Dorms

<p>I’m a horrible chef. If I leave any of my homemade meals in the fridge, my dormmates might get food poisoning:(</p>

22

<p>I love to cook (healthy and unhealthy), so I hope they have something in my dorm more than a fridge and microwave. However, there’s a lot you can do with a microwave (microwave cakes, popcorn, dip, potatoes, frozen meals, etc.) so even that would be satisfactory. </p>

23

<p>I would feel so confined with only I microwave. I’d be able to make oatmeal (just rolled oats) and boil water. Oh, and air-popped popcorn. That’s it, unless I could make my own frozen meals at home.</p>

<p>I don’t like preservatives.</p>

24

<p>I tried a yummy single-serving chocolate cake that was made in the microwave one time. Just some cocoa, milk, flour, sugar, maybe some other stuff in a mug and microwaved.</p>

25

<p>I’ve done those! chocolatecoveredkatie.com has some great mug cake recipes! (And other recipes, for that matter.)</p>

Great microwave snacks.</p>

<p>St. Paul’s has full kitchens. A student was making muffins while she was between classes on our tour and gave one to our DD.</p>

28

<p>So jealous! That will be me some day.</p>

29

<p>Me too, hopefully.</p>

30

<p>I don’t cook. Except for ramen noodles.</p>

31

<p>@mrnephew I cook, but for I’m going to cook at boarding school (for my dormmates’ benefit).</p>

32

<p>My dormmates are going to benefit by a gigantic stockpile of chips and cookies and sierra mist that’s stored in my closet with a padlock on it. :)</p>

33

<p>The summer before I end up living in a dorm, I’m going to ask for a gazillion Lärabars for my birthday. </p>

<p>And an industrial safe. </p>

34

<p>Kids, might I suggest that if you loosen your hold on your food a bit, you might just make a few extra friends. CK is the most popular kid in the dorm when I send care packages. Just sayin’ ;)</p>

35

<p>Food=friends. :wink: </p>

36

<p>I will loosen, just a little. So I’ll just lock my room, no padlock. :)</p>

37

<p>:P </p>

38

<p>A bite of my Lärabar once a term? Will that do it?</p>

<p>I’m going to be very lonely.</p>

39

<p>

</p>

<p>oops I meant *I’m NOT going to cook for my dormmates’ benefit</p>

40

<p>Huh, that’s interesting. I wonder if I could make a bunch of ramen and that would get me friends. ;)</p>
