Six Degrees of Randomness - My Favorite Foods


My buddy Amanda over at Moving Forward tagged me to do 6 Degrees of Randomness. Now I already did this on my Lily's Licorice blog - you can read my 6 Degrees there. But it got me to thinking that I should do something on that order here. So here are my 6 Random Favorite Foods of All Time. I guess it says "random", but I actually put it in order to what I really love the most. #1 being my all time favorite.

6 Favorite Foods

1. Filet Mignon - nothing can make a finer meal than a good Filet Mignon!! Especially with a loaded baked potato. Now my nutty sister puts ketchup on hers. Can you believe that!!

2. My grandmother's chocolate chip cake - the best part of our birthdays as a kid were the fancy chocolate chip cakes my grandmother made for us. Chocolate chip cake for breakfast was always the best! Unfortunately I cannot make those cakes like my grandma did, but even in a memory, they are my second favorite. Ooo - how I'd love a piece right now, and with a nice cold glass of milk.

3. Lou Malnati's Pizza - people who know me will be shocked that this is not #1. However, in terms of pizza - Lou Malnati's is #1. It's the dough, and the cheese, and they sauce. It's everything! My mouth just waters looking at the picture on the link.

4. Italian Beef Sandwiches - you can only find good ones in Chicago. My mom used to get ours from Rex's. Mm Mm. It was a staple at Christmas Eve dinner too. Now I'm trying to find the perfect recipe so I can make it myself. They don't have real Italian Beef down here in the south.

5. My mom's cheeseburgers - here's the post I did on them already.

6. Chicken Kiev AND Chicken Croquets - not sure which I like better. All that coated chicken slathered in butter or the sauce is just too good. I remember my mom getting frozen Chicken Croquets at the Howard Johnson restaurant after church some Sundays. They were really good. They don't exist anymore, so I make them from the recipe out of the Fannie Farmer cookbook. Yum! Those are way better than the frozen Howard Johnson ones.

So what are your 6 favorite foods?
