Finally "cooked" something

So a couple of weeks ago I finally "cooked" something.  I made spaghetti and also prepared a nice dressing-less salad as well.  While the spaghetti and salad were no real challenge to make it marks a turning point in my life away from home.  For the most part my meals at home have been little more than processed foods such as pouches of fake chicken that you have to boil and pore onto rice, cereal, processed spaghetti that you microwave etc.

But now I have actually "made" something.  I felt pretty good about it.  I bought a full head of lettuce and a full head of cabbage and three peppers, one green, one yellow, and one red.  They all lasted for quite awhile and added a certain health to my diet which was not there before.  Although I have eaten lots of apples and carrots since arriving.

I recently started using the rice maker that was in my apartment when I arrived.  It is a nice thing to have and is much cheaper than buying 5 packs of microwaveable rice once a week.

Here's is a picture...Please understand I'm not trying to brag or anything, I'm just glad I'm starting to move away from all the unhealthy junk I've had since arriving :D

Having a stove would be a wonderful thing so I could cook some lasagna but nevertheless I'm stove-less...
