I'm not talking about cereal. I'm talking about actual cooking/baking.
I've been in a real baking-type of mood lately, and last week I made two different kinds of scones (one cheddar-chive, the other oatmeal-buttermilk). I also made dinner for myself a few times last week, a big ass veggie shepherd's pie and broccoli and tofu in garlic sauce. And I did some sauteed peaches for dessert last week, too. I'm a cooking machine!

Behold, the manwich.
45 minutes to make, 7 minutes to devour, and 1 minute to bask in my own righteous glory. |

If you just slap everything on there, the thing will collapse. Every ingredient has to be precariously positioned. A newbie, for instance, probably wouldn't know not to put the mushrooms on last, or else the bread molds into the shape of their contours, which weakens the structural support.
Moreover, I have to warm-up the bacon and chicken wings, which takes time. You also have to wait for them to cool, or else the cheese melts, removing the foundation that wraps the bacon strips together. And Tabasco sauce has to be added incrementally on every layer, or else the spiciness becomes denatured in everything else going on and there won't be any physical pain upon eating it, which defeats the entire point of the manwich. |

^ i don't like mushrooms or bacon so that will not be a problem haha. and you put chicken wings on your sandwich?! omg you have like literally everything on there. i prefer simple turkey+ham+egg+lettuce+italian seasoning+cheese+mayo sandwiches. oh and i think slightly melted cheese tastes good!
today for dinner, i made lemon peppered grilled chicken with a side of mac&cheese and a side of corn+mashed potatoes! it was deliciousssss! |
