The Awesome Food Award

The lovely Heidi nominated me a couple of days ago for the Awesome Food Award! :) Thank you Heidi! Now, before you go any farther, click either on Heidi's name or right here: Along the Brandywine to check out her awesome blog!

The rules:

1). Thank the person who nominated you, as well as link to their blog.

2). Answer the 10 questions provided.

3). Come up with 10 more questions that relate to food.

4). Nominate at least 5 people.

5). Let those people know they've been nominated.

Heidi's questions:

1. Your thoughts on cheese?

Absotutley delicious! Creamy and especially good with apple pie :) 

2. Favorite pizza?

Hawaiian!! I love that amazing mix of juicy pineapple, roasted ham, and melting cheese. . . getting hungry just imagining it! 

3. Have you always had a “traditional” dinner (i.e. turkey and all the fixings) on Thanksgiving?

Yes, usually. Well, the fixings aren't always the same, but the turkey is generally the same. The only thing that changes perhaps is the size. Family grows in person and size, ya know! ;)

4. Favorite Thanksgiving dish to prepare?

Hmm....probably potatoes or roast vegetables for a side, turkey (of course!) for the main, and apple crisp/crumble for dessert! :D 

5. Your favorite breakfast?

Pancakes with homemade maple syrup, fresh eggs from the chickens, and little teeny breakfast sausages. We don't usually eat this type of breakfast on an everyday basis just because it is rather time-consuming to cook up. Especially for a family of 9! :P 

6. Favorite kind of bread (i.e. whole wheat, French, sourdough, cinnamon-raisin, etc.)

My favourite kind of bread is probably white, whole wheat, French, sourdough, rye, honey-and-oat, and multi-grain. What other kind of bread is there? Oh, fried bread is okay, but it's not my total favourite because of all the grease. And mouldy bread isn't a great favourite either :P 

7. Favorite vegetable?

Ohhh...does corn count as a vegetable? I think it's one, anyway, I hope it is, because I love eating corn. Mmm...corn kernels with butter melting over it!  Maybe with a handful of peas and carrots thrown in too! :) 

8. Do you like sweet or sour?

Both. I like sweet food, sour food, and sweet and sour food. Really just depends on the day. 

9. Most unusual/unexpected ethnic dish you’ve ever had?
The most unusual and very unexpected ethnic dish that I ever ate was in Singapore. We went to Dad's cousin's Italian restaurant while we were there and among the other delicious pastas and pizzas that he served us, was a dish of linguini covered in black squid ink! A very interesting dish, if I do say so myself! :D 

10. Hamburgers or hotdogs?

Hamburgers!! Every time! 

Thank you again, Heidi for tagging me! I don't know if the tag was supposed to do this to me, but I'm really hungry right now. . . and I just ate dinner :P 

Okie dokie, now to come up with some questions! 

1. Chocolate or vanilla?

2. Favourite dessert? 

3. Imagine that it's freezing cold, there's lots of snow, and you just came in from playing outside. Would you prefer to drink hot chocolate or coffee?

4. Favourite pie/cake?

5. What is a dessert that you love making/is the easiest thing you can make?

6. What is a meal that you love making/is the easiest thing you can make?

7. Is there a food that you hope that you'll never have to eat in your life time?

8. The strangest dish you've ever eaten?

9. Favourite mealtime? Why?
