Lady A's Banquet

LOL. We always ate mountains for fruit - my dad is from Peru, so we grew up on "jungle juice" and fruit, but also lots of meat and lots of fat!

My dad only learned to cook chips when I was 12!

I can only imagine how frustrating it is, but look how far you've come! You're doing so well and anyway, the longer it takes to come off the better ingrained your habits will be!

That's so true Shrimpy. Sometimes you already know the answer to your troubles yet you still need a fab friend to drum it home. :hug99:

Yeah we always spice up our beans....actually we spice up most things in our house and seeing that Indian spice shepherds pie recipe on the recipe thread actually made me feel quite warm n fuzzy inside as it reminded me how my mum used to spice up EVERY dish Indian or not and if me or my brother ever protested then she'd say in an Indian accent: "don't complain! If any of your friends got to eat like this every day they would be really happy AND eat all of their greens" and you know she was SO right because my mates used to love having dinner round my house invited or not lol! Oh and nothing was baked 'Golden brown' it had to be slightly darker than shown on the packaging because it just didn't look right...bless my mum now I know where I get my nuttiness from about cooking things in a certain way from.
 
I think I love your mum! :)

I am with my dad on the theory that more garlic and more chilli makes everything better!

Yep my mummy is the bestest Shrimpy love her too bits.

Your Dad's right about garlic n chilli making everything taste better....EVERYTHING apart from our breath that is lol! ;)
 
LOL, that is definately an issue, but the way around this is to feed the person snogging you the same amount of garlic & chilli! LOL.
