Questions about food

(Image from: web.mit.edu)
Food for thought:
What is your opinion of the best food (meal) for teenagers
to keep you active for the school- and homework and
revising for the tests?

Our national food:
Can you name at least two national dishes (from Pomurje
or any other Slovenian region) that you like the most and
give the reason for your choice?

Your own recipe:
If you are ready to share it with us,
write it down (with the ingredients and instructions).

After a long break....

This winter is very cold,
at last snow has covered our country
and we are trying to avoid the freezing
temperatures by staying in.

Before thinking of answers to my questions about food,
the current topic of our English lessons,
enjoy reading these 'restaurant jokes':

“Waiter, your finger is in my soup!”
"It's all right sir. It isn’t hot.”

“Waiter! There’s a fly in my soup!”
“It’s OK., Madam. It’s dead”

"Waiter, do you serve fish?” “Sit down, sir. We serve anybody.”
“Waiter, have you got frog’s legs? ” “No, sir. I always walk like this.”

A family finished their meal in a restaurant and the father called the waiter and said:
"My son has left quite a lot of meat in his plate.
Could you put it in bag so that I can take it home for dog?”
“Oh dad!” shouted the excited boy. “Are we getting a dog then?”

A man in a restaurant said to a stranger sitting at the next table: “Do you realize that you are reading your newspaper upside down?” “Of course I realize it. Do you think it’s easy?”
