It’s All About Me #6

 

“Part of the secret of success in life is to eat what you like and let the food fight it out inside.” (Author unknown)

 

Hello, my lovely friends!

 

       It’s Friday Funday y’all! Today’s blog isabout food. We all have our different things about food and that’s what Paula facts are about. 

 

1. I don’t like onions! As a baby when I was teething my grandma had me teethe on an onion. Also, my sister teethed on a piece of steak and she’s not a fan of that either.

 

2. Even though I’m not a fan of onions I do love French onion dip, sour cream and onion chips and the big on onion rings. Now if I bit into the onion ring and the onion hangs out I’ll take the whole thing out. I know, I know nuts huh?

 

3. Ever since I was a kid my order at Burger King is a Whopper with cheese, no onions and a order of onions rings. One time I was waiting for my order and heard someone announce the order and what it was and another guy came to get it. We laughed it off and one of my friends said I missed my perfect mate because who eats no onions, but onions rings. LOL

 

4. As a kid if we went out to eat at a sit down restaurant I would get so nervous that it would make me sick to my stomach. We would order food, but I would end of taking most of it if not the whole thing home. Once we were home I’d eat no problem. I use to say it was too fancy for me and that made me nervous.

 

5. Every year for our birthdays my mom would make us a favorite meal and we would also go out to eat. There were two restaurants I’d pick Casa Bonita or Red Lobster. My homemade dinner was always a steak and mac-n-cheese.

 

6. I learned how to cook from hanging out in the kitchen with my mom. She would be making homemade tortillas and there I was asking a million questions on how to do it. Later on as a teen I was the first one home and would make dinner. I’d call my mom at work and ask her how to cook what she pulled out and what temperature to cook it at.

 

Thank you so much for stopping by.

I wish you a good morning, afternoon or evening wherever you are.

Until next time… Adios!

  2. OMG! I cannot imagine teething on an onion and I can totally understand that you don’t like them now.

    Huh. Wonder what made you so nervous eating out! But at least you took it home and ate it.

    I learned so much about cooking from my Mom and Dad and my paternal Grandma just watching them cook in the kitchen. Priceless. I am so glad I have their cookbooks!

  3. It's Kathy. I gave at least one of my children cooked liver to teethe on, wanted her to get the protein. I actually love onions in and on pretty much everything - as long as they are cooked. I would never eat raw onions. My ex-husband was sensitive to onions so I couldn't put them in anything. When he eats with us for a family meal like Thanksgiving I have to make things with and without onions. My favorite onion rings comes from Broadway Bar and Grill - they are the big breaded ones but not too greasy. I have never enjoyed cooking - so much work. And now after my back surgery it's kind of hard to stand up for so long. My mom was a great cook!

  4. It might be the difference between "cooked" and "raw" onion? I had an office mate once who was that way about carrots... he would not eat them raw, but when his wife cooked them, they were his favorite!

    Your childhood / teen cooking instruction reminds me of my own... mom took on a second shift job so we older girls learned to cook three or four simple suppers to feed the rest of the family. Dad was a schedule-stickler in terms of meals, so it didn't matter when mom worked!
