Aaaargh, a food poll before lunch! We will all be running for our lunches after this one.1. What's your favorite restaurant and why? Toughie, I love any type of Italian food so pretty much anywhere that serves Italian. Armstrong's is probably one of my faves. Also love Mexican though so Mad Mex, Patron and El Campesino are up there too. 2. Do you like to cook? Do you cook often? I cook 3-4 times a week and we eat leftovers the rest of the days. I love to cook but I hate to clean up! We have a little kitchen so it makes it a total PITA when I'm messing with a new recipe. What I would do for a double sink and a garbage disposal 3. What's your favorite thing to make? I don't think that I have a favorite thing to make. Anything that doesn't require dirtying too many prep bowls! 4. What's your least favorite thing to cook that you cook anyway? I don't cook anything that's too complicated, so I don't really have anything there! 5. Do you plan your meals ahead of time or cook spontaneously? A little bit of both. 6. Is there anything you don't eat? Many, many veggies. I really only like green veggies and there are many that I still won't try. 7. Dessert: requirement or treat? treat 8. What would be your ideal last meal on earth? Probably pizza and wings! Or a pepperoni calzone, mmm. 9. Do you read any food blogs? A few (including Erica's)10. What's the weirdest/grossest thing you've ever eaten? Dog treats! My sister and I were little and they looked (and tasted like) shortbread cookies. And, your favorites... Veggie- Broccoli Fruit- Clementines Pizza- Extra cheese and pepperoni Pasta- baked ziti Dessert- Ice cream! Pie- Oreo Cream from Eat N Park Breakfast food- Belgian waffle or homefries (especially from Waffle House, mmmm) Ethnic food- Mexican Afternoon snack- Vitatop or yogurt, chocolate isopure w/ milk Midnight snack- favorite would be ice cream but very rarely do I actually indulge late. Probably a vitatop or yogurt again. Fast food- Chick Fil A! Although I do love me some McD!

LaFemmeRousse · August 2009

1. What's your favorite restaurant and why?As usual, I can't pick just one, and these are my three favorite types of food- L'Espalier in Boston (French), Vermilion in Chicago (Indian-Latin American fusion and lots of vegetarian options) and Topolobampo in Chicago (Mexican- Rick Bayless rocks my world)2. Do you like to cook? Do you cook often?Yes and yes3. What's your favorite thing to make?I make a lot of veggie/grain dishes, some great mac n cheese, and cupcakes. My favorite thing I've made recently is probably a beet, goat cheese, and orange peel risotto4. What's your least favorite thing to cook that you cook anyway?Working with raw tomatoes grosses me out (the texture! eww!) but they're called for in a lot of recipes.5. Do you plan your meals ahead of time or cook spontaneously?Almost always spontaneous, but I wish I was better about planning.6. Is there anything you don't eat?I've been a vegetarian since I was 9- no seafood, no other meat of any kind. My mom describes it as "nothing with a face" :)7.

LaFemmeRousse · August 2009

Ok Jen, you win the gross award. What kind of situation were you in that involved fresh cow balls?!

skybluejen · August 2009

haha!When I was a teenager I went to Australia for almost a month for part of a student ambassador program. While there we had to camp in the Outback for 4 days. We stayed in tents on a cow farm that was 2 hours from the closest neighbor - truly the middle of nowhere.Anyway...the family that owned the farm was in the process of castrating their male cows. Apparently as a snack they often saved the cow balls and grilled them, so, naturally, we were offered a taste. I couldn't say no to something I knew I'd never be offered again! It wasn't nearly as bad as it sounds
