Best meal I ever ate:

Chez l'ami Jean, in Paris back in 2005

Home-made sodas and mocktails.

My "Go-to" dinner party dish:

In the winter, carrot soup, then roast chicken with my homemade salt rub and some sides, a cheese course, and homemade clafouti. In summer, gaspacho soup, something off the bbq, followed by mango jelly.

My most tattered cookbooks:

"A New Way to Cook" by Sally Schneider; "The Silver Palate" and "New Basics" by Julee Rosso & Sheila Lukins; Fanny Farmer Cookbook; Madhur Jaffrey's "World Vegetarian" -- and more! Lately, it's been Bittman's How to Cook Everything Vegetarian.
