We all have them...what are yours? Ya know, the addictions, compulsions, fascinations you have that people are surprised to hear coming from you.

Probably most of these are food related. For me it is donuts. In the absence of truly fresh Krispy Kremes in my area, the vice is a chocolate or maple iced long john stuffed with buttercreme (not custard, buttercreme like they ice a cake with). Fried dough with sugary icing, stuffed with butter--how far wrong can you go???

On a larger and more long lasting scale, my friends from when I lived in NYC and the Chicago suburbs, in addition to family, are just blown away that I chose to buy a small farm and raise goats.

Full priced birthday dinner at RC: crab stuffed mushrooms, diver scallops, fillet mignon, potatoes au grautin, broccoli au grautin, cheesecake, a dirty martini and a glass of cabernet and a snifter of Remy Martin XO.

I do not have any kind of food addiction. Years of K-rats, C-rats and the new meals unfit to eat has removed any food addiction tendancies. I am addicted to Computers and Sci Fi...winking smiley

Shopping Bama and parts of Georgia.
I'm still learning 24/7.

But the computers and Dee Shop's RC are not surprises. I think what is surprising is that after years of K-rats and C-rats you don't have an addiction to asparagus or something else that is fresh and fragile.

Not really. Plus, most of that food was always cold...

For me, being such a foodie and all, I cannot turn down a can of Chef Boyardee Beefaroni and a cheap bottle of no-name wine. My frugality often wins over my love for the finer things.

:-) Yes, I recognized the kindred spirit in your first couple of posts at the other board!
