Sprinkles

So what's the deal with sprinkles? They make your ice cream or cupcake nice and colorful, but they don't really add flavor, do they? In fact, they're kind of chalky and not good, and when they melt they leave really ugly runny color. I don't think I'm pro-sprinkles. Anybody sprinkles fans out there care to explain the appeal?

i think it's a texture thing. but if you're going for texture i'd really rather add cookie dough or chocolate chips or something like that. although sprinkles are pretty : ) we miss you here!

also i understand chocolate sprinkles, because they actually have flavor.

Song for the day

Pickled eggs in the corner store
Candy, pops, chips, counter JAAAAR!
Eyes bright, mouth watering
Reach in with hands, not tongue
Fingers wading in vinegar and brine
Grab me a pickled egg
Pickled eggs, pickled eggs, pickled eggs!
Oh how I love to eat
Piiiicklllled eeeeeeggs...

Food

Wah.

I haven't posted here in, like, a really long time.

Like, so long that I'm reading the posts on this front page and not recognizing them! I'm learning interesting things about myself.

Scary.

But thanks for continuing to come by!

Part of the reason I haven't posted here in so long is that this was meant to be a coffeehouse discussion forum type place (notice that many or most of the posts involve questions for you to answer) (see Puffintoad and Eschemo Survivor's dialogue below) and people don't participate. All the other posts are about food, because I love it so.

So.

But.

The other day I came home from the grocery store as excited as a kid on Christmas morning (and it wasn't even Christmas— it was two days after). Why? Because I'd just bought a bunch of my favorite comfort foods, and I had all afternoon and evening off to EAT THEM! I tore into that stuff like a-- well, like a kid on Christmas morning... but I already said that.

Ninety minutes into my glut on salt and vinegar potato chips, mallomars (new one), parmesean slices on table water crackers plus and minus sopressata sausage slices, granny smith apple dipped in caramel, sushi, pasta, etc. all with an incidental (i.e. not typically my favorite) sauvignon blanc, I wondered to myself, how do other people do this?

So. What are your favorite comfort foods?

Popcorn. Preferably popped on the stove, but microwave will do.
