    Have you ever made your own Wine/Beer?

    What’d you score on the Autistic Quotient test?

    Foods you wish you had right now

    I should have bought a box today. Do you get the thick and creamy Kraft kind in a box, Velveeta, or make your own. I have never managed to learn to make my own because all I end up with is gooey cheese stuck to everything but the pasta. So, I still get the box. Go ahead, shame me:).
