Goodbye Stratton Hello Chinese food

This weekend marked the end of ski season up at Stratton. I've had a pass there for a three years now and it has been a bit of a love-hate relationship. With graduation coming quickly and ambiguity of the plans after that, it'll probably be a while before I get back.

Last year Jeff, Scott D, and myself started a tradition where on the last day of the season we all actually spent money on the WaffleHaus waffles at the base. Normally we're dirt bags and bring PB&J and granola bars, but on the last day of the season, you've gotta go huge and after being taunted by the waffle smell all year long, it's about time.

Sadly, the WaffleHaus wasn't even open this weekend! Tragedy ensued until we realized that the tradition was only 1 year old anyway. Fagetaboutit.

Instead we went for some cheeseburgers and brews. Goodbye Stratton, it's been rad.



On Sunday I decided I should take up a culinary adventure. I know how to cook stereotypical staple meals from a bunch of different cultures: Spaghetti, Burgers, Tacos, etc. But I haven't really learned how to cook anything Asian. I decided to get after some sesame chicken (it looked more or less the easiest). I was pretty stoked when I discovered the 1.5 lbs of chicken I cooked would require half a cup of sugar. That's a lot of sugar.



It turned out really well, and I'll definitely be cooking it again. I forgot pineapples and cashews so maybe those will get thrown in next time.

Have a good one!
