Hiya, Fluffsters!

So, I’ve been randomly thinking about “if I were in a position to ask anybody something, what would that question be?”

I’ve come up with an answer, that would only change slightly depending on who it is.

If the person has kids, I think I’d ask them “If you could magically make it so that anytime you kid(s) cooked a particular food that food turned out perfectly, what would that food be?”

(If they did not have kids, then I’d ask them what they would make perfectly everytime they cooked it.)

I personally think this question has some hidden depth to it, no matter which form it’s asked in. You see, I’m not including the ingredients in the “magic” of the answer. So, if you can’t necessarily afford all the ingredients & tools for fancier (and presumably more difficult to make correctly) food, you wouldn’t necessarily be able to use your special dish ability that often. On the other hand, it’s really easy to make a good, say, macaroni & cheese. So the question gets to that tradeoff.

And then when you add kids into the dynamic, that of course makes things even more interesting. Because now it’s not just you that you’re impacting, but your kids. would you like them to always be able to make the perfect romantic dish, like perfect creme brulee? Or would you want them to always be able to make the perfect (inexpensive) chicken soup? What about the fact that you won’t directly benefit from your kid’s ability, unless you visit them?

So, yeah. I’m hoping to be able to ask that question at some point.

For me, I think I’d go with Chicken Parmesan. I’ve yet to make any sort of breaded chicken dish turn out with pretty breading. So, having a chicken parm turn out perfectly every time would be fantastic!
