Morning all - jeez its taken me two hours to catch up Over There!
You know how protective the French are over their cuisine? Son's fiancΓ©e is French and all his mates are too so with him being The Brit their larder contains all sorts of English Stuff that is creeping into their diets.
* English mustard His mates love it on their Roast Beef instead of that weedy Dijon stuff.
* Worcestershire Sauce splashed all over a Croque Monsieur (cheese toastie).
* HP sauce on cheese butties and the bacon butties
*Branston pickle and my pickled onions that I make
* Trifle. I made two gigantic ones for a birthday party the other week that were scoffed largely by French teenagers who said they'd never had anything quite so yummy
Carrot cake was another one that I make occasionally so recipe was passed to son's fiancΓ©e who now makes it for her mates too
It seems we have corrupted French Cuisine so we'll be in deep doo-daa with the Culture Ministry

Yes we're having pancakes tonight too but with sugar and lemon juice; I cannot stand chocolate spread and I detest honey so thats that in effect
Mine too! I love colour.
I am addicted to pickles. Anything vinegary. Just bought 10 jars of cockles in vinegar from Sainsburys. Pickled onions are my favourite. The hotter the better. Needless to say my poor tummy isnβt always a fan!

I hate biscuits and hardly eat chocolate. Am stil fat though.
Me too; I'm also a Veggie so why am I fat eh??
Also donβt eat raw cake mix or you will get worms

reminds me of thisβ¦
Bad mothers let their children lick the beaters.
Good mothers switch the food mixer off first.
When my lot were little they were always hanging about waiting for the mixing bowl - now its the dogs doing it

Speaking of funny old adages, as a kid were were not allowed to drink coffee because my Gran said it stunts your growth! LOL
Oh and if you swallow gum it'll get all tied up around your bones
