basically cook some party pies in the oven

I'm guessing that this is some sort of regional nickname.  What exactly is a party pie?

with the spice price i dont really find any difference in quality even if you pay more

for pastas and sauces it all depends what you are putting into them as to what works best
tomato based sauces are good with basil generally and cream sauces dont really use herbs,maybe just some bay leaves and chives
again it depends on how you are going about it and what you are putting in there

home made burger patties are a lot of fun to mess around with
if you have good quality mince you can put just salt,pepper,basil,garlic,onion and it will be great

if you go the other option you can put the above ingredients as well as tomato sauce,bbq sauce, worcestershire and tobasco sauce

the most used spice used in kitchens everywhere is just the plain old salt and peeper.
it can really make a huge difference in the flavor a lot in just about anything

not really a recipe, its just a sandwhich with anything you can find to put on it.
my personal favorite is my creation called the "wtf sandwhich"
NEED TO TRY THIS> ONE OF THE BEST FUCKING SANDWHICHES I'V EVER HAD.

Ingredients:

.peanut butter

.mayonaise

.melted chedder cheese

.plain white bread

.cool ranch doritos

.and ham and turkey lunch meat

directions:

get your 2 pieces bready and lay them out.

spread peanut butter on 1 side and mayonaise on the other side.

put your lunch meat on the bread and put your doritos on.

put the two pieces of bread togather.

melt some chedder cheese in a bowl so you can dip your sandwhich in it.

then enjoy 
i also have a bunch of other good sandwhiches to make but this one is the best. i call it the wtf sandwhich cause when you eat it your like "what the fuck, thats acually good" lol. aslo just a peanut butter and mayonaise sandwhich is really good.




                   

This is here by no one has used the thread yet? Is the offer still open?

I recently graduated from college, so I have time to cook and stop wasting money on eating out. Unfortunately, my studies in biology, neuroscience, drugs, and so on didn't afford me much culinary experience, and my cooking is as bland as my mother's (I had a sad childhood when it came to home-cooked meals).

What would you suggest as "essential" herbs, spices, etc. in a diet heavy on carbohydrates (simple pasta dishes) and periodic meat (mostly hamburgers)? Also, are there any differences between the five dollar containers of seasonings and those fancy expensive 20+ dollar ones (or any in between)?

I have researched a little online but really, there is only so much you can find out from people simply telling you to put certain things with specific recipes. They make it seem mechanic instead of conceptual.

I'm gonna wipe my mouth with the American flag
And then I'm gonna toss the Styrofoam container right out the side
And there ain't a goddamned thing anybody can do about it
You know why? Because we got the bombs, that's why

Two words, nuclear fucking weapons, okay?
Russia, Germany, Romania
They can have all the democracy they want
They can have a big democracy cake walk
Right through the middle of Tienanmen square

And it won't make a lick of difference
Because we've got the bombs, okay?
