Dorm Food: Take 2

It's always only good for the 1st week. 

I don't care if there are other people washing the dishes and I could have pizza every day, 

I would do terrible terrible things for a meal that didn't consist of the standard hot dogs/waffle fries/cereal cafeteria options. 

I would also do terrible terrible things for a hot plate. I miss cooking. 

I'm dreaming of these. 

Music land:

Still working on Gershwin, but now electronica Gershwin by Sarah Vaughan. It's weird, but I kind of dig it. 

Food Klepto

A quick lesson in how to steal dorm food:

1. Invest in ziplock bags and tupperwear.
2. Carry a bag that is easy to access, preferably a sling, or a large backpack. Depending on the items.
3. Collect the food on a plate, then transfer to container while at table.
4. Be cool.


Fruit is the easiest.
I've been making trail mix with dried bananas, walnuts, raisins and granola.
Vegetables are pretty easy too.

I'm going to graduate to warm food this week.
And perhaps ice cream.


I've also accepted a challenge:
To steal an entire tray of mashed potatoes, in one meal sitting, through the use of ziplock bags.

I'll keep you posted.
Or call you if I need someone to post bail.

Dorm Trail Mix- my down fall. 

Music wise- I've been listening to a lot of Gershwin, for my composition. Also some Old Crow Medicine Show (also for the composition, but that's all I can reveal, until we perform on Wednesday).

Grown up Dorm Food?

For the next month, I'll be on the Skidmore College campus in Saratoga Springs NY, taking part in the SITI Company Summer Theatre Workshop. It's intense, but I'm so excited to live, breath and sleep theatre, train with some amazing people and solely do art for one month.

So what does this mean for KDP?
I'm still going to blog, but it'll be my dorm food creations. I'll be living on the campus and eating dorm food for the 1st time in over 6 years.
Last time I was here, I survived on ramen.
I'd like to think that I've grown up enough to avoid the ramen route (plus, I still can't even look at it without feeling sick), but there is a solid chance that chick pea salads will fill the ramen's shoes.
I'm going to blog about the Frankenstein dorm dishes that I throw together, any good scones I find and I'm keeping up to date with music, so keep an eye out for that.

And Mags and Val (and other contributors) will have to step it up on the home made food part. I'm not allowed a hot plate.


Music Arena:
I just went through a music buying binge.
I'm really into Danger Mouse and Daniele Luppi's "Rome" with Jack White, Norah Jones and some of the musicians who recorded Ennio Morricone's  film scores. It's been a long time coming, but totally worth the wait. "Timeless" is a really good word for it.
