internet glue

Here is some serious internet glue. Some day we will look back and wonder why he didn't just grasp A and wave it over to B and drop it there.

Ok, so this is results you get for a once omnivore now vegetarian answering the food tasting meme. Most of the stuff that is neither bold or striked through I had no clue what it was. Most of the ones which are both are just things I won't eat now because I'm a vegetarian, but there are a couple of things I just not going to make time for anymore, like carob!

Also, while I haven't been to a Michelein 3 star, I did have the vegetarian tasting menue at Charlie Trotter's sometime in the late 90's.

The Food tasting meme

1. Copy this list into your blog or journal, including these instructions.
2. Bold all the items you.ve eaten.
3. Cross out any items that you would never consider eating (or eating again)
4. Optional extra: Post a comment here linking to your results.

But I am not going to get sucked in to Big Brother UK. Well, maybe a little.

I am going to watch the football though.

I confess. I love American Idol.

I am also a Eurovision fan.

And I like X Factor.

Please forgive me.

who knew I was a form of poetry

I am the tanka.
The attention of others
Is unnerving, and
Since I try not to draw it,
I'm left alone. Which is good.
