Question of the Day: Do You Give Out Your Prized Recipes?
Don't we all rely on others to share their recipes at some point, whether it's Julia Child giving out hers in her book or someone posting a recipe on their blog? We all give and take inspiration and learn techniques from one another. Like caley mentions above, people take a shared recipe and somehow make it their own, for better or worse, but that's the fun part!
What's the one food you just won't eat?
Raw oysters. The texture grosses me out. Fried on a po'boy is another story. One day I hope to get up the courage to actually try some on the half shell, but for now I can't bring myself to do it.
Question of the Day: Who Taught You to Cook?
My mom taught me to read a recipe from start to finish before you begin. My dad taught me to improvise.

I can't stand it when people talk with their mouths full, spewing and spitting food everywhere, then proceed to ask me for a sip of my drink. Right. Exactly what I want--their food floating in my beverage! Gross!
Also, I hate it when two or more people order the same exact dish. I'd rather get a few different things and have everyone try a little. Variety is great!!!
Lastly, this one is gonna annoy a lot of people, I know. But I can't stand it when I am out with my s.o. and offer her a taste of something I think is really amazing and she declines responding "I know what salad (or fill in the blank) tastes like. But she hasn't had THIS one! Look, I know it's silly but that's just how I am! I want people to at least TRY new things once!
