Chips 'N Dip

Trying new foods is always something that someone should do. Whether it is something extemely out of the ordinary such as Balut, from the Phillipines, or something that you see every day when you walk around, but just haven't had a chance to try. Which road you take simply depends on how daring you are. Truthfully, I'm not that daring, but this year I have decided to open my palates up a little more. If you talked to me last year I would not have even tried something sour or spicy; I liked it plain. However plain gets boring fast, and I'm learning how to try new things. That is not to say that I am willing to try Balut yet, even if it is my family's specialty as a Filipino girl.
Today I had a rather mild day, until tonight. I woke up and had a lovely bowl of Cheerios. Delicious. Safe. Yum.
Enjoyed my day at school, and around came lunch. Today there was Mac'n'Cheese, Mini Hot Dogs, and Cinnamon Apples, and it was pretty good. Some of the best lunch food the cafeteria ladies make.
I am a part of a Robotics Team at school and we tend to stay in school until 8 PM, so Parents alternate and bring dinner on different days. Today a kind parent of the school brought Salad, Chips, and Chili. Chili is something I've never had. I never really liked spicy food and I was a wimp to try it. However, I decided to go ahead and eat some. It wasn't that spicy, I guess to please the majority, but it was pretty delicious. There was baked beans (as is mandatory), ground beef, and veggies all stewed up together to make a rather delicious Chili. I ate the entire bowl. I have decided I found a "like" for things mildly spicy, I haven't found the tolerance for IN YOUR FACE spicy yet.
I'm getting more accepting to new flavors each and every day.
Also, as a side note, I have decided to only write blogs every so often, but I will be keeping a physical food diary at all times.Labels: Family, Food, Food Diary, New Food
