Weekly Wrap-Up #8: Ice Cream

In this last week did you eat any ice cream? Yes.

What flavor? I had some coffee, caramel macchiato, and mocha almond fudge. Yeah, it was on sale at the market.

Where’s your favorite place to go for ice cream? Oh…Italy. LMAO. Really. I love gelato.

Do you own an ice cream maker? No.

Would you like to? I have mixed feelings. I would adore being able to make my own, but I don’t have much room for another appliance, and I’d probably get really fat.

Your turn:

Weekly Wrap-Up #4: Research

This week’s wrap-up topic is researching.

Did you do any sort of research in the last week? Yes, my brother and his wife are now writers for Examiner.com in Dallas. I’m interested in doing that for L.A., so I was researching what’s involved and what topic I might take up. Since there are already a couple of Food Examiners for Los Angeles, I may try to specialize and be the Coffee Examiner.

Was it for work or play? Work. Apparently you get paid per click on your articles.

Learn anything you’d care to share? Some of the Examiners out there are not publishing articles within their topic. For instance, there were a couple of One Pot Meal Examiners that wrote about dishes that weren’t complete meals, which is the whole point of One Pot Meals–that you don’t have a bunch of dishes to clean afterward. Also, while researching a local coffee roaster, I cried when I read an account of how his beloved brother passed away from cancer.
Do you have a hunger for knowledge or are you more passive? I love learning stuff. I can easily get carried away for hours researching.
Do you like the learning (aka school?) I loved school. That’s probably why I eventually became a teacher. If I had the time and money, I’d so go back to college and get a second degree. I would love to learn how to speak Italian.

Your turn!
