Five on Friday for November 3, 2006
Cooking School: These great questions are from the folks at The Friday Five LiveJournal community. I thought they were so good that I didn't have the heart to change them.
- 1. Given a choice, and imagining that money and time were no object, would you rather cook dinner, eat out or order in?
- That question was only hard until they threw in that "money and time were no object" caveat. Then I know I'd rather cook dinner (with help from my husband, who's a better cook than me).
- 2. What is the most elaborate meal you've ever prepared yourself or purchased at a restaurant?
- Jon has made some pretty elaborate things, but I tend to go for stuff that's simple yet tasty. The most elaborate thing I've had out was probably at Mori Moto's restaurant in Philadelphia. Lots of little bitty food painstakingly cooked and arranged for my enjoyment.
- 3. What food do you find yourself making and/or eating way too much?
- Everything? I have a problem with baked goods. I like making them and they're vary delicious. And we all know that they can't be kept for more than two days, so have to be devored promptly.
- 4. What was your most disastrous cooking/eating out experience?
- Umm, the time my cream of broccoli soup turned out to be green goo. Maybe the time I turned an entire tray of cookies black because I forgot they were in the oven. Or the pear tarte tatin cheesecake that oozed all over my oven because the springform pan failed.
- 5. Would you rather cook for someone else or have them cook for you?
- That depends on who's cooking. I would much rather cook for my mother than have her cook for me ;) The opposite for Jon.
