1. What's your "comfort food"?

Oh, I'd need an entire week of posts to answer this question--I just love food and find comfort in all kinds. A little too much actually.

So, here's a short list of comfort foods I adore:

• Homemade Macaroni & Cheese
• Soups and Stews (almost all of them as long as they're tasty)
• Homemade Pizza or Lasagna
• My Mom's Clam Chowder
• Mama M's Carrot Gravy (sounds blah but tastes AMAZ-ZA-ZING!--bug her for the recipe! Now!)
  
• Pot Roast and Potatoes
• Molten Chocolate Cake
• Key Lime Pie
• Homemade Risotto (I'm a Risotto expert!)
  

Okay, now I need to go cook! Darn it!

2. Do you send Thank You's (handwritten or email)?

This was my question I submitted! Thanks Mama M! I asked this because I always have the BEST of intentions. In business, I send them often--it's a policy of mind after almost every meeting.
Here's the thing, Handwritten Thank You's are like GOLD--they are rare and wonderful and simply appreciated.
So why don't I send more? I need to get on it . . . you'd think it'd be easy to do and yet .. .
As for email Thank You's--I think they're okay and certainly better than nothing; but they are no substitute for the real thing!

3. If you had to be trapped in a TV show for a month, which show would you choose?

So You Think You Can Dance! Hey, in this scenario would I get to BE on the show? And, like, be good at it? Oh, it would be my DREAM! I LOOOOOOOOOOOOVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVEEEEEEEEEEEEEE Dance! I cannot explain to you how I feel when I watch this show! and to be there . . . in person . . . to witness all the amazing dancing! Actually, if I would I'd be a judge on the show--all the expertise and none of physical madness! (sigh) I'd replace Mary Murphy and be a much needed relief to millions of ears. . . .

There is NOTHING more exciting to me than watching a beautifully choreographed routine executed with style and grace.

Yup.

Oh, and if that wasn't an option I'd go on the Biggest Loser. Which I have seriously considered applying for anyway.

4. What is your favorite online recipe site?

The Food Network. Love it and trust the recipes because they've all been tested. I also use allrecipes.com for the more "down home" dishes; but Food Network is my go-to-recipe guide!

5. If you had to choose: "Friends" or "Seinfeld"?

Friends. Hands down. Seinfeld is funny, but Friends is Friends. The ONLY reason I'd choose Seinfeld is that they actually taped in NYC whereas Friends taped on a studio lot in LA. and since NYC is MY FAVORITE CITY ON THE EARTH I have to give Seinfeld props. But If I'm stuck on a desert island and can only choose one, I'd choose Friends.
