   #1. What is your favorite kind of cheese for snacking?
   Laughing Cow Light Swiss Stlye cubes

   #2. What is your favorite kind of jelly?
   Orange Marmalade…the chunkier the better! The local farmers markets have the best stuff around.

   #3. Yogurt. Regular or custard style?
   Regular, with lots of fresh fruit added.

   #4. Share a recipe for a stew or soup.
   Caribbean Bean Stew from Vegan Village

   15 oz can kidney beans, drained and rinsed
   2 cups mixed red, green and yellow peppers, chopped
   14 oz can chopped tomatoes
   4oz / 100g mushrooms, sliced
   1 red onion, finely chopped
   2 cloves garlic, crushed
   1 tbsp oil
   2 sticks celery, chopped
   2 small sweet potatoes, chopped
   1 carrot, diced
   1 TB tomato paste
   1 TB soy sauce
   4 drops of tabasco sauce
   1 tsp paprika
   1 tsp dried thyme
   2 bay leaves
   black pepper
   3 cups vegetable stock

   Preparation:

   Heat the oil in a large pan and gently fry the onion and garlic until softened. Add the tomatoes, tomato paste and soy sauce and cook until pulpy.

   Add all the remaining ingredients and stir well. Bring to the boil, cover and simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.

   Remove the bay leaves and serve. Delicious!

   #1. What is your favorite kind of cheese for snacking?

   String Cheese!

   #2. What is your favorite kind of jelly?

   Mom’s homemade (although she doesn’t make it anymore) strawberry-rhubarb.

   #3. Yogurt. Regular or custard style?

   Neither. I want German yogurt. It’s not as sour, but OH SO GOOD!!!

   #4. Share a recipe for a stew or soup.

   ZIPPY POTATO SOUP (from TOH)
   3/4 pound sliced bacon, diced
   1 medium onion, chopped
   8 to 10 potatoes, peeled and cut into chunks
   1 medium carrot, grated

   1 can (12 ounces) evaporated milk
   2 tablespoons butter
   4-1/2 teaspoons minced fresh parsley
   2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
   1/2 teaspoon ground mustard
   1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
   1/4 teaspoon salt
   1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
   Directions:
   In a large skillet, cook bacon and onion; drain and set aside. In a soup kettle or Dutch oven, cook the potatoes and carrot in water for 20 minutes or until tender (do not drain). Stir in the remaining ingredients and the bacon mixture. Cook for 10 minutes or until heated through. Yield: 14 servings (3-1/2 quarts).

   Um, yeah, my blog…

   I have one, but only got it so I could read other’s blogs in English and not Deutsch (I’m currently in Germany) because of my ISP. Don’t know if I’ll ever “really” blog anything (she says while ducking in embarassment).
