I think it’s possible to be married and eat Ramen. Peter has Ramen for lunch almost every day.

As for Reeses – I’m definitely an eat-around-the-edges girl. After that, it depends on my mood.

when you named that Butterfly Technique movie I thought you were going to talk about some sort of instructional film for budding porn stars, or something…

Yikes!

i am single and GASP have never eaten ramen. i know, a sin. for real. sometimes i walk through the grocery store and reach for it and then decide against it. this time i’m going for it.

Good luck! You’ll have to try a couple of times to get it the way you like it…

making ramen for me is an art. i make the noodles in the microwave then pour out like ALL of the water so it’s just like a bowl of noodles. i then put in half the seasoning packet and stir.

and yes, i’m single.

I respect that way of making it, but I do not understand it.

I haven’t indulge in Ramen noodles since 1998, but I think I liked ‘em long(?), fully drained and with only half the seasoning packet. I’m not married… but I do prefer to chomp the shit out of Reese’s PB cups because I just want them in my belly. I’m a big fan.

Would you eat Ramen if you could though? And is there a wheat-free version in the works?

I suddenly have the strongest urge to top my ramen with Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups. I’ll let you know how it goes.

I’ll hold you to that.

Now I’m craving Reese’s.

I actually opt for a bag of microwave popcorn as my single woman’s meal.

I’m so into the small bags of popcorn they make now. It’s totally perfect.

I adore Ramen, but I always (yes, even married people eat ramen!) drain mine so it’s noodles on a plate instead of a soup. And then I mix in the seasoning.

When I was in college, I made my ramen in a small coffee pot. It was awesome: I’d stick the noodles in the pot part, and as the water dripped down, it cooked the noodles. Please note: i never made coffee with this coffee pot. It was for ramen noodle cooking only.

I wonder how the coffee would taste. Rameny.

Here’s one way I eat my Ramen: Break off cracker-sized chunks and use them to scoop up baked beans. It’s like an edible spoon and surprisingly good. Granted it was a discovery based upon having only two available ingredients for dinner, but that’s how great things come to pass.

Also, I don’t get the butterfly stroke, or any other stroke besides the front crawl. Isn’t it kind of like race walking- deliberately choosing a slower way to hold a race, just for variety?

Baked beans being my other favorite desparation snack… And in freestyle, you can actually do any stroke you want, there are a very few people in the world who actually do fly faster than crawl. But yeah, that’s just for variety’s sake.

I have never had Ramen noodles. It just never came up. And while I cannot get through one day without chocolate in at least one of its manifestations, I’m not big on the Reese’s, either, unless it’s the miniature ones in the bag and I can just have one at a time. A regular Reese’s is just too much of a good thing, at least all at once……kinda too much of the sweet.

Too much of the sweet? There are some things about you I’ll just never get…
