I clean my plate on airplanes.<BR/><BR/>People mock me for loving instant mashed potatoes. It's not that I don't love (love <I>love</I>) <I>real</I> mashed potatoes. I just love them so much, I don't draw the line at instant. (Well, I draw the line at certain <I>brands</I> of instant. I am quite discriminating there)Ritahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03823648489427679440noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1368354560485761030.post-77932532871361475502008-12-05T02:20:00.000-08:002008-12-05T02:20:00.000-08:00Oh God, oh God no.

I had cafeteria food maybe once a month in elementary school (chile con carne Fridays), and literally once in high school (the pizza went straight into the garbage with one bite to mark it's passage from table to tray scraping). Since then it's been home-cooked almost all the way. I do like American cheese grilled-cheese, and In 'n Out burgers, but past that, I'm a snob! I admit it!

That's it, nothing else. And then I sit in the parking lot and savor the artificial-ness of it all. (why hasn't someone thought to package up that gravy and put it in the refrigerated section next to Pillsbury biscuits?) I think I do this because I miss the school lunch Thanksgiving Feast of yore. KFC is the closest thing to it. <BR/><BR/>Gobble, gobble.<BR/><BR/>dianeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1368354560485761030.post-69602759522194152612008-11-25T21:18:00.000-08:002008-11-25T21:18:00.000-08:00I once ate a mushy blob of lima beans at a hospita...I once ate a mushy blob of lima beans at a hospital in Atlanta that were simply divine.<BR/><BR/><BR/>Happy IFD!<BR/><BR/>;-)<BR/><BR/>RobinDisco Mermaidshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16749764215612594204noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1368354560485761030.post-50011876476506572542008-11-25T17:27:00.000-08:002008-11-25T17:27:00.000-08:00Hello, fellow Tenner!

Like you said in the earlier post, I find it a wonderful thing that the vast majority of the kidlit writing community is so very supportive. It's encouraging, you know? Makes me all warm and gooey inside. Or maybe that was your institutional food post??

When I was in the hospital after having my children, my favorite time of the day was the arrival of the plastic tray of hospital food.
