Homer Hudson.

In my time, I've eaten quite a few ice cream brands. And today, I think I just discovered the greatest tasting one yet: Homer Hudson's 'Hoboken Crunch.' It's an amazingly smooth and creamy vanilla ice cream with yummy chunks of two of my favourite things: chocolate and caramel. It's seriously delicious, and I'm not even an ice cream person. I think everyone should try it.

My other big thing right now is... Well anything with spinach in it: spinach pasta, spinach lasagna, and since spinach is so often with ricotta, a lot of spinach and ricotta stuff too. One of my favourites is a chicken and spinach cannelloni my mum cooks; it's got everything I love in it, and tomato, but it's still delicious. 

Yeah, I love food. Mostly meal foods, dinner foods and the like. I don't really find lunch a greatly appreciable meal, but I love soups, so that tends to be something I eat a lot for lunch. Breakfast is toast, or eggs. I don't love or hate pancakes, or waffles or whatever else, I'm just not good with eating in the mornings.

But dinners, they are where the variety really starts to come out in food and cooking abilities. You can do anything for dinner, something as simple as the standard meat and vegetables, all the way to an inventive and creative dish mixing multiple cuisines. It's also the meal you see how different cultures eat far better, although a lot of dinner meals can be transferred to lunch, nobody really has that much time.

Switching topics, because I could rant about food all day, and still nobody would care. January 1st is my 19th birthday, and in Australia, that means it's my second birthday that I can legally drink for. For the past month or so, people have been asking me what I'm going to do for it, and telling me that it has to top my 18th, which was amazing. Tonight, I might have just had a break through idea. I've been contemplating a backyard costume party for some time, but I haven't had any sort of theme ideas, until tonight.

So, for the first time, I would like to have a 'Crayola Party.' After discovering this amazing crayola costume on costumeexpress.com the idea just popped into my head. Get a bunch of people, and make them wear a colour of crayola costume that starts with the first letter of their name, for example, my name is Sam, so I would pick a crayola colour that starts with 'S.' I could go for something obvious like scarlet, or something very Crayola like Sunset Orange.

The other idea I had was also thanks to costumeexpress.com and is a 'Favourite foods Party.' I found both a costume for Skittles and one for Starburst. So since there are a bunch of them, I was thinking everyone could just find their favourite food and wear a costume of it. There are also a bunch of different coloured M&M's, so I could make it food specific.

The amount of costumes available makes it easy for me to just say 'oh I'm just having a costume party, dress however you want' but I think it'd be more fun if there was a theme, even if it's just an 'S' party or something.
