This is my life

From the altfriday5:

1. How often do you (1) eat out, (2) cook for yourself or (3) otherwise forage for food?
(1) I'll et out probably 2-3 times a week. At least once for lunch, usually once for supper, and often one other time. *g* (2) All other days, lunches are frozen meals, and suppers I do for myself during the week, but they tend to be very simple. M Loves to cook, so he does all the cooking on the weekend, which is great for me. Does that count as foraging?

2. What's your favourite restaurant and why?
Lime. It's just around the corner, it's fairly cheap, the takeout is ready in 10 minutes, and it's good.

3. What's your favourite food to prepare for yourself?
Stir fry. Risotto. Hrmmm... I love to bake, but cooking's not so high on my list. And baking for one is ... irritating, especially if you're trying not to gain any more weight. My absolute favourite thing to bake is probably chocolate chip cookies. Truffles are also good - there's something kinda fun about being covered to the wrists in chocolate.

4. What one food gives you the strongest emotional reaction? Why?
I don't know that any foods give me an emotional reaction, truly... Turkey dinners are good things, though.

5. If you were stuck on a desert island for the rest of your life, what would you do with the coconuts?
Make bongo drums? Possibly, I'd try to spin up the coconut hair so that I could make some clothes.*g*

From the altfriday5:

Name your guilty pleasure when it comes to:

1. Music. That's easy - 80s Madonna. Like a Virgin comes on, and I've got the stereo cranked.

2. Food and/or drink. - Freshly baked bread. It's absolutely irresistible. And every now and again, I break down and buy a mint chocolate chip frappucino from Starbuck's. *g*

3. TV and/or movies. Umm... does Canadian Idol count? Oh, I know - The O.C., definitely.

4. Activities. Singing along with Once more, With Feeling. I think I must pop that in the DVD player at least once a month. *g* I spend an awful lot of time watching DVD sets of TV shows, actually...

5. Reading material. Romance novels. The Nora Roberts trilogies ( Born in, Chesapeake Bay, Dream, Jewels of the Sun, etc.) are like comfort food for me.

The Questioner says: Don't forget your links!

From the (seriously unofficial) altfriday5:

1. What's the last gift you gave to someone?
M's birthday gift, given a week ago - a set of pots for his then completely-denuded kitchen. (He was cooking using his camping pots, a little set of aluminium pots made for using on a Coleman burner. *g*)

( Things lost, things found )

From the altfriday5:

1. How far do you currently live from the place where you were born?
About 3000 km. St. John's, Newfoundland to Toronto
