I started early with my NYE resolution lol. I... cooked something today. And it was delicious!!! I love eating vegetables, but my roomies don't so they don't always cook veggies for me so I had to woman up and do it myself. I downloaded this app called Cook's Illustrated. And they have free recipes with videos and useful features like shopping list, cooking timer, etc. I found a recipe that looked so appealing, it's called Sautéed Green Beans with Garlic and Herbs. So I went to the grocery and bought all ingredients (It was exciting!). I learned today that there are so many spices and herbs that exist, not just salt and pepper lel. I went looking for this thing called Thyme (Scarborough Fair lol). I didn't even know what it looked like! But the folks working at the store were kind enough to let me know they didn't sell that. So... I googled a substitute. Google said, I could use Basil. And I had that at home. So I used Basil instead. I don't know what I'm missing by not using Thyme leaves but I really liked it! For a beginner I will rate myself 10/10. For cooking and effort combined teehee.
