I like food, both cooking it and eating it. Food is meant to be good, not just something to fill you up, and I'm not foreign to spending some time on food to make it a bit more exciting.
Now, what I do lack is the imgaination to come up with and try new things, and the advanced planning to do so before I get hungry and sit there with a fridge containing nothing but the most basic things :-) ... I seem to be very good at somehow getting by without refilling the food supplies very often, to the extent that I sometimes don't even remember what I've been having to eat some days. I know I do cook and eat since I'm evidently not starving to death, but just what food I've made sometimes seems to be out of range for my memory. Maybe that means my diet is lacking something important and memory improving, what do I know :-) ...
Anyway, I'm good at cooking and eating at home, I have yet to fall for the lure of the nearby McDonald's. The pasta restaurant in school has got a few visits though, but at least that's good food. Also, allowing yourself only that restaurant as an alternative to brining home made lunch is a good motivator, their menu gets very boring very fast :-) ...
As for drinks I drink everything from water to soft drinks to wine and beyond, but I'm not into the hobby of getting drunk. I have no desire for that and I have no problem stopping before it gets too much either. A little affected can be nice, but there's no fun or point in overdoing it. And that's not too common either, a glass of wine for dinner every now and then (when dining with my parents :-) and the ocassional beer is my average alcohol consumption.
What I drink most of the time, all the time really, is tea and water. Straight from the tap water and tea without milk or sugar or anything else is pretty much all I drink on the average day. I did drink quite a bit of milk when I lived with my parents, but since I've moved I've surely bought less than 10 liters, and that's including Muu chocolate milk. Orange juice has been increasing in frequency though, not on a level comparable to the decrease in milk, but still.
