This week’s questions

How do drink your hot chocolate? Marshmallows? From boxed or scratch?
From a box. Usually do a packet of Swiss Miss, a scoopy of Ghirardelli Hazelnut cocoa, melted marshmallows and a dollop of whipped cream! YUM!

Do you prefer cider hot or cold?
Hot. Cold cider is called apple juice. Hee hee/

Do you like egg nog?
YUCK!!! The texture feels like slime going down. My husband does like a glass or two at Christmas time but I wish they sold them in pints becauce the half gallon never gets consumed.

How do you make punch?
2 2 liters of Tahitian Treat, 1 bottle of tropical or passion fruit nectar.

Four Foods on Friday Thanksgiving edition

Filed Under FFoF | Leave a Comment

Pumpkin pie. Do you make it yourself or buy one already made?
If I’m the one in charge of bringing pies (which is rare) then I make it. Store bought never has enough spice for my taste. Oh and Cool Whip to top it! Yum! (To see the recipe I use see last week’s Aloha Friday recipe)

Where are you eating Thanksgiving dinner this year?
At Grandma’s house. They were planning to go to Florida early this year and miss it but I threw a hissy so they’re staying! Hee hee. (Hey, gotta enjoy the traditions of family while they’re still here! I realize how lucky I am at my age to still have grandparents and want to enjoy them!)

Turkey. Do you like white meat or dark meat?
White. Dark is just gross and fatty.

What’s your favorite Thanksgiving food?
I love stuffing but rarely find it to be done the way I like. I like it moist inside with that slight crust on the outside. It’s very delicate balance that few can pull off, even me. Sigh

Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours!

Here’s this week’s questions.

How do you make mashed potatoes?
If I’m throwing calorie counts to the wind, cube (with skins), boil, mash with heavy cream to desired consistency, coarse black pepper and Hawaiian Salt. For some flavor I may add a more pungent cheese like asiago, gruyere, parmesan, etc with some grated garlic and scallions. YUM!

What do you wash pots and pans with?
My husband.

Name something red in your refrigerator right now.
Ketchup or hot taco sauce. Take your pick!

Do you prefer to use boullion cubes or the boullion powder mix?
Neither. That stuff is a salt lick!!
