Exam week is drawing to an end. Sat the 3 hour GAT today and have a 3 hour English practise exam tomorrow. Like last year, I did not end up staying for the whole 3 hours and 15 minutes of the GAT, but I left much later than last year. Actually most people stayed compared to last year. The MC questions were kind of fried XDCame home through Doodie's "car pool" (THANKS FOR THE LIFT!) and decided to make some pasta with the roast chicken I bought after school yesterday.
The recipe itself is pretty versatile. You can make a white sauce, cheese sauce or use bottled pasta sauce instead of creamed corn and you can add whatever ingredient you want providing the flavour matches of course. You don't want to be putting gummy bears (or maybe you do) inside would you? And you can add more or less of a specific ingredient. Depends on what you feel like.
