Tag! You're It!
We were quite violent when we played tag at school! The word tag was accompanied by a hard slap or punch to the arm. This should be a much gentler experience!
The Left Over Queen has tagged me in my first meme. So here goes!
Tagged! 7 Random Foodie Facts
1 Mushrooms, mushrooms, mushrooms! I just love them! I love them on thick crunchy toast, in a creamy risotto, all herby on pasta and garlicky on bruschetta.
2 I cannot stand marzipan, liquorice or aniseed and I just don't know why that is!
3 I remember when I was quite young I used to climb up on a chair and on to the kitchen unit. Then I could reach the cupboard that housed the Colman's French Mustard. I would then sit on the unit and eat it with a teaspoon, until my inevitable capture by mum or dad!
4 When I went to college and lived on my own for the first time, I had to start cooking for myself. My Repertoire wasn't very extensive, I can tell you! I lived off salads, pizza and sandwiches. But I did have a signature dish - Macaroni Cheese. My mum taught me how to make a good cheese sauce from a roue! My guests were impressed!
5 I love watching cookery programmes and I don't even mind if they are cooking with meat, I know they will get around to making a side dish or dessert!
6 My favourite kitchen gadget is my potato ricer. It reminds me of a toy I played with as a child. It was a barbershop of plastic people! You put plasticine(playdough) in the people and squeezed. Long gooey hair squished out and then you gave them a haircut! The potato ricer is just really a grown-up version of that!
7 My greatest pleasure is coming home after work on a hot summer's day and sitting in my garden with a good book and a glass of chilled rose! Ah bliss!
Gentle tap on the arm!

Well, I love marzipan and anise and fennel...but I can see how people might not like those...
ReplyDeleteA glass of wine and a good book? How can anything be better?!
I'm with you on the marzipan!
ReplyDeleteA fellow mushroom lover! I'll try to get to this little game later on.
ReplyDeleteFor now, I'm off to make stuffed mushrooms. Recipe and pictures coming soon to my blog.
I've responded to your challenge Holler.
ReplyDeleteDear holler. Guess what. I was ata friend's place recently and they pulled out the play-doh kid's hair thing! I was really impressed - what a cool game. Obviously, I missed out in my childhood.
ReplyDeleteOk, so I'll have a seat in the garden with Jenndz and have a glass of wine, Lisa will make stuffed mushrooms for our meal, Beccy can make a cake for dessert (no marzipan)and Little Miss Moi can bring the play-doh barber game. Sounds like a party to me!
ReplyDeleteLisa my little green fingered friend, I liked your meme! Yoga is the answer, it is very calming!
ReplyDeleteThanks for that! You responded really quickly!
Thanks Holler for your blur about the Foodie Blogroll! :)
