Cornbread and sausage stuffing is my favorite.

my favorite family meal is vietnamese hot pot soup flavored with tamarind and fish sauce. everyone sits around the table adding veggies and seafood to their liking. lots of fun and very delicious.

i am in love with the chocolate duo mousse cake from sugar flour butter in sunnyvale, ca.

bacon is delicious, but that's not the main reason i love it. i love it because it's so gosh darn useful. bacon fat can be used to fry things. it can be added to every course in a meal from appetizers, entrees, and desserts. it's magical.

bacon, american cheese, and grilled onions.

low fat string cheese and reduced calorie popcorn.

i LOVE root beer floats. my husband won me over when he remembered that i loved them and surprised me by ordering one for me while on a date at a bar. i thought that was one of the most romantic gestures ever :)

turkey burger with swiss cheese, sauteed mushrooms, and bacon.

at the mountain view, ca farmer's market, there's a little asian man with only a small table and a hand written cardboard sign that sells amazing frozen hand-made scallion pancakes and wontons.

sonic's coney dogs! with a side of tater tots :)
