the friday five

1. what did you have for breakfast this morning? if you didn't have breakfast, why not? i have yet to eat today. my 'breakfast' is usually lunch.

2. what's your favorite cereal? hmm....there are several that i like. right now, though, i'm particularly fond of this puffed wheat with flax seeds from trader joe's. it tastes like honey smacks:). normally, though, i'd have to say cinnamon life, cracklin oat bran, and michael's granola:)

3. how often do you eat out? do you want that to change? as in actually GOING to a restaurant, maybe twice a month, max. i love going out to dinner/lunch/whatever, but money doesn't really permit that these days.

4. what do you plan on having for dinner tonight? got a recipe for that? i haven't totally decided what to put out. perhaps some chicken. yeah, i know - that's pretty vague. but please.....i don't give my recipes away on such public forums:)

5. what's your favorite restaurant? why? the red sage (the grill, not the border cafe), washington dc. innovative, flavor-packed food, nice atmosphere, yummy drinks, one dessert in particular that makes my toes curl. for more casual dining, i'm a big fan of baja fresh, la madeleine, nacho mama's, and the loco hombre (although i had a recent bad experience there with the waitstaff that will, likely, prevent me from returning).
