Write about food
The 500 Words
I don’t eat much, this is just fact. Ask anyone who knows me
well. So writing a post about food is challenging. So I’ve decided to put my
own twist on it and talk about food memories. Most of the time when I eat out,
it’s because it is a special occasion and I’m meeting up with friends. So I
will tell you a few stories that just happen to include food.
I love sushi. My favorite roll is a Las Vegas roll. On more
than one occasion when I lived in the Humanities House, we had house sushi
nights. It was a blast! My first choice food for any kind of special occasion is
definitely sushi. I also like Philly rolls, Rangoon rolls, and almost anything
with salmon. The first time I ever ate sushi was on a date. It was a great date
too; we ended up dating for a few weeks. Anyway, my date made sure I sampled
many different kinds of sushi so that I could have the full experience. From
that day forward, I had a new love, for Vegas rolls.
I really like Café Rio. I usually treat myself to a
quesadilla every now and then (I also have a punch card; buy 10, get 1 free!).
More often than not, I get a sweet pork barbacoa quesadilla, but if I feel like
splurging, I go for the fire-grilled steak. I’ve tried to replicate the pork
using the crock-pot, but I haven’t quite mastered it just yet. When I spend one-on-one
time with my friends, this is the place we usually frequent.
My favorite thing to cook at home is potato soup. I’m in
love with Bear Creek soup mix, so I usually wait until it goes on sale and I
stock up on the packets. I will cook the entire package at once, and then live
off of it for about a week. It is always so delicious, I just need to learn how
to make bread bowls and I’ll be in business! I’m pretty sure I could find a “how-to”
tutorial on Pinterest, I just need to look. The first time I had this soup was
at a Relief Society enrichment activity; everyone needed to bring a pair of
shoes that said something about their personality. It was a fun activity, but I
especially enjoyed the shoe metaphor.
I do enjoy cooking. I don’t do a whole lot of it because,
well, I’m actually not sure. Maybe because cooking feels more like a chore. I
want to find more way to enjoy it, maybe that should be one of my goals next
year. Seriously though, my favorite food is a simply roast beef and provolone
sandwich on sourdough bread with light mayo. I’m pretty low-maintenance when it
comes to food. I don’t crave fancy or exotic things, but I am interested in
trying new things. I really want to learn how to grill, then I could make bacon
cheeseburgers all summer long.
