4 Foods Friday



Four Foods Friday - on Sunday this week...sorry, Val!

#1. What’s your favorite form of potatoes?
Smashed with cheese and garlic.
#2. Pie crust. Premade or from scratch?
Premade. I am *way* too lazy to make one from scratch. Well, I take that back. I do make crumb crusts (like graham cracker) from scratch.
#3. Vegetables. Fresh, frozen or canned?
Usually frozen or canned. BUT...yellow squash has to be super fresh. I prefer it from my friend Karen's garden, actually. I can never seem to find it in good condition at the store anymore.
#4. What one dish do you wish you could prepare better?
Gah...any kind of cake. I am terrible at baking. Something always goes wrong! Let's not even talking about trying to ice said cakes. I usually make a thin glaze or use powdered sugar to top my cakes. :p

Wow, veggies fresh from a garden. That would be nice.

I hear you on the yellow squash!
Though I have yet to try it from your friends garden (wink).

Salt, that is my secret. I rub salt on tough cuts of meat, let it sit for a bit then rinse it off just before cooking. It is somewhat like a brine!

I don't have a problem baking cakes, but I've done some terrible cake decorating. They make it look so easy on the Food Network, but I usually end up with a mess.
