I love bacon because it is delicious and yummy and tasty and good. It works in sandwiches and vegetables and ice cream and breakfast plates and everything else. Who wouldn't love bacon?

If I'm not eating at a restaurant, it's usually a salad of some sort, often with grilled chicken on it. Unless it's football season, at which point, I often whip up a nice batch of chili.

I went to Wales as a very young child and have a distinct memory of the ears on Snap, Crackle, and Pop being more pointy on the Rice Krispies box than they were in the USA

Does beer count as a snack? If not, then just about anything crunchy, but usually tortilla chips and salsa or queso.

Just about anything from Goat Lady Dairy.

Chili, though it tends to be more of a fall (or football season?) dish, it's still nice to get a blast of temperature and spice heat in the winter.

I'm definitely a big fan of just using water instead of store-bought stock.

favorite to bake is definitely standard toll house chocolate chip cookies.

I had been going to the same restaurant/bar on a regular basis for about 5 or 6 years and had gotten to know the vast majority of the staff (wait staff, bartenders, barbacks, some of the kitchen staff, the owner). I arrived for breakfast one morning and they were short-staffed in the kitchen, so the lone person working front of the house wanted to get back to help out. Thus I got my only experience working front of the house (I got paid with a free breakfast!) as I got to seat a couple of people as they came in and took a drink order or two while the kitchen was caught up.
