I'm of mixed feelings on the issue. As a native Texan, I've always seen people eat ranch on pizza or dip the pizza in it. I always thought it was gross despite my love of the condiment. I do, however, dip the top crust in ranch occasionally. The rest is off limits. The idea of ranch and the tomato sauce mixing is too much for me.

Dinner I don't mind waiting up to 30-45 minutes. An hour is too long unless it is really good. But I don't wait at lunch time since I only get 45 minutes for lunch at work.

Blue Bell is by far my favorite. I grew up on it and have never gotten tired of it. Its almost a sin to eat Blue Bunny in Texas (at least according to my grandpa). Vanilla is my flavor of choice usually when eating ice cream. It may be boring to some but I love my ice cream to be simple.

Warm homemade chocolate pudding

I'd order it but probably only in the U.K. Because it was cheap, I ate a lot of McD's in London during my semester there. I liked it much better than American ones. It seemed less greasy and healthier.

cherry cream pie!

I love candy corn! My mom and I used to buy separate bags because we would fight over who got to eat the candy corn if we didn't. I still have to have my own bag to this day!

I'm a grape candy lover too! Grape skittles are the best!

banana pudding made with vanilla wafers

It is definitely okay. I had to make my own this year. My mom knows I love to bake so she surprised me with the makings of my favorite birthday cake instead of a pre-made bakery cake. My little sister helped and we had a blast.

This native Texan frequently goes to the gro-sher-ee store to buy or-enge sherbert and cetch-up, usually without a kewpon. I love to eat car-mels. I use a dish rag to wash my dishes and a wash rag in the shower (I had to train my mom NOT to say warsh). I mail letters in en-velopes. In December, I wish every one a Merry Chrismuss.

I did a quiz once that said I had the kind of neutral Western accent that was probably due to me being born in Texas after 1980. As long as my hick family isn't around, I guess its right. When they're around though...oh geez.

I like to make the full recipe of whatever I'm making and then freeze half of it for later. It helps save me money and time as well as not wasting ingredients since I live alone. I can take out a package from the freezer when I leave for work and by the time I get home, I've got a home cooked meal ready to be heated up!

My favorite is is Vermont White Cheddar with Granny Smith Apple on multi-grain bread with just a bit of mustard. yum!
