Q and A - Quinoa and Applesauce
Passed a lovely Saturday evening in Manhattan, as Bunni had organised a surprise shindig for Bakerina. smarriveurr helped me carry cookies and pie, with much aplomb and no major misadventures, through two hours' worth of (crowded) train and subway to get to our rendezvous point. The food was divine--as is expected when foodies collide--and the company refreshingly interesting.
Our interstate conspiracy to bring Bakerina some southern lovin' would, then, have proved to have been a success.

How do you like your eggs? over hard
How do you take your coffee/tea? coffee with a bit of cream, tea with milk on an incidental basis--usually Lady Grey, which boggles some
Favorite breakfast food: bagels are most frequent, but I've a happy little love for Kaiserschmarr'n
Peanut butter: smooth, please, though crunchy has its place
What kind of dressing on your salad? Caesar or bleu cheese
Coke or Pepsi? neither on a regular basis at all, but I'll have the odd vanilla Coke
You’re feeling lazy. What do you make? pasta with tuna, diced tomato and black pepper
You’re feeling really lazy. What kind of pizza do you order? Left entirely to my own devices, I order artichokes and anchovies
You feel like cooking. What do you make? Tonight I'm doing rolled roast and leftover stuffing from yesterday's huge turkey dinner.
Is there a food you refuse to eat? beef products from most major fast-food chains
What was your favorite food as a child? My mum used to make tuna noodle casserole, but as later children got too picky she kept the sauce separate from the pasta, and it was never the same.
Is there a food that you hated as a child but now love? uncooked tomato
Is there a food that you loved as a child but now hate? most really sugary things
Favorite fruit & vegetable: peaches and asparagus
Favorite junk food: Doritos
Favorite between meal snack: yoghurt
Do you have any weird food habits? I put mayonnaise on my chips/fries.
You’re on a diet. What food(s) do you fill up on? I take a second helping of veg instead of meat.
You’re off your diet. Now what would you like? Pretty well what I always eat.
How spicy do you order Indian/Thai? As spicy as they'll serve to white people.
Can I get you a drink? Black Russian, please
Red wine or white? red
Favorite dessert? cheesecake, and when I've managed to scour the springform pan (and replace the cream cheese that had been earmarked for cheesecake but has been used on bagels) I'm making some.
