Cottage cheese… cottage cheese. Thanks for the suggestion Jackie! I really love cottage cheese. It tastes delicious and I love to sprinkle a little pepper on it. However, I think it’s really weird that a person would eat cottage cheese and pineapple. Doug likes to eat cottage cheese and pineapple.
When I was a kid, I would go to my grandma’s house and she would serve up cottage cheese. It is a food I always associate with her house. A lot of people probably think about cookies when they think about their grandmas, but I definitely think about cottage cheese. Cottage cheese and cheeze-its. My grandma used to have a jar filled with cheeze-its, maybe she still does. I haven’t visited with her in a while.
Once I visited her and she had cookies. They were the of the oatmeal variety that came in a purple package. I was really young and I remember distracting her so I could steal another cookie. But I was totally busted and I got in trouble. Well as in trouble as I remember getting when I was that age, which wasn’t really but a stern talking to. At Christmas time though, my grandma would make chocolate chip cookies, and they always had nuts in them, which I like. But in the summer, we always ate cottage cheese.
Too funny — I once thought we had a burglar in my house growing up because I heard a noise downstairs at 3:00 in the morning. After searching around my room for a weapon (a book) and tip-toeing into the hall, I suddenly heard the faint sound that I recognized: a cottage cheese container opening. My dad eats that sh*t every morning, day in and day out. I think he was called into work super early… so he was just having an “early breakfast” … so I always equate him to that food. And, oddly enough, my aunt reminds me of cheeze-its and coke (but only if eaten together).
I admire your courage to go down and investigate the burglar at 3 in the morning. I’m pretty sure I would sit in my bed super still until murdered.
