Time to learn more food facts according to me. If you are not interested you can move along. As always be sure to check out Fun Craft and Recipes to join each week and to spread the news so others might join as well.

Share a meal or recipe that you could make using four ingredients. The four ingredients are:

* Potatoes
* Ground beef
* Green beans
* Soup, your choice of type

Sadly, I think I have already failed this. The only thing I could come up with is hash for the ground beef and potatoes. Then maybe some chicken soup and toss in the green beans and maybe some diced potatoes too.

Name four food oddities that you have.

1. I despise melted cheese on just about anything including hamburgers, broccoli, etc. I do love cheese though.
2. When eating fruit such as grapes, plums, and peaches they must NOT be mushy or I won’t eat them.
3. I do not like ripe bananas and prefer mine green.
4. I don’t like wine or beer. Shocker I know.

1. How do you pronounce manicotti? Men-e-got, man-i-cotti or some other way?
Man-i-cotti – but what it is I have no idea.

2. What do you call the carbonated drink that comes in a bottle? Soda, tonic, pop, fizzy or something else?
Soda. I think the northern peoples are the only ones who call it pop and I remember on the floor one of the nurses asked the child if he wanted a pop and the kid freaked, cringed, and said I didn’t do anything wrong. He thought he was going to get smacked cuz that’s what pop means down here in the south.

3. What do you call a sandwich on a long roll? Sub, grinder, hoagie, hero, po boy or something else?
It’s a sub of course.

4. Do you call it broth, boullion or stock? How do you make chicken stock?
Broth. I buy a box, pull the tab to open the seal and pour :grin:

Ha, I’m on time this week :)

1. Do you prefer soft serve ice cream or hard ice cream?
Umm, I’m assuming hard ice cream that comes out of a box or pint container? Bring on the Haagen-Dazs dark chocolate.

2. What is the strangest sandwich you’ve ever made?
Hmm, I don’t think i have made any strange ones but my mother used to make grilled cheese and tomato sandwiches which I thought were gross.

3. What’s your favorite type (not flavor) of potato chip?
Munchos!! They are the crispiest and saltiest and THAT is a great combination. Although the kettle ones are right on that tail of them and rising fast.

4. What size spoon do you usually eat soup with at home?
I eat everything with a tablespoon until they are all dirty then use the teaspoons but if silverware sets could come with double the tablespoons and no teaspoons that would be ideal.

Not sure what happened but I missed last weeks too so here’s both of them :)

1. What kind of orange juice do you like? Pulp, no pulp, etc.
I haven’t bought OJ in forever but definitely no pulp because I don’t like it sticking in between my teeth.

2. Rolls. Do you prefer them with seeds or without?
Hmm, doesn’t really matter so long as they are warm and yummy.

3. What is your favorite scent of dish soap?
Dawn Apple Blossom and I donate $1.00 to the wildlife fund as a bonus.

4. What’s in the butter storage space in your fridge?
Garlic cloves and packages of mayonnaise.

and

Name four things related to food that are strange or funny to you.
1. Why state something is fat free/sugar free on the box but when you mix it with other stuff it isn’t anymore?
2. Microwavable time directions are never right.
3. I never understand why we must salt everything…I very rarely use the stuff.

Well, all I could think of at the moment are 3 things.

I’m a day late on this because I got back from our kidney camp late last night and I just wanted by bed. I’ll have a few posts about that throughout the week with some pictures and some without because I didn’t have time to get over to one of the cabins that got nailed by a dead tree. Everybody was fine though just structural damage.

1. What kind of olive oil do you use?
I prefer extra virgin olive oil from Filippo Berio. I did buy one from Costco once that was excellent but never was able to find it again. It was in a tall square bottle.

2. Do you prefer salted or unsalted butter?
I guess I buy the salted? Honestly, I have no idea. I buy Country Crock Light. What’s that have?

3. What size eggs do you usually buy?
I usually get large or extra large. The others just seem too small for me.

4. What’s in the bottom drawer of your fridge?
Well, since I just went to the store since I had no food, I have carrots, apples, peaches, oranges, package of smoked turkey, and a bag of shredded cheese now.
