o!.k!.- so maybe a little pricey, but this can be done!! Grocey stores always offer the option of "Steaming your lobster For you" Get a couple and say "Yes,Please!" Now go over to produce!. If there is a salad bar look at it To see if it looks fresh or kinda wilty like it's been hanging out a while!. If it's something you can work with go for it!. If not you can easy enough put together something that looks really good!. If you go with a bagged salad as a base look to see if any leaves are wilty and stuck to the bag, that eans your whole salad will smell like turning lettuce!. Or you can get a head of iceburg lettuce and a head f red leaf!. then just add things of color!. radishes slivered carrots tomato cucumber!. Even a little haved purple cabbage adds a nice effect!. next stop- the bakery section they've always got loaves of fresh bread!. Touch the bags of different kinds to find out what might still be warm! But if nothings warm!. Get a loaf of italian!. (unsliced) If you live in a margarine household, get some real butter to!. So now o home and decide if you want to make a lazy lobster(Just start cracking and get all meat out into one bowl) Or you could mix the meat with mayonaise and a little celery and celerysalt to either sit on top of a fat slice of the bread next to your beautiful salad or sit on top of salad and bread with butter on side !. or for the lazy lobster when you are ready to serve, just melt a stick of butter and pour hot butter oer the lobster meat!. Salad and loaf of bread with butter on side-That is a gorgeous anniversary dinner!. and all you had to do was chop a couple things and melt butter!. Even if you don't make this- I should still get the ten points for the effort that went into this amswer!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

hi Jenni, once you find a kitchen your able to use, let us know, because you need a kitchen for most of this!. But also I know how to cheat, all you will need is about $100 some empty clean dishes, and a very friendly Italian restaurant owner!. Seeming its for two, I would use the oblong glass trays about ten inches long that can be used in an oven!. I would get a tray of the large ravioli done in the white sauce!.
the veal parmigiana in the other dish, and a third dish for the vegetables!. You should have enough money left there for a nice bottle of red wine!. That Australia Wolf Blas ( the one with the yellow label)has taken my fantasy of late!.

Now you should have left overs, tell your mom to take a running jump for not letting you use the kitchen, and be extra kind to dad with the left overs!.

enjoy

For starters, you might want something simple like a jacket potato, homemade pizza or something along those lines!. You can even try making homemade ice cream, cupcakes or Boston Cream Pie!. Those are all really easy but look very professional!. You might want frittatas (aka omelette) or tomato tart (as an entree)!. But if you can't cook you might want to try something that doesn't involve an oven, like an ice-cream cake or a sundae!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Onigiri is quiet simple!.
INGREDIENTS

2 cups japanese rice (Rice must be Japanese style, as it is the stickiest)
2 cups water
4 teaspoons black roasted sesame seeds or white sesame seeds
4 teaspoons shredded nori ,
DIRECTIONS

Cook the rice either in a rice cooker or in a pot on the stove!.if on stove 10-12 mins
While you are waiting for the rice to cook, shred up the nori if it is still in large sheets, or small strips!. You want to be able to distribute the small pieces through the rice!.
When the rice is done, stir it up!. Then take half of it and put it in a bowl large enough for it to be mixed around inches!.
Add 2 teaspoons of sesame seeds and 2 teaspoons of nori and mix to evenly distribute!.
wet your hands with salt water to keep the rice from sticking to your hands and shape the rice into whatever shape you want!. The most common shape is a sort of rounded triangle!.
Repeat these steps with the remaining rice!.
Basically, you can add whatever you want to these!. Teriyaki chicken in the middle is good, and some people use fish or chicken!. If you want, you can also put a strip of nori on your onigiri so it will be easier to hold!.
