This Fall my family has been energetically watching Top Chef on the Bravo channel. My teenage daughter watches with the dream of some day being a chef. My husband watches because he loves reality shows and I mean, really loves them. Plus the whole competition thing really works for him. Me, I love cooking and good food. Every so often I get an idea from this group of talented young chefs who are competing for big money and honors galore.The winner for this season was Hung. Not the fan favorite, but he won fair and square. In his bio, he says if he were a food "I would be spicy chili - it takes a while to get used to, but once you eat it you always come back for more!" With that in mind, here is this week’s Friday Five.
- If you were a food, what would you be?
- What is one of the most memorable meals you ever had? And where?
- What is your favorite comfort food from childhood?
- When going to a church potluck, what one recipe from your kitchen is sure to be a hit?
- What’s the strangest thing you ever willingly ate?

ReplyDeleteIt's been a while since I've remembered to get on ON Friday and do this. YAY! I played here.

ReplyDeleteI'm in! This is my first Friday Five!
ReplyDeleteI finally had a few minutes to play, here.
ReplyDeleteI finally got mine done! Friday 5
ReplyDeleteI played!
ReplyDeleteFried Clams With Bellies, YUM!
Well, I think I've read them all! We've eaten bugs, food best known as road kill, innards, raw fish, weird fish and some things that just can't be described.
ReplyDeleteSome of the strangest things we like to eat are actually our comfort foods. And we tend to really groove on boxed macaroni and cheese!
The memorable meals were as much about the company we keep as they were about the menu.
Blessings to all and thanks for playing!
Good job RevH. A delicious game!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE Top Chef! I really wanted Casey to win and I hated seeing Tre go. Blogger was giving me fits but I finally got to play
ReplyDeleteI love melissa's idea about a RevGalPals Cookbook... (I also adore her icon but that's another thing entirely. *grins*)
ReplyDeleteI second (or thired, or fourth) the emotiona around a revgals cookbook! Just think...
ReplyDeletePer request, I posted the pumpkin chocolate chip cookie recipe over at my place.
I played this like most everything else I do these days; a day late and a dollar short.
