VV Friday Poll “The Dessert Edition”

Cupcake VV Poll VV Friday Poll The Dessert Edition

What’s up people of the world? It’s FRIDAY!!

So I asked you last week if you wanted to see my usual Friday poll or a themed one every week. Most people liked the themed idea, but for now I think I will change them out, so sometimes it will be themed if I have an idea and sometimes just random. That way everyone is happy (and when I am brain-dead easier on me).

This week we have a dessert theme, because really, who doesn’t like dessert? And yes, I did make that cupcake above (Madagascar vanilla with vanilla butter-cream frosting) and took the photo. icon smile VV Friday Poll The Dessert Edition

  1. How has your week been?

  3. What is the best dessert-type thing you have eaten this week?

  8. Cake is #1, but I like a huge variety of sugary sweets.

  9. Your favorite cake is:
  10. I love “classic” wedding cake and by that I mean white cake with vanilla butter cream filling and frosting. Red velvet is a VERY close second!

  13. If you could only eat one sugary substance for all eternity what would it be?
  14. A moist, soft vanilla cupcake with vanilla frosting because it’s the perfect size and tastes soooooo good.

  15. Are you a fan of marzipan? (reader Melli made me think of this one)
  16. I don’t like it on it’s own, but love it paired with dark chocolate like in a Ritter bar.

  17. Do you consider fruit cake a dessert or a paper weight?
  18. Paper weight! I don’t know a single person who has ever actually eaten, made or received it. Maybe it’s an urban legend icon wink VV Friday Poll The Dessert Edition

  19. What’s on the weekend agenda?
  20. No plans yet but am desperate to get OUT and do something on Saturday rather than sit in my dark office editing photos.

    What is the best dessert-type thing you have eaten this week? Chocolate covered marzipan. :) :)

    I am a _______ person: Chocolate. It trumps all other sweets for me.

    Your favorite cake is: Not a big cake person. However, I do like a good flourless chocolate cake.

    Are you a fan of marzipan? (reader Melli made me think of this one) I am an enabler…LOL! I love marzipan, when it is fresh, and covered in dark chocolate.

    Do you consider fruit cake a dessert or a paper weight? When it is well made, fruit cake is a wonderful dessert. Again, store bought fruit cake is only good as a door stop.

    What’s on the weekend agenda? A bridal shower on Sunday.

  • Nicole

    How has your week been? A bit like yours, it had it’s ups and downs

    What is the best dessert-type thing you have eaten this week?
    Didn’t have the money for anything dessert like, this week. So I’ll
    have to go for my chocolate & hazelnut coffee.

    What’s on the nails today? Nicole by OPI Positive Energy layered under
    Sinful Colours Nail Junkie. It’s like a unicorn vomited on my nails, I love it!

    I am a _______ person: an all of the above : P

    Your favorite cake is: Chocolate anything, but I also really like banana.

    Your least favorite dessert would be: Probably fruit pies, I love fruit, but really
    hate it when it’s cooked. (though the banana cake thing seems to condradict it, I would still hate bananas, say, fried in a pan or something)

    If you could only eat one sugary substance for all eternity what would it be?
    Probably Peanut m&ms.

    Are you a fan of marzipan? (reader Melli made me think of this one) Not that I can recall.

    Do you consider fruit cake a dessert or a paper weight? it’s funny that you should ask this, especially after describing what you call the “classic” wedding cake. A classic wedding cake or “traditional” wedding cake here Australia is fruit cake with this super thick, hard, white icing. I can’t stand it, and am glad we’ve moved on to more modern cake trends. My grandmother used to be a cake decorator and made a whole bunch of fruit cakes in this way. My mum loves the cake, but hates the icing so we would split it when I was a kid.

    10. What’s on the weekend agenda? Nothing all that fun, running errands and going to the Y to workout.

    Do you consider fruit cake a dessert or a paper weight? paperweight
    What’s on the weekend agenda? working on bday party invites for my son

    April 15, 2011
  • How has your week been?
    Tiring. I worked a bunch of random shifts, which made me a bit out of sorts. Working 8am-4pm the day after you work 2pm-10pm is disorienting. And tonight’s schedule? 6pm-2am. Saturday? 8pm-4am Sunday. I feel like I’m going to meet myself coming in.

    What is the best dessert-type thing you have eaten this week?
    Honestly? I haven’t had much at all. I bought a package of those new Jello temptations things. They were sort of meh. I think I’d rather just have pudding. Wasn’t feeling all that tempted. That was it.

    What’s on the nails today?
    China Glaze Knotty with some subtle flower stickers that are like Konad with 100% less swearing and fail.

    I am a _______ person:
    Cinnamon/apple/cobbler/pie. I’d rather have an apple crumble than a cakey cake, and I’m not all that much a fan of frosting of any stripe. Mostly because I’m less of a sugar whore than I used to be.

    Your favorite cake is:
    Jewish apple cake with double cinnamon, loaded with apples, and served with an ice cold glass of milk.

    Your least favorite dessert would be:
    The ‘salad’ abominations that combine Jello with non dessert items. I never want to see Jello and lettuce within a foot of each other. Or pretzels. Or mayonnaise. Nothing besides mandarin oranges should ever be suspended in gelatin, not even in the interest of science.

    If you could only eat one sugary substance for all eternity what would it be?
    I’d forego all desserts on the planet to just have sugar to put in my coffee. But if I had to pick a dessert, one dessert, it’d be a properly made chocolate milkshake served with the remainder on the side in the frosty steel cup.

    Are you a fan of marzipan? (reader Melli made me think of this one)
    I’ve never actually seen marzipan in the wild; I’ve only watched cake competition people sculpt things out of it. And I’m really not a fan of eating anything that someone other than myself has touched and touched and touched and touched with their bare hands. Which means I’m pretty much skeeved by every cake on every competition or reality show ever.

    Do you consider fruit cake a dessert or a paper weight?
    I’m a fruit cake agnostic. People talk about it, but I’ve never seen compelling evidence that it exists.

    What’s on the weekend agenda?
    Two more work shifts, then a Sunday that may be spent primarily in a facedown position, at least until noon or so. Then we’ll see.

    9. Do you consider fruit cake a dessert or a paper weight? Paper weight. Why ruin a good pound cake by putting candied fruit in it?!

    Paper weight! My good friend married a Scotsman and his mother threw a hissy fit when my friend had regular cake instead of the traditional fruitcake at their wedding. I guess it’s tradition to mail pieces of the cake to the guests that can’t make it to the wedding. Sorry, but any cake that can have pieces mailed like that is not cake!

    10.What’s on the weekend agenda?
    Hopefully finishing the draft of my thesis so I can graduate soon!

  • How has your week been? I have mixed feeling about this one. Semi good, I guess.

    What is the best dessert-type thing you have eaten this week? A sort of waffel cookies with nougat creme, very good, very addictive, I ate half of the box alone.

    What’s on the nails today? Eveline Holografic Shine number 405

    I am a (cake, cookie, ice cream, candy, etc.) _______ person: I adore sweets, they’re my drug. So I can eat basically any kind of sweets, but my favourite are cakes, cookies and ice cream. I’m not big on candy like Snickers and such, nor hard candy and bon-bons.

    Your favorite cake is: Hmm, tough one. I love them all, but I’d say Sacher cake or perhaps cinnamon.

    Your least favorite dessert would be: I hate anything with sour cherry, but especially strudel.

    If you could only eat one sugary substance for all eternity what would it be? Cake. To quote Dylan Moran: Cake is the language of love! ;)

    Are you a fan of marzipan? (reader Melli made me think of this one) Yes, huge!

    Do you consider fruit cake a dessert or a paper weight? I’m not sure if we’re talking about the same fruit cake. If I remember correctly Americans actually have some sort of sweet bread with fruit in it and you call that fruit cake? Because here we have tooons of fruit cakes, but it’s a real cake, like chocolate cake, but filled with a kind of fruit, and usully chocolate filling or vanilla or something to go with the fruit and biscuit and they’re really awesomely good if prepared correctly. :) My favourite is banana with chocolate nougat creme and chocolate biscuit with coconut on top. Calorie bomb too. ;)

    What’s on the weekend agenda? Studying and a celebrating anniversary with my BF. :)

    8. Are you a fan of marzipan? (reader Melli made me think of this one) In small amounts, yes.

    2. What is the best dessert-type thing you have eaten this week?

    The homemade Frango mint cheesecake at last Saturday’s party. Nom.

    3. What’s on the nails today?

    Nothing – there’s a major relandscaping project this weekend, so doing my nails would be a waste of time until it’s done. I have Butter London HRH ready to go once it’s done, though!

    Chocolate. Chocolate. Chocolate.

    5. Your favorite cake is:

    Chocolate.

    6. Your least favorite dessert would be:

    Redoing the drainage and landscaping around the one underground downspout that is hopelessly plugged. It shouldn’t be too awful (famous last words!), and we’re getting rid of yet another of the aggressive shrub roses the previous owner liked. It’ll look a lot better and the drainage should work when we’re done. I have tickets for Monday’s baseball game so it’s all good (Go Rockies!) :)

  • okally dokally so here’s my first poll response on here:

    1. How has your week been? it’s been alright – trying to get through Dragon Age on ps3. Got my first Illamasqua order the other day – got Surge liquid metal, Succubus, and Fierce intense lipgloss – all of which are awesome.

    2. What is the best dessert-type thing you have eaten this week?
    reeces’s peanut butter eggs and chocolate marshmallow eggs that are flavored

    3. What’s on the nails today? nothing

    4. I am a (cake, cookie, ice cream, candy, etc.) _______ person: all of it – but mostly candy – that’s why I have to go to the dentist all the time – I have fillings all over the place and finally got braces after all these years – the orthodontist is trying to tell me I need to lose the candy habit, but I don’t think that’s possible – cut down yes, quit no – and this is coming from someone who won’t hesitate to spend almost 30 bux in one shot at the candy store =D

    5. Your favorite cake is: white cake with sweet buttercream frosting not that whipped crap that looks good and then you bite into it and you’re instantly disappointed – I’m talking about the stuff that after 2 big whole spoonfuls of it, you start to not feel so well and you make others cringe watching you shovel it in, asking how you can tolerate that much sweet at once – that’s how you know it’s good. I also love red velvet cake and tiramisu

    6. Your least favorite dessert would be: that weird jello that people bring to family get togethers that has unidentifiable objects in it with miniature marshmallows on top – i thought I actually saw shredded carrots in green jello a couple of times -looking like some wiggling, congealed mess you’d find someone from another planet consuming – haneous. I also don’t like flan – it’s the creme brulee imposter – but don’t be fooled! And carrot cake – it is vile and horrible – made me sick once and the thought of the flavor makes me shiver.

    7. If you could only eat one sugary substance for all eternity what would it be?
    now see that’s a hard one coming from a sweet-o-holic – hmmm, man yeah that’s tough – but top of my head i’d have to say reece’s peanut butter cups

    8. Are you a fan of marzipan? (reader Melli made me think of this one) Yes I love it – my mother used to get it for me at xmas time every year – so now every time I see it I try to grab as many as possible. My husband is getting a taste for it to because he gets into it – he used to tell me it tasted like peanut butter flavored play dough :p

    9. Do you consider fruit cake a dessert or a paper weight? paper weight – I don’t understand why it’s even sold anywhere – maybe because it’s supposed to be a funny joke at holidays? I dunno but smells and looks grotesque.

    10. What’s on the weekend agenda? I need to get my lazy arse up and practice my dance video, but the gray, windy weather is making me not feel like it. I have dance class tomorrow morning. Other than that, all I can think of is sunday cleaning and grocery shopping *grunt*

    1.How has your week been?
    Extremely busy at work. I cannot wait to sleep more than 3 hours tonight.

    2.What is the best dessert-type thing you have eaten this week?
    Um… oh wait, I had these amazing “caramel turtle” brownies last Sunday. They’re chocolatey, gooey, with nuts and caramel on top. I am normally more of a vanilla fan than a chocolate fan (except for once each month, if you know what I mean) but these brownies are heavenly.

    3.What’s on the nails today?
    OPI Suzi Says Da! Yes, I realize it is spring. Yes, I realize everyone’s putting on super bright corals, etc. HOWEVER, I’ve always been a dark nail polish fan, I can’t help it. Plus this color is one of those neat “is it brown? is it red?” type colors that just looks really slick, and it’s my go-to color for when I need to feel confident and tough… had to do a scientific presentation for about 200 people this morning, so it was a definite Suzi Says Da! day.

    4.I am a (cake, cookie, ice cream, candy, etc.) _______ person:
    Oooh, I love cake. :)

    5.Your favorite cake is:
    Plain old vanilla with vanilla frosting. Just like you! Although my mom makes this really cool pistachio cake sometimes around Christmas. Because it has pistachio instant pudding in it, the cake is green – and she throws in some chopped cherries to add some red – it makes a great Christmas thing.

    6.Your least favorite dessert would be:
    Ugh, stuff like bread pudding or rice pudding… gross. Tapioca stuff is awful as well. Gross. *shudder*

    7.If you could only eat one sugary substance for all eternity what would it be?
    Either vanilla cake/vanilla frosting, or those turtle brownies mentioned above.

    8.Are you a fan of marzipan? (reader Melli made me think of this one)
    Not really…

    9.Do you consider fruit cake a dessert or a paper weight?
    Paper weight.

    2. What is the best dessert-type thing you have eaten this week? A Double Doozie Chocolate Chip Cookie from the Great American Cookie Co today. It’s just so wrong it’s great. Two cookies with sweet creme stuff sandwiched between.
    3. What’s on the nails today? An anti-yellow coat on the fingers and Russian Navy on the toes. I’m gonna be putting Zoya Lolly on. Your post convinced me I needed it. :)
    4. I am a (cake, cookie, ice cream, candy, etc.) _______ person: Cookies all the way baby. Unless there’s a good pie.
    5. Your favorite cake is: Buttermilk Devils Food Cake. Yum.
    6. Your least favorite dessert would be: I’m with you on this one, VV. Fruit. It’s not a dessert. Please stop trying to pass it off as such, people.
    7. If you could only eat one sugary substance for all eternity what would it be? Chocolate. Chocolate. Chocolate. Chocolate.
    8. Are you a fan of marzipan? (reader Melli made me think of this one) Yuck, yuck, yuck, yuck, yuck, yuck, yuck. My English granny sometimes tries to convince me to eat that crap. Nope.
    9. Do you consider fruit cake a dessert or a paper weight? Paper weight. Someone always gives me that a Christmas. And I view it as a paper weight. Sadly, it’s not a myth. We’ll probably have some at my (English) grandparents anniversary. That crap is some sort of tradition. Or so they’ve told me.
    10. What’s on the weekend agenda? Lord of the Rings and Burn Notice Fest, followed by True Blood and Game of Thrones. :) I’m all about lazing in front of the tv this weekend.

    1. How has your week been?
    Ok, just packing and organizing away.
    2. What is the best dessert-type thing you have eaten this week?
    Hmmm… does peanut butter count? I may have had a chocolate chip cookie, can’t recall.
    3. What’s on the nails today?
    Naked nails again for me… pretty nails and packing boxes don’t go well together.
    4. I am a (cake, cookie, ice cream, candy, etc.) _______ person:
    Mmmm…. donuts (yes, I’m doing my very best Homer Simpson impression here). If there is a donut around, I’m eating it, which is precisely why they are generally banned from my house. But truthfully, I do love most sweets, yummm!
    5. Your favorite cake is:
    Yellow cake (has to be moist and rich vanilla flavored) with chocolate frosting (the thick butter cream kind)
    6. Your least favorite dessert would be:
    Flan or custard or rice pudding or bread pudding… anything in that kind of weird, mushy consistency.
    7. If you could only eat one sugary substance for all eternity what would it be?
    Dark chocolate, not so dark that it isn’t sweet, and the kind that melts in your mouth… heaven!
    8. Are you a fan of marzipan? (reader Melli made me think of this one)
    Not particularly, but I don’t hate it or anything
    9. Do you consider fruit cake a dessert or a paper weight?
    Paperweight, of course. My evil ex-stepfather actually did enjoy fruitcake, should have been a clue right there.
    10. What’s on the weekend agenda?
    More packing and organizing and cleaning, my cousin is coming to help me pack next week, yay!
    Have a good weekend!

    9. Do you consider fruit cake a dessert or a paper weight? Paperweight, definitely. My mom had one in the back of her fridge for over a year…lol. My mother-in-law gave us one, I shoved it to the back of the fridge and there it remained until I tossed it one day…. one second thought, not a paperweight, nor like a brick!!
