1. Do you like to cook or bake? Bake
2. Do you like carbs or sweets? Carbs
3. Do you like plan water or flavored water. Neither, its my downfall
4. Do you like tea or coffee. Yes, both
5. If you drink protein what is your favorite brand and flavor. Muscle milk
6. Rangers........OR ......Yankees......Rangers just cuz im from Texas
7.  For all you peeps that cook, my Mr. Wonderful had one thing to heat up in my Lab aka Kitchen last night and he nearly burned our home down by scorching my green beans on the stove....Does anyone know how to remove this nasty nasty burnt smell that fills our home??? any and all suggestions are welcomed...and YES Mr. Wonderful is banned from my lab......fill a bowl with an old newpaper and vinegar and leave it all day while your at work, the smell should be absorbed into the paper, you can do this on a smaller scale for the microwave.

1. Do you like to cook or bake?
Both. I cook almost every night for my husband. Bake cookies every weekend for the grown kiddos and my mother.
2. Do you like carbs or sweets?
Carbs are my enemy. Unfortunately.
3. Do you like plan water or flavored water?
I am an ice fiend. (Yes - I know it is a sign of anemia, which is why I eat it all the time. Waiting for newest labs to get back - got a feeling they are not going to be good.)
4. Do you like tea or coffee
Both. But generally avoid coffee as my tummy objects to it.
5. If you drink protein what is your favorite brand and flavor?
Don't drink very often. If do - use the Atkins Vanilla premade shakes.
6. Rangers........OR ......Yankees......
Baseball, right? (See how much I like sports....) Rangers I guess.
7.  For all you peeps that cook, my Mr. Wonderful had one thing to heat up in my Lab aka Kitchen last night and he nearly burned our home down by scorching my green beans on the stove....Does anyone know how to remove this nasty nasty burnt smell that fills our home??? any and all suggestions are welcomed...and YES Mr. Wonderful is banned from my lab......
I fill up an old pot that I keep just for such instances with water and a big slug of vanilla and some cinnamon. Put it on the stove on low for about 2 hours.

I suggested the same thing as you regarding the smell.  I add apple peels to make it smell like apple pie.  Works everytime.
I'm not perfect but I'm me and that is good enough!

1. Do you like to cook or bake? Can't remember the last time I baked anything other than cornbread. I like to experiment with cooking
2. Do you like carbs or sweets? Carbs
3. Do you like plan water or flavored water Can barely stand plain water, I like the SF Lemonberry Squeeze packets
4. Do you like tea or coffee Tea, hot tea in the morning and iced tea the rest of the day...need to get some water in there too
5. If you drink protein what is your favorite brand and flavor Can't tell you when I last bought protein, but I sure need to get back in the habit. I had some that was Cappachino flavored and I would mix a scoop in coffee whenever I remembered to.
6. Rangers........OR ......Yankees......
Not a baseball fan, but hate the Skankees!

As far as the smell, I have no clue, but I'm sure gonna try Tara's little trick!

Hugz,
Gina
