four foods on Friday 77
Hey, I’m back… from nowhere. Sorry I missed last week’s FFOF but I did get around to commenting on a few of your blogs. Well, here I am, with a few days left till the end of my 30-day vegetarian diet. That’s pretty exciting but so are this week’s questions 
.
#1. Anele’s question. Do you have a natural ability to cook or do you feel you just “get by?”
I learnt to cook during my college days so I wouldn’t starve. Strangely enough, though I’ve been interested in cooking and baking from a young age, I never learnt to cook. I’d like to think I have some teeny-weeny bit of natural ability hidden somewhere but right now, I just enjoy playing with my food, learning from others and being adventurous and creative 
.
#2. Why do you buy the size eggs that you buy?
Medium, it’s just the right size per serving as I usually pair eggs with other dishes.
#3. Do you have any cooking “rules”?
Minimize the oil (fat), sugar and salt. Try to keep things simple. Don’t waste food, get creative with leftovers and cooking disasters and try to turn them into something edible .
#4. Fresh corn. Yellow, white or bicolored?
Yellow.

Will you be glad to be done with your vegetarian diet? Missed you last week!

Well yes and no. The diet’s been great, I feel great. The only time I miss the meat is when eating out with the kids and I can only have soda and fries. Have to admit I can’t wait to sink my teeth into a steak or something sinful, haha. Wednesday’s the day, yippee
I don’t like to waste food either and like to use leftovers. Sometimes I’ll make a soup or stew and put leftovers in it.
I totally agree with you about not wasting anything. Even if something taste like crap, I try to find anotehr use for it so that I do not have to throw anything out.

Yep, so easy and most times, leftovers taste much better because they’ve had time to absorb all the flavors

Yeah, actually I love leftovers/disasters, I love figuring out what I can turn them into. They’re such a creative challenge
I’m a big fan of leftovers. My husband, not so much.
@corrin
Mine either.
