Questionnaire - Marie

[Guest guest]

The Questionnaire

 

1) What is your name or what would you like to be called?

Marie

 

2) How old are you (roughly)?

44

 

3) Where do you live (city/country)?

Maryland, suburb of Washington DC

 

4) How long have you been a vegetarian/vegan, or how long have you

been

interested in cooking vegetarian food?

Since college, close to 25 years

 

5) What is your favourite food or meal?

Pizza has been a current favorite, I've been having fun with

different

recipes and methods of making dough and experimenting with toppings.

Lately it's been a Greek pizza, with feta cheese, spinach, and

olives. I

also like Mexican, Spanish (tapas especially!), and (sad to say) ice

cream.

 

6) Why did you join the group?

I've been having back problems and need to lose some weight. The

invite

came at exactly the right time

 

7) Is there anything specific you want to get out of the group?

Some great, fast & easy, slimming recipes that will also appeal to my

teenage son (also vegetarian).

 

8) Tell us a few of your favourite things.

Reading, relaxing, computer.

 

9) Do you know of any internet sites or other groups which maybe

relevant

to members?

Veg-Recipes is a great group of Mastercook formatted

vegetarian recipes. It's all recipes, no chat (questions, requests,

etc

are on-topic) and it's a great group.

 

10) Is there anything else you'd like to share with the group?

I tend to come home from work and just want to slap something on the

table.

The pizza thing has been great, since I keep some dough in the

freezer,

take it out the night before, and it's ready so easily. Plus,

making my

own, I can keep it healthy and relatively low calorie and low fat.

I'd

love some similar solutions to fast and easy dinners that will fill

us up

through the evening.
