what a sin - day 6

Don't forget to let me know if you're playing along in our little Seven Deadly Sins game so I can link to your blog, too.

We're on to the second-to-last in our countdown: Gluttony. List seven guilty pleasures. Since traditionally gluttony refers to the overindulgence of food and drink, I'm going to stick with that theme. Have you ever watched The Best Thing I Ever Ate on Food Network Canada? That show would definitely give you lots of great ideas for this post. Speaking of TV, you'll also find some exemplary gluttony on Man vs. Food.

1) My favourite meal: homemade baked beans, Maritime brown bread and ooey, gooey mac and cheese.

2) Mounds of salty hand-cut, deep fried French fries and Heinz ketchup. Only Heinz.

3) A big turkey dinner with all the fixins, minus the turkey. Smooth, whipped potatoes, sweet potato pie, green bean casserole, squash casserole, stuffing and Lady Ashburnham pickles.

4) The grilled cheese sandwich at The Knot in Lunenburg.

5) A Mexican fiesta fit for a queen. Veggie tacos, rice and bean burritos, loaded nachos and lots of guacamole.

6) While we're talking national cuisine, let's go to Italy. Fettuccine alfredo, veggie lasagna, garlic baguette and hand-tossed pizza loaded with fresh toppings.

7) I'll top it all off with my favourite desserts: pecan pie, strawberry rhubarb pie, warm chocolate chip cookies, turtle cheesecake and strawberry shortcake.

Pardon me while I go get a snack.
