Polls: Food & Beverage

In America, where I'm from, we have a tradition where we get a fire going really hot on Christmas Eve. Then, we gather 'round the fire to see if Santa Claus can still make it down the chimney, in spite of temperatures that can reach well over 500 degree Fahrenheit. (That's 260 Celsius for the non-scientific Europeans).

This really gets the American kids excited and they love to have a bite of Santa before he uses his magical power to regrow his skin. For those of you with a fireplace, do you prefer your Santa really black and crispy or slightly pink on the inside?

I meant "spicey" as in food that has lots of spices. Doesn't necessarily have to be hot like pepper hot but they can be. They usually are tho. Like Curry, Kebabs, Tacos, Mexican Mole Sauce, Jollof Rice, Satay, Nasi Lemak, Jamaican Pattie or etc. It's food from South Asia, Southeast Asia (closer to India), Middle East, Africa, Carribbean and South America that has lots of those. I really love those. I wish my country is more familiarized with more spices actually.

I do, we work well as a team, it's fun, explorative. She has good techniques and ideas I've deployed in my role as head chef.

What's a way you can have fun together getting food prepared?

I realistically have made all of these myself minus pie, I haven't baked a pie before but if I can really only choose one I would rather make my own milkshake. I probably would attempt of creating an Oreo shake. What about you boys and girls which delicious treat would you want to bake?

I am informing you guys so that you don't make the same mistake as I did. My life has changed ever since I started grinding coffee beans. Although now my coffee feels Sandy when drinking it, compared to in the passed it was easy to swallow the coffee beans because they were, well beans.

How do you guys make your coffee? I hope my post was helpful.
