Tasty Thoughts


      Most people like food. I'm no exception. I don't know why, but I thought I would compile a list of some of my favorite foods (and not so favorite) that I stuff (and don't stuff) my face with. Most of it is junk, but I promise I don't eat it all the time. If I did, though, I'd be happy, happy, happy!



 
  • I really like black beans, and I mix them in about everything. Pasta, fajitas, chili, dips, etc...
  • I like ground hamburger in my mac and cheese (and I throw some black beans in there too).
  • These Baby Cuties are so good! I can't quit eating them!!

  • I love garden fresh tomatoes. I don't like store bought ones. And they MUST have salt. And I like them peeled. That's how my Pawpaw ate them. He trained me well.
  • I like sourdough bread.
  • I like Jell-O Jigglers. I like them made in the Jell-o egg molds, but can't find any these days.
  • Though I like corn, I believe it should be eaten separate from other food in it's own little spot on the plate. This roots from some childhood memories that some may find comical, but it is what it is.
  • I like my rice dry before the food goes on top (not sticky or creamy).
  • My favorite part about eating cereal is drinking the cereal flavored milk afterwards. Yum-O! Cereal companies should make little individual serving cereal flavor packets to put in 8 ounces of milk. Fruity Pebble milk? You've got it!
  • I love my Gran's buttermilk biscuits (especially with chocolate gravy).
  • I like deer meat. It is really lean (which is good for my fatty liver). When we have it, we use it in the place of most all meat.
  • Cherry cheesecake makes me happy!
  • Milk and Oreo cookies are one of my favorites! I don't care for the cookies without the milk though. I can hang with the low-fat Oreos. It's been so long since I had the other kind, I forgot how good they were.
  • My favorite candy bar is a Symphony bar. The kind with toffee and almonds.

  • By the way, what ever happened to these? I think they were called Nestle Alpine White Chocolate Bars. They were a huge part of my childhood. We should start a petition to bring them back!
  • My husband makes the best Chinese dish that I've ever eaten. I would seriously choose it over going to a Chinese restaurant.
  • I WILL NOT buy the Wal-mart brand chocolate syrup. Under the allergy warning on the label, it states that it may contain traces of anchovies. I don't want anchovies in my chocolate milk. Thanks, but no. That's all I could think about after I read it. I buy the name brand now.
  • Sadly, I am a picky eater. Most of the time, it doesn't have anything to do with the flavor, but instead the texture.
  • I HEART white chocolate mousse.
  • I prefer my pasta "al dente".
  • I like candy that has gooey insides. True story. Fruit Gushers, that gum with the goo inside, or my new favorite, Twizzlers Filled Twists are all examples.
  

  • And why can't we just buy those little candied marshmallows that come in some hot chocolate packets? Those are good.
  • I MUST  have milk in my hot chocolate. There is just something really wrong with drinking chocolate water (though some would argue that's exactly what I'm drinking since I only drink skim milk)! Also, while the rule is one packet to eight ounces of milk, I always use a packet and a half.
 That brings me to my current favorite thing...
  • I love Nestle's Chocolate Caramel Hot Chocolate. It makes my insides all cozy, like wrapping up in a big comfy blanket! It relaxes my whole body.
