Personal History (in place of Sunday)

I'm answering for a weeks...



What is your favorite food and how do you prepare it?



I have a few favorite foods. The first is Chicken Broccoli casserole. It has broken pieces of Chicken with frozen broccoli. Basically you top it with cream of chicken and cheddar cheese soup and then top it off with bread crumbs and bake it in the oven at 350 degrees for about 30 minutes.

The other foods that I love are most vegetables and many fruits, and all kinds of fish. I really love fish I wish my budget would allow me to eat it more often.



What is your favorite dessert?

When it comes to my favorite dessert I would have to be something that involves ice cream. I love Ice cream Sundae's as well as ice cream floats and one of my favorites that I rarely get is fried ice cream. I also really enjoy ice cream and brownies. If I had to pick another dessert without ice cream it would probably be a pie. Specifically banana cream or pumpkin.


What is your favorite poem?

I'm don't know a lot of poetry so I can't really say, but one poem that I really enjoy is the one entitled sick, by Shel Silverstein. I will have to research more and more poems to find my true favorite.


Do you have a favorite author? Who? Why? Tell about favorite books as a child, youth, and adult. What do books mean to you?

I can't say that there is one author where I have read their books over and over. When I was younger I loved the Boxcar Children. As a preteen to teenager I loved the Tales of Sweet Valley High and anything written by Jack Weyland (a well known LDS author). I loved and cried when I read his first book Charly. As an adult books have opened up a whole new world. I love to learn things about myself and other people. A few of the books I have loved are; The New Peoplemaking, by Virginia Satir; The five love languages: How to Express Heartfelt Commitment, by Gary Chapman; and one of my favorite books is entitled; Left to Tell, Discovering God admist the Rwandan Holocaust, by Immaculee Ilibagiza. I also really enjoyed a jr. high book entitled, East, by Edith Pattou. It has been a real joy each and every time I find a new great book.
