Sunday Social

It's time for Sunday Social with Neely 
at A Complete Waste of Makeup!

If you could only eat one thing for the rest of your life, what would it be?

What's your guilty pleasure/comfort food?

Edy's Thin Mint Ice Cream!

What's the weirdest/craziest thing you've ever eaten?

My great aunt was completely crazy and amazing.  She always did and said the most insane things.  She definitely knew how to live.  However, one day while I was spending time with her she made me try cow brain...ick! 
Awwww, I miss her!

What foods do you avoid at all costs?

I have actually learned to eat quite a few things that I never thought I would.
Nonetheless, I do struggle with buffets (too many people touching my food) and I do not deal well with my food touching or mixing.

What meal reminds you of your childhood?

Spaghetti!
Spaghetti has been my favorite meal for as long as I can remember and my mom would always fix it for me for special days and sometimes just because.
My momma makes amazing spaghetti, no one can beat it!

Share one of your favorite recipes and the story behind it.
