What food are you most looking forward to munching on during the Super Bowl?
I'm making pressed sandwiches, which I love and haven't had in foreverrrrr!
What restaurant can you visit over and over again without getting sick of?
Anything that serves pho. My favorite is Viet Thai Paradise on Riva Road in Annapolis.
What's your guilty pleasure/comfort food?
Kraft macaroni and cheese. Yup. Can't lie.
What do you eat when your DH is out of town/away for the night?
Either spaghetti or I go out and get pho. YUM
What kitchen gadget or appliance do you use most?
I have way too many gadgets, but I definitely use my slow-cooker the most.
If you could upgrade *one* thing in your kitchen, what would it be?
We're in the process of upgrading the kitchen, so this is a tough call because a lot of stuff needs it. I'm drooling over double ovens with the small oven on the top and bigger oven on the bottom, and I think we're actually going to buy one soon. However, we also need new floors, counters, and a fridge...

What food are you most looking forward to munching on during the Super Bowl? We'll watch the Super Bowl, but we aren't having a party or anything so no special food.
What restaurant can you visit over and over again without getting sick of? Subway, but that doesn't really count as a restaurant. Used to be Silver Diner. I went there daily (no joke) in college. I can't think of another restaurant that we go to often.
What's your guilty pleasure/comfort food? Macaroni & cheese
What do you eat when your DH is out of town/away for the night? See above. Macaroni & cheese or Subway.

If you could upgrade *one* thing in your kitchen, what would it be? If I can only pick 1, the floors. They were DH's first tile project and looked great at first. But you can't lay tile on uneven subfloor or you'll need to redo the floors in a couple years (which is where we are now).

What kitchen gadget or appliance do you use most? I have this thing Pampered Chef sells called a "Scoop and Drain" that looks like it would be for scooping the cat poop out of a litter box.

I even will open a can of beans pour them in the cradle, and drain them over the sink. Or rinse veggies in it. It's great!
