Writer's Block: That's good eats

[Error: unknown template qotd]
My favorite childhood meal was easily my grandma's spaghetti and meatballs. (No one else's. Don't even try.) She used to make huge pots of spaghetti sauce and noodles, and I would wake up early and walk over to her house to help. Then everyone would come over to eat, and it was like there was a party at Grandma's house. That's still the case, to a lesser extent, when Grandma makes spaghetti, except I haven't woken up early enough to help her make it in years. Bad, bad Rebecca. Somebody should learn that recipe before Grandma dies, but I doubt anyone will ever really be able to duplicate her spaghetti.

I also loved pickles as a child (and still do). I was about eight the first time I ate an entire jar in one sitting, but I guess that doesn't really count as a meal, does it?

I still love Grandma's spaghetti, but I'm not sure if it still ranks as my number one favorite meal. As a child, I hadn't yet discovered a lot of delicious meals like goat cheese pizza, buffalo chicken, pulled pork sandwiches, or green bean casserole. Mmm...
