Seven Culinary Wonders of the World as I currently know it...



1: Bacon, no matter what you may think, this is truly a delight (sorry Muslims and koshers) There is nothing like the smell of bacon. BACOOOOOOOON. There is nothing like the crisp of a perfectly cooked peice of bacon. Bacon is a great garnish, a great breakfast meat, a great sandwhich meat. Bacon. Don't deny your love.
2: Sushi, every piece is like a piece of artwork specifically geared toward the magic of your taste buds, this amazing deliciousness should be accepted in all forms: traditional, modern, got bored and tried this, everything. It's very presentation lends itself to please the eater. Yummy.
3: Coffee also known to be called, Nectar of the Gods by people like me. Nothing like a hot cup of coffee to sit and watch the sun come up, or relax on the patio, or read the paper/facebook/movie. Nothing is better than coffee first thing in the morning when you are camping and haven't slept all night because your genius boyfriend picked the one spot in the site with a sharp rock that jabs you in the back and he can't sleep there because he only sleeps on the right.
4: Tomatoes, you can do so much with this sweet little fruit and it doubles as a veg! Nothing is better than pulling these little babies off the vine and taking a big bite and letting the juice drip down your chin! These versatile babies could be used in almost any recipe, except the nectar of the gods, sorry.


5: Avocados, another wonderfully versatile fruit/veg. Also great for your skin and your health! This is one of my favs for every meal. In fact last week i took one into the restaurant to eat with my meal! If i didn't live in the middle of the US where the poor trees can't survive I'd have about 4 of these trees.



6: Pasta, there are so many kinds and I haven't even tried them all but I have never found one I didn't like, as is evidence by my midsection. Add a sauce and it is pure heaven.



7: Chocolate, what kind of woman would I be if I didn't mention this sweet little baby? There are very few things in this world that are known to immediately lift one's spirit merely by the chemical process of digestion. (aside from you know drugs and stuff) Chocolate has proven scientific benefits. I figure any food that bears necessity to study multiple times in depth is pretty darn good. Also every time I watch the old version of Willie Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, (you know the one with Gene Wilder!) I immediately crave fudge like my grandfather made and this movie was one the other night so it made the list.
