My new best friend (who doesn't know she's my best friend yet) Astrogirl, from Notes from the Bunker tagged me. The deal is, I get to tell you 6 random things about me, and since this is my cooking blog, I'm going to make them all food related. How's that for an awesome twist?
So here we go:
1. I took my first cooking class when I was in 1st grade (mom correct me if I'm wrong on this). The big fancy main course was an apricot glazed roasted chicken that basically involved roasting a chicken slathered in apricot jam. I get queasy just thinking about it.
2. I used to hate tuna in all shapes and forms. No tuna sandwiches, no sushi, no seared ahi. Couldn't stand the stuff. Then I got pregnant with Big Dog, and I craved it non-stop. His favorite sandwich now? Tuna. I also used to hate peanut butter. Got pregnant with Little Dog and couldn't get enough. His favorite sandwich? Peanut butter.
3. While I like peanut butter now, I don't like peanut butter with sweet stuff like jam or chocolate. I like it salty. My favorite peanut butter sandwich is peanut butter and siracha on whole wheat. Yum.
4. I hate eating leftovers. I always cook so we have them, but I hate to eat them. I get freaky about food that has been in the fridge for more than a few days too.
5. I love chex mix. Even the prepackaged junk. Especially if it is the extra bold recipe.
6. On our honeymoon in Belize, we fell in love with Marie Sharp's hot sauce. One of our souvenirs from the trip was a case of the stuff. It took about 2 years to eat it all, then Mr. Dog found a source online and bought two more cases.

Wait ... is that peanut butter and Sriracha - the hot chili sauce - or something else?
And I totally get ya on the leftovers thing. I can't eat them.
Yes, the hot chili sauce. It is soooooooo good.
I can imagine peanut butter and sriracha - kind of like Indonesian peanut sauce, the stuff you put on sate. And I LOVE chex mix but they don't sell it here. Not the cereal or the premixed stuff. Bah humbug.
robin,
That is exactly what it is like. I'm betting it would be good with shredded carrots and red onion on it too, but I've never made it that far.
How insane, a world without Chex. How do you survive????
