cooking with Chad Delp

so today i had a  hodgepodge of veggies and noodles..so I decided to make a different pasta salad

first i cooked the pasta..i mixed two different kinds..because it is a fun cooking day

because I dont waste time. while pasta was cooking i took the red peppers, orange and green peppers and chopped them up

then chopped up onions as well(there is no crying in my kitchen..unless you get a paper cut)
got out some other items I would need as well

I then used my Olive oil and sauteed the chopped veggies

after all the cooking. i let everything cool down before mixing

I added chopped tomatoes, cheese cubes, olives, Garlic powder, Italian seasoning, more olive oil red vinaigrette and some Parmesan cheese..mixed it all together and put it in the fridge for a few hours before testing
 well I can safely say it is good..i like it. i plan on eating it

sometimes you just have to go with the flow cooking and have fun with it...it will be consumed during the big game tomorrow. if my gaming group shows up they can try it.

best things in life are

so I was sick as hell all last week and last weekend. Thanks Nerd-ebola
well i had to do manly outdoor things when I was sick as hell.
we had a snow storm coming in so stuff had to get done. I chopped wood for the fire place.

then it slowly started adding up

then finally all nice and neatly stacked

i ended up with 2 (completely split) 5 foot high, 1 foot deep and 6 foot long stacks of fire wood. i am pretty bad ass

so next
Put away all fall items and put together my snow blower and make sure it would run

then had to shovel(snow blow) the 0.25 mile drive way

so last weekend was a busy weekend
so as for my title..the best things in life are not free...they are the ones you have to work your behind off for

this weekend i went away for a mini work trip..i may post about that later
