Well, I've officially moved from under the roof of my parents into my own abode.
A lot of things have happened this year: Destry(Cowboy.4.Christ) got married, Caleb(Sparx00) went to Tijuana, Mexico for a mission trip, and I myself got a great job at Wal-Mart and my own apartment that has free cable! Also the landlord go to the same church I do, so thats a +!
God has been good.

I just moved into my own apartment too! It's exciting, isn't it?
My only issue is figuring out how to cook with an electric oven and stainless steel pots and pans.

Congratulations. It's a huge move - very different being out on your own, eh?
How are you eating?

My mother taught me about the usage of an electric oven and pots and pans.(Note: Don't leave a pot or kettle on an active burner without water. My little bro did that when making Top Ramen and it totally burnt out the bottom of the pot.) I've been surviving on Hot Pockets, Chimichangas, grilled cheese, hot dogs, PB n J, and the occasional Wal-Mart u-bake pizzas.

Heh. Your skills in the kitchen appear to be very close to mine, although I can also make Poached Eggs. Pancakes and hamburgers are very easy - being able to make toasted cheese shows you can make either of them.
You may be amazed what you can do (and how easy it is to do it) with Bisquick.

Buy the
Fannie Farmer Cookbook.
It helped me and my old roommate tremendously when we lived in the apartment. It covers everything from how to cook rice to how to boil eggs to a lot of other stuff. It is easy to understand and the recipes/instructions are simple to follow.
It'll probably help you out --you know, so you can make home-cooked meals simple and easy.

Yeah. It was my brother who went down there, and yes it was Global Expeditions. No doubt that it was 07/26 - 08/02. He goes with Church of the Nazarene in Colville, Wa. The same church I go to.

That's cool that you got your own place. I've got a trailer to myself now, it's neat. I've been moved out for over a year now but this is my first place that I've had to myself.
As far as cooking, well, I've always been good at it. (I even thought about going to culinary school for a while.) Though only problem is having the money and actually taking the time to cook something nice.
