Mar, who said anything about sitting up?

Me and my tablet are cosily tucked up in bed.

monnagran Churchmouse does the lunch club at her church. When it started there were quite a few volunteers, but they sort of drifted away quite quickly and now there are just two, doing it every month rather than every few months....sound familiar?

I'm always looking for ways to cook cauli and broccoli so that I don't have to taste the bloody stuff. Not mad on cheese, but it's got to be better than broccoli... _pale_

Personally I just wouldn't bother! I can't stand sweet potatoes, fennel or okra so I don't bother.

Glad there's someone else that doesn't like sweet potato, thought it was just me.

Nope - it is horrible stuff! Give me swede any day :rotfl:

I like turnip and mushrooms and fried tomatoes. Can tolerate cabbage & cauli in small amounts, broccoli is disgusting but I eat it to be healthy (oh pukepuke), and the other nameless green stuff is sewage but I bung it into soup. Once I grew turnip greens and actually they were nice - although I fried them in half a pound of butter lol so maybe not that healthy

Monna I won't share my 'toys' if you are going to be rude about me and my hobbies!
Mar, atta girl, my Dr suggested I swapped from butter to Activia margarine. I replied that I refuse to eat anything that is a chemical !!!! storm.

I don't like turnips, I don't think I have ever tasted fennel, but vinegar is almost as bad as Turkish Delight which I hate with the same vengeance as [/B]mar[/B] hates the vegetable beginning with K.

Hester everything is a chemical even chocolate and your L&M are made of chemicals.

It is lovely and warm in our flat at 2.50am it's 2.50pm that is cold. The storage heaters are cold by then.

I wouldn't eat anything I don't like, even if it is good for me.

I hate sweet pots too and fennel, okra, turnips, swede, parsnips and strawberries! Luckily I love all green veg though, my faves are broccoli, spinach and peas

Forgive me for asking but what is/are L&M?
