October 31

How I Celebrated



Caramel apple pops (classic) and we tried making candy apples (my first time). So, I found out I prefer caramel apples and I really don't like how the candy coating sticks to your teeth. Terrible. Had to swish water in my mouth for a long time to get it all unstuck.

History

I have had several caramel apples, but not any other kind of candy apples. I have seen the red kind and wondered what they tasted like.
One of the reasons why having a kid is a good thing, is you get to go trick or treating and get free candy from them. It is too hard to convince people to give trick or treating adults candy.

Interesting concept that we are so dependent on store bought goods or farmed goods, that I wonder how many could make it foraging out there. I don't know if I could! I would probably end up dying from some poisonous plant or diseased animal.

 Pumpkin is a vegetable I do enjoy eating. I saw mince pie at the store once and I thought it sounded disgusting and I was curious why they would call it mince meat pie if there is not meat in it. I guess it is supposed to have meat in it. Sugary meat sounds kind of good, I mean maple bacon is really good, and so is honey glazed ham, but I don't know about meat and raisins.

These chips weren't too greasy, but they kinda count. Didn't want to go out to buy anything today. didn't film my dinner either which may have counted? Stir fry noodle? I really didn't use a lot of oil so both of them were a bit of a fail maybe for the celebration, but a win for my body.

 Greasy food is really good. My tolerance has dropped recently which is also good. I think part of it has to do with switching to healthier oils and not frying things very often. It does seem to make greasy restaurant food taste that much better though.

History

Punchbowl sweetest day and cacciatore
Cacciatore sounds quite simple. I bet you could make a cacciatore with everything here except maybe candy, that might be gross. But pheasant mushroom and wine? You betcha.

History

Punchbowl
Insects as food
 I got an award at camp (a made up award) for catching and frying grasshoppers. Of course I dipped them in chocolate. During the frying process, all their innards came out so I wasn't worried I was eating poop. It made it a lot easier to stomach.

Crispy are my fave, but I am not really a fan of the smores. Too much... vanilla maybe? Yorkshire pudding is pretty bland, but I like that it can go with anything.

Diet Helpers 

  • Sugar Free

    You can probably find some sugar free candy like m&ms out there, but I can't find a homemade recipe even for candy coating.
  • Gluten Free

    Gluten free yorkshire pudding
  • Vegetarian

    Yes

History

 Punchbowl
M&Ms are my favorite candy. The only thing that could possibly make them better is if they used the cadbury mini egg chocolate. The shell coating and size of m&ms are perfect. I also love all the flavor variety, crispy being my favorite.

History

Punchbowl
 Gumbo always looks and sounds so good. I do not think I have had it, and it kind of irritates me because one of my grandmas is from Louisiana and I feel like I have not reaped any southern food benefits.

History

Punchbowl
 Decorating is the other reason why I really like cooking as an artistic expression and release. Oh, and if you haven't tried mochi, an easy way to get some is to go to your local froyo shop. It has become increasingly popular as a topping.

We went to Jersey Mike's today (my first time). Pretty good stuff. They load it up better than subway and do not skimp on the avocado. The bread is bigger too (wider) but my favorite part was the pickles. They were super thick and very crunchy. Best.

History

 I really do not like moldy cheese. I have a hard time with blue cheese and can't imagine a moldy variety I would enjoy. It makes me wonder if people still eat their cheese with mold on it (the kind that is not frequently bought with mold). Ew. Just, ew.
