1. What is my favorite food?

I’m not sure I have a favorite food. Genuinely. There are foods I hate, foods I dislike, foods I tolerate, and foods I like more than most, but I’m not sure there’s anything that stands head and shoulders above the rest.

Does sweet tea count?

Like any good southerner (I’m a native Mississippian), I was raised on the stuff, and my sweet tea supplies are sacred enough to me that I had a full meltdown when my roommate’s friends used my tea spoon to scoop macaroni.

Because I know I must sound insane: this is a wooden spoon whose sole purpose in this world is to make up my sweet tea. I don’t wash it with soap, I don’t use it for anything else, and I made it clear to my roommate not to use my wooden spoon. So when I found my spoon in the sink, covered in crusty mac n’ cheese, I lost what was left of my sanity.

Some of my alternate favorites are No Bake cookies, grilled cheese, cantaloupe with cinnamon, home-grown tomatoes, sauteed potatoes with caramelized onions, and bubblegum snowcones (but only the pink ones because blue bubblegum is a recipe for green poop).
