Oh wow!

I just took a look today at my page stats. I have almost just as many views as favorites!! That means almost everyone that visits this small page favs at least one of my reciepes! *squees!*
I still get amazed at the comments you all leave for me. It makes me want to cook more and interesting foods.
Which begs the question, if you could have one dish (any dish in the world) to eat for the rest of your life ... What would it be?
For me, it would have to be my Nana's baked Ziti with Italian sausage.
Hmm - you know, you have a great idea for a new journal on our page - The ONE dish you cant live without :B
Speaking for myself, of course, its BACON wrapped scallops...
Well, to be more honest, ANYTHING with BACON actually :P
There's nothing like the yummy taste of raw salmon, especially cut from the belly <3
Salmon sashimi will make my day too. Lots of it <3
I can tell one dish I miss. My mother used to make apricot cockles. They were made from dried apricots that were reconstituted overnight then put between two sort of cake/pastry pieces. She would top them with pink icing and a little shredded coconut. Unfortunately she died before I realised she had never written the recipe down and I have never had them again.
I have reconstructed many of my grandmother's and mother's recipes from partial instructions, verbal help from other relatives and even my wobbly memory. But this is one that I lost.
*hugs*
For the appetizer (if you can consider this one), the specific brand of fries (haven't found out who makes them this way out of the bag/etc yet) that I think is breaded and comes out crispy with a coating, slathered with mozzarella and provolone, with crispy shreds of bacon.
Main course would be mixed Jack Daniel's steak and chicken, with a side of peas or baked beans, and some of the little brown loaves of bread they serve at the outback streakhouse.
I'd have to include a side of pears or perhaps fruit cocktail, to get all my vitamins from and avoid vitamin C deficiency.
And finally for dessert? Hm.. tough call. I'd probably want to go old school and have a properly made cheesecake, but if THAT was true, it'd have to be the kind my one great aunt used to bring up from Texas whenever she came up to visit my grandparents, which I haven't had in about 15 years.
No more food for you
