FFOF, Winner, and Reader Question

I got a question asked to me the other day about why I participate in social networks and memes.  I do it for 3 reasons.

1. To meet other people.  We all show each other support when we need it and it’s a great way to meet new friends.
2. Traffic.  If you don’t already know, I make money from ALL 3 of my blogs, this one no exception so having traffic is important.  
3. For you to get to know me.  This is mainly why I do memes like the FFOF.  It gives me a chance to talk about, well….me.  I think establishing a more personal relationship with my readers is important.  I care about why you want to read here and what you have to say.  Hopefully, the feeling is mutal and you want to know a little more about who I am.

Now the other day when I announced my new “facelift“, I also said you could win $10 bucks just for letting me know your thoughts on it.  I was pleased with the results.  It seems that most people like the new look.  There were a couple of people who preferred the old look and that’s understandable since it’s what I started with.  I changed the look for one reason and that’s branding.  I needed my own unique look.  There were other running around that had the same girl and I didn’t want to look like them.  Anyways, I appreciate the comments and now for the winner……..Congratulations to Bobbie!  Please contact me within a week with your paypal address.

And now for the FFOF (Four Foods on Friday) meme.

Here are this week’s four questions.

#1. What’s your favorite form of potatoes?

Of course, mashed.  Really people, who doesn’t like mashed??!!  I especially love them with sour cream, cheese, and bacos:)
#2. Pie crust. Premade or from scratch?

Both.  If I have several pies to make, I buy the premade as a time saver.  But if I’m making one for here or a friend, I totally make it from scratch!  Anything from scratch is the best because it’s made with love.
#3. Vegetables. Fresh, frozen or canned?

FROZEN, especially corn!!!  I love corn and once you’ve had frozen, there ain’t no going back to can.  I try to buy several veges frozen but a lot are bought by the can.  As far as fresh, it’s hard for me to do that when the grocery store is 2 hrs away.  Things that are fresh don’t last long around here. 
#4. What one dish do you wish you could prepare better?

Enchiladas.  Mine suck.  Please help me.  If you have a really good enchilada recipe, write about it on your blog and I’ll round up all the links and share them here in a post.

And that concludes the FFOF for this week!  I hope you all join in the  socializing and memes on your own blogs.  And if you don’t have a blog, then stop by the FFOF and see how other foodies answered the 4 questions!
