I remember watching an interview that Cookie Monster did with a young reporter who was searching out the meaning of the term 'NOM' which is another name for FOOD. Apparently it comes from the sound Cooking Monster makes when he tears into a cookie - "OM NOM NOM NOM"
When I caption my cat pictures I used the word 'NOM' all the time to refer to food. It just sounds funny to me. If 'LOL' and 'OMG' can get into the Oxford English Dictionary then 'NOM' certainly deserves to be in that book.
Since I have been diagnosed with type 2 Diabetes, I have really had to watch my diet so when I DO eat something that is not good for me (I refuse to cut everything with sugar out of my life because life is meant to be lived) I try to choose something that makes the cheating worthwhile. It's all about moderation.
I can't wait until summer when the cherries are around and will eat them everyday if I can. "Hello, my name is Calvin and I am a cherryaholic."
I also love pancakes. They are like crack to me. Nothing better than cold pancakes the next day. As kids we would make strawberry jam sammiches and substitute pancakes for bread.
Gummi Bears are my favorite candy. You can imagine how much I was drooling all over my keyboard when I first saw that for 30 bucks you can buy this monster gummi bear.
•Approx: 5 Pounds! 10 inches tall!
•Bigger than a football!
•Over 1,000 times the size of a typical gummy bear!
•A whopping 51 servings!
I read an article some time back about the last meals of death row inmates. The myth is that you can have all your favorite stuff has persisted forever but often restrictions are put on what a 'last meal' can consist of. What would be YOUR last meal. This would be mine:
seafood soup (my Dad's recipe)
double cheeseburger with fries
steak and lobster
garlic mashed potatoes with fried mushrooms
2 litre Pepsi
lemon and cherry tarts
