинтвейн"(Glintwein) and I always thought it was a loanword from German.

Probably one of the many things that Peter the Great imported, eh? It translates as 'glowing' (glow as in embers) wine, but I like to let it cool a bit :D

A bit late

I ended up cooking two strips of chicken with onions. Seasoned with salt, pepper, and garlic salt.
Microwaved a can of Campbell's fiesta nacho cheese stuff. Chopped up the chicken and added the chicken and carmalized onions to the nacho cheese soup thingy and then added crushed totilla chips to that, mixed it up and ate it.


Quite delicious actually

Raw chicken?

Put a couple eggs in a bowl and whisk them. Put the bisquick in a bowl and mix in a bit of salt, pepper, and any spices you might have that are good with meat. Put parchment paper on a baking sheet.

Dunk a piece of chicken in the egg, coating it as thoroughly as you can. Then cover it in the bisquick and set it on the baking sheet. Repeat with as much chicken as you want, then bake at 350-400F (higher=crispier) until the chicken is done and the breading has browned a bit.

This will probably result in breaded chicken. I don't think bisquick would do anything weird. It might be particularly fluffy breading.


This works better if you flour the chicken beforehand. It gives a surface for the egg to stick to, and gives more even breading. Or so my mother says or whatever.

Verifying this. Flour, then egg, then breading and spices, then oven, then eat.

Mom made a dessert dip thingy today

Mix peanut butter and cream cheese (one of those like 4' by 1.5' blocks and about the same amount of penut butter)
Add a cup of powdered sugar and mix in
A cup (maybe less) of oat meal, a small bag of mini chocolate chips, and a small bag of mini m&ms. Mix it all together and you get a pretty good tasting paste-ey dip thing
Graham crackers, pretzels, apples, etc for dipping

I tried putting (ground) ginger on a peanut butter sandwich. I don't think I put enough since I couldn't really taste it. But then, I was trying not to put so much to overpower it.
