My Favorite Food

     Happy Monday! I'm not sure why, but lately I have been having the itch to cook! I've made dinner for the past two nights, and I have to say that they tasted pretty good! Last night I made a Southern dinner and tonight I made honey lime shrimp (I found it on Pinterest and it was amazing), salad, fettuccine Alfredo, and some peaches (which were just out of a can). I've also been making more nutritious breakfasts and lunches. I just really love to cook! Also, as an update on my new fitness regime, I did my yoga workout for today and it was really fun! Yoga is my new addition :) Anyway, I thought I would make a list of my top favorite foods, which changes all the time and I'm sure I'll think of more things that I love, but here goes:

1. Nutella

DUH. Nutella is obviously food from the gods and if you don't like it then you're wrong. Haha but seriously I could eat this stuff all day. If I could only eat one food for the rest of my life, it would be this.

2. Pizza

Oh, pizza. I feel like I'm in love when I eat pizza...with the pizza. It's just so perfect. Those Italians sure did know what they were doing when they came up with this beauty.

3. Ice Cream

I have to admit it: ice cream is my weakness. It's just so pretty and there are so many flavors and it's so delicious! I've learned to not try to avoid ice cream, I fail every time. I bet you think I'm 300 pounds judging from my first three favorite foods!

4. Filet Mignon

Oh man my mouth is watering by just looking at the picture! I usually have this for my birthday dinner, which makes it more special than the first three foods because I only eat it once a year! It's so delicious and tender and perfect.

5. Shrimp

This shrimp is the honey lime shrimp that I made for dinner tonight (not my picture, but it's from the website where I got the recipe: thedoughwillriseagain.com) and it was so good. I also made shrimp and grits last night and I've come to the conclusion that shrimp is my new favorite food. I might even have to eat for dinner on April 16th, which is my birthday! It really is the fruit of the sea. As Bubba said, "You can barbecue it, boil it, broil it, bake it, saute it. Dey's uh, shrimp-kabobs, shrimp creole, shrimp gumbo. Pan fried, deep fried, stir-fried. There's pineapple shrimp, lemon shrimp, coconut shrimp, pepper shrimp, shrimp soup, shrimp stew, shrimp salad, shrimp and potatoes, shrimp burger, shrimp sandwich. That- that's about it."

Carpe Diem,
