Some call it magic, others call it inedible, unrecognizable, stupid looking, and definitely not worth $50 a head!

(I have no idea what this is! But the creative use of what looks like celery leaves is ridiculous looking).

At least Maria is wearing gloves and appears to have her hair tied back, so that's progress. Her starters do look a bit too 'Instagram' to me. I'd rather enjoy eating it than looking at it.

I'm giving credit where credit's due! MPK's garden is lovely and just shows what can be done. Fanny has far more land but has achieved next to nothing even though she desperately tries to claim how much it has developed. In addition, Michael has learnt the names of all the flowers whereas people like Fanny and Marie Wiik have no idea what things are called, and frequently mis-name them. It proves that they have no real interest in nature, whereas Michael has. His vlogs are so much better and more interesting than Fanny's. It's a shame he went off the rails and that their friendship came to an end. They could have achieved a lot more together. I hope Michael is settling down and wish he could find a suitable partner to stick with. I doubt if Fanny will ever find anyone decent as she has no decency herself, whatsoever. MPK, despite his Spanish shenanigans and the way he let his patrons down, has a lot more skills and personality than PJ and I hope he will remain positive.

VERY similar to what I'd do for kids' birthday parties, icecream on the bottom, oreo crumbs on top, gummy worms and a plastic daisy growing on top.. Huge hit with the kids... 50 euro guests.. I think not.

So being Polish Sarma is like Golumpki, almost I guess different places have the same kinds of food, but delish is delish no matter what it is called...

I hate parsley. Now cilantro, I’m down with the cilantro.

Sadly (not) I’m one of those people to which cilantro tastes of soap. If a recipe calls for it I reduce the amount and use additional leafy green herbs such as mint. My reaction isn’t as extreme as my brother’s, who was known for spitting it across a room.

Fanny is stuck in the nouvelle cuisine style of the 80’s - that’s the brief she’s giving Maria

once or twice a week I go to a s. c. "salad bar" around the corner of my firm. they have 12 salads you can chose from the menu and then they mix them in front of you. some of them have cilantro in it and nasty thing realy ruins the food (and mustard+honey dressing, don't know which is worse). and i guess they got some complaints over it because one day the girl who works there asked me if i wanted it in my salad. i very gratefuly declined.
