Four Foods On Friday

posted in blogging, home |

Well, I completely missed doing this one last week. It was July 4, so I took that day off from blogging and the computer in general, to spend time with my family. I am here today, barely. I’m getting ready for our trip to Tennessee and so I’m running around like a chicken with my head cut off! I’m not sure I’ll have access to the internet next Friday, so I wanted to be sure to get this done today. There is no way I could miss doing my favorite meme 3 weeks in a row!

So, here it is. If you’d like to participate in this fun weekly meme, head on over to Fun, Crafts and Recipes and let Valmg know you’re playing along.

This weeks questions and my answers:

#1. Cake. Buttercream, whipped cream or ice cream? Oh! I love all three!! One of our favorites though is the frozen custard cake from Culvers.

#2. When entertaining do you use real, paper, plastic or styrofoam dishes? That really depends. For birthdays and outdoor parties, it’s usually paper. I don’t use styrofoam anytime, it doesn’t recycle too well.

#3. When hosting a party do you cook, have it catered or go to a restaurant? I usually cook, although, this past weekend we brought in food and it was wonderful. It even came with all the plastic serving utensils and saved me a ton of work.

#4. Share a recipe that you frequently serve when having a party. We don’t party too much, but I would have to say that in the summer, I do tend to serve deviled eggs more frequently than any other time. Everybody makes fun of deviled eggs, but they sure do disappear in a hurry.

Boil eggs, cool under running water and peel. (Doing this right away helps keep the shell from stick to the cooked egg). Remove yoke into a bowl. Using a fork, break apart cooked yokes. Add tablespoon of mustard, 2-3 tablespoons of mayonnaise, a pinch of salt, 1/4 tsp. of celery salt, and a dash of pepper. Mix. Adjust all amount to your liking. Taste. If satisfied, drop by spoonfuls into cooked egg whites. Sprinkle lightly with paprika. Serve.

    Heidi – I tend to forget to buy certain important ingredients for dishes when I’m entertaining and so things don’t always work out the way I’d like them to. It was so nice to have all our food prepared by professionals. Plus, we had so much left over, I didn’t have to cook for a few days! :-D

    Karen – I always forget to make deviled eggs. I like them to be refrigerated, so I don’t like to make ‘em at the last minute IYKWIM. Oh, I sent a trackback to Val, so she knows I’m in, thanks! :-D

    Clair – I know, I only make deviled eggs once or twice a year. It’s probably better that way, I tend to eat way too many of them!
