I would love to have lunch with Ellen. She has so much energy and I absolutely love her sense of humor. The reason that I chose lunch is because she has daily pictures of her lunch on her website. I think she needs to be rescued and taken somewhere nice for lunch instead.
Since my children have left home, I had a hard time adjusting to just cooking for two. I decided not to decrease the amount of food and go ahead and make full quantity of the recipes I cook. I just divide it in half and freeze half of the quantity for a future dinner when I don't have time to cook.
Italy - I'm half Italian and miss my grandmother's cooking
Caribbean - the exotic & unusual flavors can't be matched in the States
Louisiana - I just visited a couple weeks ago and miss the food already (love those spicy mud puppies aka crawfish!)
Cadbury eggs, peeps... and robin eggs (malt balls with a colored candy shell)
"Your ability to juggle many tasks will take you far."
Very true... my ability to multi-task in my last job was a big plus as far as my boss was concerned.
I forgot a few more in STX... Cheeseburgers in Paradise (east end) for great burgers, frozen drinks and music, The Deep End (also east end) for great food & fun (crab races, etc.), and my absolute favorite place to be on a Friday night... the Full Moon beach bar in Cane Bay (north shore) - all you can eat peel & eat shrimp - skip the corn but make sure to get two johnny cakes also great music & fun!
For St. Thomas... sorry, but all I can recall is eating lunch at Arby's while sitting at the bar and ordierng a beer with it (only in the VI). I loved it at the time. What a memory.
I lived in St. Croix for 10 months (July 2006 - April 2007), but didn't make it over to St. Thomas. Restaurant suggestions in STX: Villa Morales near Frederiksted (authentic native food, delicious), Rum Runners in downtown Christiansted, Duggan's in the east end (near where I lived), The Cultured Pelican (in the same condo complex where I lived in the east end (Coakley Bay), very good Italian food, great view of Buck Island, great Sunday morning breakfasts - I highly recommend the Pelican Eggs), Tutto Bene in downtown Christiansted (EXCELLENT Italian food, steaks, chops) and last but not least, Breezes... make sure to order a Painkiller... the best on the island.
Have a great time! I'm jealous as hell... can't wait to go back myself!
I love it made with prosciutto, arugula and fresh mozzarella di bufala campana (when I can find it)... yum!
The smell of a roast chicken is one of my favorite smells.
It's one of the easiest, most delicious ways to prepare chicken IMHO.
anything salty and crunchy... and lots of ice cold beer to wash it down
Don't eat the damn food if you don't like the content! You are not being forced to make these recipes, nor eat the food. YOU eat what YOU like and the rest of us mature adults will eat what WE like. I am sure that you have eaten a hamburger, french fry or doughnut in your lifetime....well, guess what, you have just eaten a fried cheese and butter ball. It's all the same thing, just a different flavor.
Remember, it is people like you and me who made her famous, not to mention her scrumptious recipes. There is no harm in eating food like this if you ingest in moderation.

Definitely Ellen and take-out Chinese.
I would have to say Oprah. I admire her so much for all that she does for other people. I would like to have a salad with a creme brulee dessert.
I'd love to eat with Oprah! She would appreciate some good southern cooking. I'd cook my famous crock pot maccaroni & cheese, collard greens, and smothered chicken over rice. Yum!!!
I would like to dine with Ellen. We would try something from Bosco's Chicken and Waffles, because that would be a hoot!
No contest...I would want to sit down to an afternoon lunch in some open air restaurant and discuss where Oprah sees this country heading. As we would munch on a delicious Chicken Ceasar Salad with fresh shreded Parmesan Cheese I could probe her thoughts and reasoning in supporting Barack Obama as a presidential candidate and if she has had any second thoughts about that decision since the campaign has turned so ugly with all the media spin. And ask her too...what does she think of the way news media and paparazzi conduct their business in reporting the lives of high profile individuals like herself.
I would like to share some southern food with Oprah.
