I spent 6 months and $1500 to completely make a sandwich from scratch. Including growing my own vegetables, making my own salt from ocean water, milking a cow to make cheese, grinding my own flour from wheat, collecting my own honey, and killing a chicken myself.

  1. Measure twice.

  2. Cut once.

  3. Curse profusely.

  4. Buy more.

  5. Repeat.

One of my favorite recipes comes from a user on Reddit … they have made many like this … I should try writing one

“Once I was in Cleveland for a bachelor’s party, and I got super drunk and actually lost my shirt at a strip club (not a metaphor). When we went back to my friend’s place, he said I needed to move my car by 4 a.m. for the street cleaner or it would get a ticket. Well, it was about 4:15 and my car didn’t have a ticket yet, but I had left my keys in my peppers. So was drunkenly trying to put in the door code when I saw the ticket guy drive up and start ticketing another car. Since I was so drunk, and the ticket guy was like shredded cheddar cheese, I wasn’t sure I should get in my car or not, plus I really wanted to puke. So I cut the peppers lengthwise, and the guy comes up to me and says I need to move my car or combine cream cheese, cheddar cheese and worcestershire sauce. Right then, I start puking one heaping teaspooon of cheese mixture on each pepper. Sprinkle with bacon and paprika. Place peppers on baking sheet and bake at 400F for 5 minutes or until cheese is melted.”

This is a rule. Kinda like the rule that says you will finish the costume/outfit on the way to the event.

If you finish during, you can at least have some shelter while you do it.
