I would like to be reincarnated as a slug in your garden. 
Or maybe just a little bug. Or a chicken.

@Wildfire: I don't mind the cold too much, but man, that summer heat kills.

The year is already really flying by, isn't it?
I don't have any particular plans, or anything exciting planned. I was waffling on the idea of going for a walk, but I imagine that with the recent snowfall it'd be difficult to find a sidewalk that has been cleared off. Maybe just a small trip to the grocery store to pick up a couple of new treats.

Koah:
I eat potet klubb bland with a side of broccoli. However, if you were to make the balls small, you could toss them into a vegetable, pork, or beef soup.
We always make a lot of potetklubb (potato dumplings), we have a tradition of slicing them thin in the morning and frying them up for breakfast. Either way, this food is extremely filling and if you aren't a potato demon, it's not yummy. lol.
I live in a small town in Oregon state, our restaurants are almost entirely Mexican cuisine. I would love it if something more exciting moved into our area.

I'm looking forward to trying out those potato dumplings. The weather here seems perfect, too, to give something like that a try. I had curry over the weekend, which is always very comforting and filling. We just use some of those Golden Curry bricks and toss in some little vegetables.
Ah, I remember that about Oregon. There were so many Mexican/Hispanic stores and restaurants. I was ashamed not to be very familiar with the cuisine in regard to cooking, but the food was always good.

@Koah: haha, It's my pleasure so I'm pleased you enjoy it.
Ohh, a Potet Klubb? I had to look it up, but I wonder if you wouldn't be a big pierogi (Polish) fan. These little potet things looks very interesting; are they served any particular style? In a soup? Just willy-nilly? I am a little potato demon...
I don't think I ever developed a taste for salmon but it was a staple. I got better at eating fish as I grew up, but it was always a struggle for me. As an adult, my mother thinks it's funny that I fake it just to be polite--she's the only one who could tell. I'd love to eat more fish and cook it more often; it's a great protein, but I tend to be more vegetable-heavy and my partner prefers chicken.
In this area, there are a lot of Jamaican and Central American restaurants. It's a cuisine I'm almost entirely unfamiliar with (save for a few items) but it's very interesting to see the different methods and dishes everyone has.

I've been curious about it! But I don't have the guts to spend that money right now.

I won't get between this friendly competition, but let us know who wins! This is really funny!
The last competition I had was who could make the best dutch baby; bought a cast iron pan just for the occasion.

@Wildfire: I don't mind preservatives or pre-made foods. They can be an easy go-to and helpful for when you're just not up to cooking or need a little bit of a head start. It's only that--like you mentioned--it gets expensive if you rely on it too much sometimes. I bet a cooking class would be really enjoyable in school when you're young, especially if it's just to cook some basics or have other kids bring in recipes to try. I didn't really learn to cook until I was...I believe around 20. It was definitely intimidating at first, and you don't know what the directions really mean; thank goodness youtube exists now.
@Koah: Isn't it wild how many foods have food coloring? Sometimes you just have to wonder why. The same with sugar!
Ohh, I'm envious! I've never tried Norwegian foods. I was pretty lucky to grow up where I did; lots of seafood (father was a fisherman) and lots of game meats because it was a lot of wilderness. There are a lot of companies and delis that will sell specialty meats. Kielbasa is pretty common, even in grocery stores (I thought) and reindeer sausage was a staple where I grew up.

@Wildfire: Ooh, the sauteed greens from your garden sound really good. One of my favorite dishes is collared greens.
I wonder if perhaps cooking in general isn't just a bit intimidating, and moreso coming up with meal plans that are supposed to be healthier.

He must be a picky eater, haha. Lentils are pretty delicious, and one of my favorite things to eat because they can be so satisfying in the cold weather. Back home, there was a restaurant that made a lentil soup with reindeer sausage so it was very tasty.
Cooking your own food can be substantially cheaper, and if you're knowledgeable about where to shop and what's in season, eating "healthy" isn't hard at all. It's especially easy in a farm country because produce tends to be cheaper, but it's usually pretty accessible anywhere these days.
The last room mate I had was on this steak-only diet.
It still makes my eyes water from giggling about how he always complained about his stomach.

I miss the food I ate when I was in school. It was really just pizza, nachos, beer, wine, and caprese salads. And enough coffee to serve a cruise liner.
My father is like that; he becomes personally offended any time someone mentions that they're vegan. For whatever reason, he just can't get over the idea of honey. Or veganism, really.

I saw this today and thought of the thread:
I didn't really understand the linked twitter, though. Perhaps it's because I'm coming from a legal knowledge base so it just sounds like rambling without any comparative basis. "Let that sink in," isn't persuasive to me. From what I've read so far, it stands on the foundation that no system can prove ownership and that's why NFTs are inherently incorrect. I think that's where I'm the most confused, because we have plenty of "systems" that do just that.
Either I'm not understanding what the definition of "ownership" is in the NFT context, or I'm missing something else.
