Hospital food really sucks!

I'm glad you're back home. I can't imagine eating hospital food for more than a day or so. Get well soon!

Cook the Book: 'Chocolate Epiphany'

A crispy double chocolate cookie. I've never been a fan of brownies or chocolate cake.

Best way to eat ice cream?

Always in a cup, never more than two flavors and no mix-ins. I feel so boring!

From Talk

What is your favorite kind of cookie?

Chewy chocolate chip cookies have and probably will always be my favorite. Though I have been making batches of homemade oreos lately, much to my waistline's chagrin!

Can't sleep... what do you consume?

@JEP Definitely hot chocolate for me too! There's something about it that is so soothing and after half a cup, I'm out for the night. :)

My favorite cold cereal is _____

Kashi Go Lean with ice cold skim milk is my daily breakfast. When I want a treat, I have a bowl of Strawberry Fields...the flakes are much crunchier than Special K with Berries!

I throw a handful of raisins in ____

Tuna salad! Most of my friends think this is gross though. :(

What's your go-to dinner for one?

So embarrassing but I would have a big bowl of Kraft Dinner with generous squirts of ketchup/Sriracha. He hated the smell so that's why I could only have it when he was gone!

Foods You Indulge Yourself With

Homemade baked goods! There's something very indulgent about whipping up a batch of cookies knowing they're just for you.

Best way to eat ice cream?

i'm the only person i know who does this - if there is anyone else, please confess! i NEED my ice cream to be nice and soft and melty, but have no patience, so i always zap a cold bowl of it in the microwave for ten seconds to take off the chill. am i the only one?

Have you ever had them with honey and melted butter? You might feel differently.

Sweet Potato Fries -- Who Likes These Things?

One comment I did not see is that, for a diabetic like me, regular potato fries are a no-no (what with the high glycemic index of potatos). However, sweet potato fries are actually tolerable from a blood-sugar perspective. Something to keep in mind...

Actually, one of my favorite things to eat chocolate or other wise is Nutella. I also love fudge.

Seriously Delicious Holiday Giveaway: Edible Chocolate Box from Charles Chocolates

My Mother's "Mystery Mocha Cake" - it's from an ancient newspaper column and it is wickely and yet divinely delicious: Premium dark chocolate blended with ultra rich, dark expresso and laced with chocolate or Irish Creme Liquor. The end result is an utterly delicious concoction that is a cross between a rich chewy brownie moulton cake,, oozing yumminess,

My favorite of all time is Texas Sheet Cake. It has a touch of cinnamon and the best icing ever.

Seriously Delicious Holiday Giveaway: Edible Chocolate Box from Charles Chocolates

One restaurant here in Pittsburgh makes a "chocolate-caramel candy bar" dessert that is INSANELY GOOD.

But I also like the homemade caramel fudge that a co-worker brought to our festive holiday gift exchange. Yum yum yum.
