The Awesome Food Award

Huge thanks to Emily from Fearfully Wonderfully Me for nominating me for this award. If you get time, check out her blog. Full of variety and inspiration, which I love.

Although you all know I have had issues with food and eating since childhood due to my condition, I do LOVE food… or at least the idea of it. So what a fun

The rules:

1. Thank the person who nominated you
2. Answer the 10 questions provided
3. Come up with 10 more questions that relate to food
4. Nominate 10 people

My answers to the questions:

Coke or Pepsi?

I used to be addicted to diet coke but randomly one day my body decided it didn’t like carbonation. No idea why. But I am a slave to what my body likes or doesn’t like.

How do you like your pizza?

I grew up in New England, so there is only one type of acceptable pizza. NY style, plain. No need for toppings when it’s THAT good. 

If you were a food, what would you be?

I guess since currently the only thing I’m tolerating  well is Kind Bars, I must be granola.

What is your family’s favorite recipe/dish?

Oh, there’s so many but the most asked for has got to be my mother’s chicken. She taught me the recipe just days before she passed away. Unfortunately, I never ever make it because I can’t eat it, but it is absolutely the best I’ve ever had. People would line up at our house if they got wind that she was making it. She’d have to fry at least 10 lbs. at a time.

Ice cream or cake?

Cupcakes… which is cake, but better.

What do you like to eat for breakfast?

Refer to above. 

If you were a farmer, and could only grow one crop, what would it be?

This is a tough one. But I was president of my FFA (Future Farmers of America) chapter my senior year, but I went to the aquaculture school. We only raised fish and other marine life. But if you were in FFA, you’ll get this:

(see how I dodged that question…)

Are you (or have you ever been) vegetarian/vegan?

Sometimes, but only by default. 

Do you have any food allergies?
