The Friday Five:

1. What drinking water do you prefer -- tap, bottle, purifier, etc.?

I prefer certain bottled waters but I'm cheap so I ususally just run the water out of the tap through a Brita filter. (The water where I live is heavily chlorinated and it's surface water - which means certain times of the year it can develop an off taste from algae). I prefer well water for drinking water but in this part of the country one doesn't have much choice.

2. What are your favourite flavor of chips?

Corn. (I don't like potato chips, except for the v. expensive Terra Chips, and even then, those are a bit greasy for me)

3. Of all the things you can cook, what dish do you like the most?

Bruschetta made with tomatoes from my own garden.

4. How do you have your eggs?

Generally, scrambled if I'm out (it's hard to ruin scrambled eggs {but it can be done}). If I'm cooking for myself, I often poach them. If I'm at a fancy brunch-place where they do omelets to order, I have to get an omelet - either ham and cheese or crabmeat and cheese.

5. Who was the last person who cooked you a meal? How did it turn out?

I went to the barbecue place this week, does that count? The food was ok. It's been a while since I had an individual person cook specifically for me.
