Okay flist, I must request some more from you! Tonight I would like some ~recipes!~

Got a good recipe? Please tell me it! Your favorite dish, old family recipe, whatever you can think of. Specifically,
- Something for dinner
- For three people
- That is relatively easy to cook, as I am a totally inept cook. I don't know how to do a lot of basic stuff, because I fail. >>
- Something that will work for a picky eater (me)

Thank you and thank you in advance! ♥


Goodbye, Lenin!
It's kind of funny, because I seem to remember this movie being advertised as a comedy, when really it's anything but. It had some funny moments...in particular them rolling out the Coca-Cola banner during Alex's birthday speech, and Alex's western friend getting excited about creating fake propaganda. (Also half of Lenin's dismantled statue sailing by was good.) But mostly it's a poignant and kind of sad look at both family and government. And in this film, family and government both fall into similar roles...they are both sustained by lies as much as lies cause them to crumble. But there is also sentiment both in family and in government, no matter how broken the "system" may be. By Alex trying to keep his mother from dying, he inadvertently also ends up trying to keep communism from dying, and while he fails in both cases, he comes close enough.

...Also, I just realized that this is the second movie on my list that was about Germany during the East/West German divide and in German. \o_O/

Okay, I call these my ghetto meat pies, cause it cheats on the recipe. You need hamburger meat, some type of gravy-- (I use cream of mushroom by myself, but if I cook for my friend, something non-mushroom-y. Can be tomato sauce, brown gravy, whatever is your fancy.) Onions for flavor. Crescent rolls.

You brown the meat until it's all the way cooked, brown the onions with it, flavor it the way you want. Mix it up with the gravy choice and then spoon them into the flattened rolls. Roll 'em up again and sort of seal the edges. Use about a spoonful to two spoonfuls of the mixture. Stick them in the oven for the amount of time it takes your rolls to cook and voila! Food! :D

:D My friends really like when I make them, if that's any indication of the taste? *laughs*
