In true me fashion...
...I'd rather be blogging than doing my final which is due by 5:00 tomorrow. I'm going to start right after I blog though.
Anyway, my first attempt at making general tso's chicken was what I would refer to as "a colossal failure", not an insurmountable failure, which is the worst form of failure possible, nor a miserable failure, which is mostly reserved for George Bush references, but colossal nonetheless.
I blame the recipe, because I followed it well. Its not that the end result was "bad" or anything, it was just different than what was expected. Its like if you send someone to the store and say "Hey, get me a diet rockstar", and they return with a sugar free full throttle. Its not that sugar free full throttle is a bad drink, its just inferior to diet rockstar in all imaginable ways.
Today was my 1 year health screening. I get to find out what good I've done for my body, but the bloodwork will take a week to get back to me, so I won't know until then. My blood pressure was kind of high this morning, but I blame that on the fact that I'm entirely too stressed out, and I was running late this morning causing me to rush and get all worked up and all that.
OK, on to that final...after I do a few more things.

Another thing that runs in our family, high blood pressure and heart disease. Good luck. And remember, all failures are good because we learn something form them. Glad to hear that you are willing to try cooking. You'll be great at it. No doubt in my mind.
