Kraft Fail n' Cheese

Spent the day in chore-mode, shopping for food, diapers and the like. In the evening, I attended a test run of a knish lecture for a conference in California, it was a small, informal group of friends of the lecturer, writers, food-mavens and the like. For some odd reason she chose to serve pizza, which was all very nice but not a knish!


TODAY'S COOKING
Homemade Kraft Dinner-style Mac n' Cheese: Used this recipe. Came out...disgusting. I did eat a bowl, but trashed the rest -- I'm not a fan of throwing out edible food, but this stuff was just wrong. The main problem was the cheese: I used a low-quality sharp cheddar and it's off-notes were amplified by this recipe. There was too much mustard in it. And when it slightly cooled, the cheese sauce started coagulating at room temp into a very unappetizing paste. Oh well.
