Whoops, I totally missed the side dish theme! Which is probably just as well since I struggle to even put together a main course. Anyway, I have a corn-inclusive recipe that I LOVE and haven't made in a while, so I'll have to get in on this next one.

[Emily Whalers]

I didn't get a pic of mine... next time! I'm glad you got yours in!!

Aww, too bad! Thanks for keeping the thread open for me, too.

Gryffindork, can't wait to see what your corn dish looks like! And I'm sure you can pull together a nice main dish whenever you can. You're still alive, so I'm sure you're keeping yourself fed somehow.

Now I guess I have to come up with a corn dish of my own...

For the pumpkin round, can pumpkin shaped count?? Nobody likes/eats pumpkin in my house, but I've had a great idea for some pumpkin shaped things! No worries if not, but I thought I'd ask before I disqualify myself XD

[ZaleISBI]

Definitely! Pumpkin shape it up!

[DSLady]

I just noticed the closing date on the last round after posting my entry, but I assume I'm okay because it hadn't been locked yet!? If I'm wrong just let me know - sorry!!

[ZaleISBI]

You're totally right - it's open until I close it! You're in

[Heather]

Finally, another round I can show off my mediocre cooking skills in.

[Emily Whalers]

Will we be getting a new round soon? I completely understand if this isn't a priority right now, thanks to Real Life™, but I thought I'd ask.

[ZaleISBI]

I'm doing it right now! And I think you'll like it!

[Gryffindork]

I am a HUGE fan of this next round. And I'm either going to be really creative or really lazy... we shall see soon enough.

[Emily Whalers]

Awesome! Sadly I haven't been eating much toast lately - I've been on an oatmeal and smoothie kick - but I'll figure out something. I'm also not sure whether I should do fancy or lazy. I might be baking some bread on Sunday night so I might do lazy with fancy bread.

[ZaleISBI]

All I know, is there is not NEARLY enough toast over on my toast challenge.

[Gryffindork]

Okay, I'll go the "really lazy" route and change that this afternoon.

[Rosanna]

I've been eating avocado toast every single day but keep forgetting to get a photo

[Emily Whalers]

Ah, I'm so sorry for not toast posting yet! I'll post something this afternoon, after I wake up. (Night shift, yo.)

[ZaleISBI]

YAY! 3 beautiful toasts!

Oh Sam - your poor little hearts. I can't believe you ate the blackened crusts as punishment.
DSLady! I LOL'd at "could well, toast." - definitely counts.
And Emily - I love your little spread there! Very nice. That apple is tiny. Cute tiny apple.

[Emily Whalers]

I'm glad you liked my toast spread, ZaleISBI! I am seriously missing the pecan pie almond butter - it came in a vegan sample snack box that my boyfriend got me for Christmas and I don't know if I can get it in Canada otherwise. That apple came from a giant bag of apples, and I still have some of those apples left over two weeks later, but I don't know if they're still good.

I've been on a huge toast kick this week thanks to avocado toast, despite already submitting my entry for this round. I bought a bag of 6 avocados, and I expected my boyfriend to help me eat them only for him to inform that he doesn't like avocados when they're not in guacamole. He makes amazing guac, but he's made multiple batches of it over the past few weeks so he took a break and I've been eating tons of avocado toast and sandwiches with avocado and tacos with avocado as a result. My favourite combo has been avocado, mashed navy beans, nutritional yeast, and hot sauce, which seems infinitely more impressive than my actual entry, but whatever. It's fine!

Also, mojot89, your toast looks lovely! It seems perfectly toasted and not burnt at all! Though maybe I'm just a weirdo who likes darker toast.

I know I don't speak much on this thread (because I can't cook ) but I've come here for inspiration/recipes a lot so far. Thanks Boolprop Chef for helping this university student choose what to try to cook for dinner

[DSLady]

Does a picture of my boyfriend's cooking count for this round?? I understand if not, as it's not technically takeaway or delivery, but it is somebody else's cooking as I think the closest I come to actually doing anything to help is that I once chopped a carrot!
I usually just give encouragement from the doorway, as I am a horrible cook who once managed to set her oven grill and the toastie inside it on fire. I do the washing up, as penance for not helping.

[ZaleISBI]

Sure! It totally counts.
