    But in my defence I was the only girl in my Hall that knew how to roast potatoes!!!

    Oh sheesh don't! I remember sharing a house with two girls for three months (three months too long!) and neither of them new what to do with fresh ingredients, if it didn't come in a packet, can, frozen and could be zapped in the nuking box they had no idea!

    Hmm and to think the Government decided (in their wisdom!) decided to cut Home Ec from the curriculum and then wonder about the increase in obesity!

    I know, I think it's really important that kids learn how to cook properly. My Mother hates cooking with a passion, but always showed me how to make things.

    But I guess there is always the fact that I ask how to make something if I'm not sure!

    How are you today?
