I’ve been super bad about getting my Four Foods on Friday questions answered on time, and even worse at buzzing around and reading everyone’s answers, but this week is going to be different thanks to the long weekend. I promise I’ll stop by and comment on everyone’s answers (except those that make me login to comment – please let everyone comment).

1. Potato Chips. What kind of chips are your favorite?

I like original Jay’s and tortilla chips on taco night (and once in a blue moon I’ll get a taste for Doritos), but Mike’s constantly begging me to buy snacks because I never keep chips in the house.

2. What’s your favorite thing to dip chips in?

Guacamole…without the onion or tomato, which basically means I just like mushed up avocado.

3. What’s your favorite way to eat a baked potato?

Sour cream and chives…but baked potatoes are another food we rarely eat.

4. How do you make mashed potatoes?

My sister just asked me how to make mashed potatoes the other day. I peel, quarter, and boil potatoes until they are soft. Then I drain, add a dollop of butter, salt, pepper, and parsley, then mash the daylights out of them. If I’m feeling extra unhealthy, I’ll add a chunk of cream cheese before mashing.

Even though I was born and raised in the Chicagoland-area, I still need a little help locating a phone number or address from time-to-time. The Chicago Yellow Pages were a life safer Tuesday morning when Mike’s car was vandalized and we needed an Auto Repair in Chicago quick!

If you’re looking for a number in the Chicago area, or anywhere else, Dex knows your city. Just let them know what you’re looking for and where, and they’ll supply you with an entire list of auto repair shops, night clubs, doctors, restaurants, attorneys, and more. In seconds, Dex gave us a listing of 1,270 auto repair shops and Mike’s car will be fixed in no time!

My new favorite snack is the Baked Wheat Stix from Pringles. They come 10 packs to a box for under $3, and each pack contains 12 stix for only 90 calories! They are hard to find, so when I saw them in the store last week, I snatched six boxes, just in case they aren’t around long.Pringles Baked Wheat Stix are the perfect crunchy and salty snack, so I knew that I had to submit photos of me loving on my Wheat Stix when Ted Murphy asked for help with his AMA presentation .

Of course, BenSpark had to show me up with pictures of his little girl munching on Pringles, but it’s hard to be mad at a blondie in a high chair.

Since Mike is a paramedic, I ask him medical questions all the time, and when I heard about C’elle, I had to ask About the Science behind stem cell technology.

The debate over stem cell research is heated, and I am firmly on the side of harvesting stem sells for further research and the potential discovery of cures for diabetes, heart disease, MS, Alzheimer’s, and other diseases.

C’elle is technology that allows woman to collect stem cells for future use from menstrual blood. Menstrual stem cells are a 100% match for the woman, and may potentially help her first degree relatives, as the cells have the ability to differentiate into other cells types such as heart muscle, cartilage, nerve and bone stem cells which could serve as the cure for many life altering diseases.

For only a few hundred dollars, women have the ability to collect and save menstrual blood and take the future of their health into their own hands. The C’elle Client Testimonial proves that we have nothing to lose, and everything to gain, from this new stem cell technology.

I’ve been informed that I’m way late to the sneezing panda party, but it’s just so cute that everyone should watch it again.

I’ve become mildly obsessed with pandas as of late, and was quite disappointed when there wasn’t any at the zoo last week. I could be wrong, but I think the San Diego Zoo is one of the few zoos in the US that have panda bears. Does your local zoo have panda bears?
