This last weekend, two days before the start of the school year, my new roommate Nick and I got the boxes in the door (with the help of Eat Cook Live cohorts Meg and Stu).<\/p>\n<p>A few days after unpacking the bottle opener for our Brooklyn Lagers, we turned our attention to some kitchen luxuries: a pot, a skillet, a spatula, some cutlery, and a few plates and bowls. Over this first week of school with evening classes and no time for a real shopping run our cooking has been limited to pasta in some form.<\/p>\n<p>I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m actually embarrassed to put this in the cooking section. In all honesty my efforts to feed myself probably fall short of cooking. The two nights were shameful pasta and jarred sauce meals (the sauce and pasta were all that made it through the move). Finally, a morning Key Foods run and a late night Trader Joe&#8217;s run yielded wine, sausage, onion, bell peppers, and canned tomatoes. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.eatcooklive.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/09\/Pasta-sauce.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-144\" title=\"Pasta-sauce\" src=\"http:\/\/www.eatcooklive.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/09\/Pasta-sauce-300x198.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"198\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.eatcooklive.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/09\/Pasta-sauce-300x198.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.eatcooklive.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/09\/Pasta-sauce.jpg 390w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>Last night\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s dinner was still a meal of simple pasta, but the added 5 minutes of turning the veggies, meat, and tomatoes into a sauce while the pasta water boiled was pleasant change from the jar-o-tomato sauce.<\/p>\n<p>But hope is on the horizon. With a long weekend coming up, priority one is going to be finding a grill for the back yard.
