Favorite video game?

Asteroids.

Ginger?

Yes, very much. Especially the fresh root over the dried powder. I was happy that on a cooking subreddit I learned that ginger root freezes well. I bought a bag of it a while back and froze most of it. When I needed it, I simply quickly defrosted the amount I needed. It was almost exactly as good as fresh unfrozen.
