Spritzie Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 When it was just me, I never went all out with cooking. I pretty much lived on cereal, grilled chicken, burgers, and then food out. :laughingsmiley: I always loved making french toast and enchiladas, but I haven't made either in years. (I told my husband I'd make him my grandma's recipe for french toast for our 2 anniversary, but he ended up making me his mom's french toast instead.)

rachiee Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 Oh, I forgot that I can also make pancakes and grilled cheese. But whenever I make grilled cheese, it is really greasy and fattening. So I usually let my mom make grilled cheese if I want it- she doesn't use as much butter as I do. :P The next thing I want to learn how to make is french toast. I'm pretty sure it isn't all that hard to make, but I rarely have anything for breakfast that isn't cereal. I need to learn how to cook more stuff because I don't want my diet to consist almost entirely of pasta, frozen entrees and cereal when I get older :laughingsmiley: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spritzie Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 French toast is super easy, as long as it doesn't get burnt. It's my favorite breakfast food, though I rarely have it, unless we go out somewhere for breakfast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rachiee Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 Whenever I go out to breakfast I usually order a waffle with powdered sugar and end up eating less than half of it. That can probably be because I always order a hot chocolate with breakfasts regardless of whether it's -10 or 100 degrees outside. ^_^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spritzie Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 Hot chocolate is always required with breakfast out. I get it no matter what the temperature is as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stephiime Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 Hot chocolate is the best @___@ ... my mother does not approve of it tho because she thinks it's unhealthy. Boohoo. I drink it occasionally when I make a visit to Timmy's x) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tedhaun Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 I always enjoyed drinking hot chocolate during the winter season, but I've been more of a chocolate milk and coffee type of person myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spritzie Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 I generally keep a hot chocolate mix in my desk drawer at work during the winter, and I try to start the day with a glass of chocolate milk since I get up too early to want to deal with breakfast.

rachiee Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 I don't like chocolate milk as much as regular milk. /: Whenever I'm making hot cocoa at home, I usually put in two packets, fill the cup about halfway and barely stir it. Why? I LOVE the hot cocoa "sludge" at the bottom of the glass. (The hot, wet and slightly clumpy part) I put in two packets of cocoa because adding just one packet makes it taste kind of bland. (to me, anyway) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Meepit Commando Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 I also drink hot chocolate in the summer and slurpees in the winter, also I cant stand the sludge at the bottom of HC, so I stir my Hot Cocoa forever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tedhaun Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 I've been fond of the chocolately "sludge" at the bottom of my chocolate milk and hot chocolate glasses. I never had a Slurpee in my entire life, probably since I never go to 7-Eleven very much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wembly Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 Milk and I don't get along and I don't really like chocolate that much so not so much me getting super excited about hot chocolate, sorry friends. You know what I saw in the grocery store today that I really should have bought for breakfast was Alphabits cereal. I haven't had those in so long! Apparently its a different recipe then it used to be though sadly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rachiee Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 I don't think I've ever had Alphabits (if so, it's been ages), and I've never had a Slurpee. I've never even set foot in a 7-11 :laughingsmiley: This is kind of random yet still relating somewhat to what I'm talking about, but I've also never set foot in a Wawa. It's kind of surprising considering I've been to South Jersey quite a few times (mostly around the Shore) and I think they're like, everywhere around there. xP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tedhaun Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 I used to enjoy Alpha-Bits when I was a kid, I liked the ones with the marshmallows in it. I've been fond of cereals with marshmallows in them, hence being a guy for Cap'n Crunch and a good number of chocolately cereals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rachiee Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 I used to love (and eat pretty much nothing but) sugary cereals for breakfast when I was younger. I remember always picking out the marshmallows in a box of Lucky Charms and then, a few days later, I'd have a box of nothing but toasted oats. :laughingsmiley: Since then, my palate has expanded and I've developed a taste for less-sugary cereals like Cheerios. (Cheerios used to be my least favourite cereal and now they're my favourite cereal, ever). I still like eating sugary cereals every now and then though. BTW, does anyone else remember the Neopets cereal? I forget what it was called but it came out around 2006, was made by General Mills and tasted like berries.

Seriously, next time you are near one you definitely need to go in there. Amazing made to order subs, smoothies, mac n cheese, soup and oh so much more. I guarantee you will not be sorry.

khaos Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 They hav Neo cereal? :O I want it. :P Do they still make it? :q I've been to 7-11 i think one time, and have no idea what a Wawa is :worried: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rachiee Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 @ Khaos: Sadly, no :( I haven't seen it in stores since...April 2006 or something. Neopets needs to renew their sponsorship with General Mills so I can get my Neopets cereal and feel like I'm 8 years old again. :P Also, a Wawa is a gas station/convenience store chain with locations mainly in South Jersey, Pennsylvania, that general area. Unfortunately, there are none in New York, let alone North Jersey D: @ Wembly: Next time I'm in South Jersey, I'll nag my parents to stop at a Wawa. :D How about that?

It tasted too much like Trix Cereal in my opinion. Here's the box: I thought that it'd be a lot like Cap'n Crunch's Crunch Berries, but I guess not. Ironically, I have two empty boxes of them in my closet after 5 or so years. :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wembly Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 Yes, that would be acceptable. I think I passed like 4 Wawas on my way home tonight and its only like a 20 minute drive. So yeah, they're everywhere but its okay because they're awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rachiee Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 I have two empty boxes of them in my closet after 5 or so years. :P srsly? If I wanted to keep my empty box of Neopets cereal, my parents probably wouldn't have let me .-. ( When I was 8 (and possibly 9) I went through a hoarding phase where I kept just about everything I could cram into my closet and my corner of the living room /: ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khaos Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 A hoarding phase? That's a new one xD I used to keep a stash of newspapers in my room when i was 5 or 6, but my dad threw 'em all out before i even got 3. x_x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't had those in so long! Apparently its a different recipe then it used to be though sadly. You should have! That was my favorite cereal when I was younger. I loved the marshmallow one. I'd totally forgotten about it until I saw the regular one at Walmart a year ago. I haven't seen the marshmallow one anywhere though. I wonder if they still make it.

Wembly Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 Post now makes alphabits cereal and I just checked their website and it doesn't show the ones with marshmallows on it, they supposedly changed the recipe so its now made with whole grains and such so I guess they stopped making the ones with marshmallows.

Spritzie Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 :( It's not worth eating if there's no marshmallows in it. That's the only reason I liked it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
