I can't remember where I saw this first......

How do you like your eggs?
Poached on wholemeal toast with butter and a dollop of ketchup on the side.
How do you take your coffee/tea?
Tea, Earl Grey or English Breakfast, medium strength, small amount of milk. No teabags. Loose tea, in a teapot with a nice knitted teacozy to keep it all nice and hot.
Favorite breakfast food:
Well, you can never go wrong with a good bacon sarnie, but the most memorable breakfast I ever had was in Bali, when I had sweet french toast, with cinnamon and orange in the batter, into which were dipped thick slices of gorgeous white bread. They were served with slices of orange, the most fantastic homemade yoghurt and local runny honey, which was very mild in flavour. I had it all with a glass of fruit tea containing fresh fruit and mint leaves. It was truly delicious.
Peanut butter:
Yes please, with marmite, on toast. Or in a nice spicy satay sauce for chicken and vegetables.
What kind of dressing on your salad?
Depends on the salad... I don't like commercially produced salad dressings at all, so as long as it's fresh and homemade, with no preservatives, I will probably like it. I love basil and balsamic dressing, and homemade garlic mayonnaise is to die for.
Coke or Pepsi?
Dandelion and burdock. I am not keen on cola drinks. I do like a nice rum and coke occasionally.
You’re feeling lazy. What do you make?
Pasta carbonara, or a salad.
You’re feeling really lazy. What kind of pizza do you order?
I never order pizza take away. If I am feeling really lazy I will make beans on toast.
You feel like cooking. What do you make?
Apart from soup whilst I think about it, I never know. I get out all my recipe books, browse for hours, then decide on something seasonal, go out, buy things then cook and indulge.
Is there a food you refuse to eat?
Brussel sprouts. They make me feel sick.
What was your favorite food as a child?
Heinz Tomato Soup I think. I still love it.
Is there a food that you hated as a child but now love?
I hated loads of things as a child that I now love. Chicken livers.
Is there a food that you loved as a child but now hate?
Tongue. I used to love a tongue sandwich, but looking at a whole tongue made me feel queazy, and I have never been able to eat sliced tongue since. I do remember that it tasted delicious.
Favorite fruit & vegetable:
Fruit: Crunchy Cox's Orange Pippins, and Scottish strawberries and raspberries. I love Comice pears too, and cherries. And tomatoes.
Veggies: hmmmm. I like most vegetables. I always look forward to seasonal goodies like asparagus, and beetroot. Artichokes. Sweet potatoes. Spinach. Man I love veggies.
Favorite junk food:
Tortilla chips and salsa.
Favorite between meal snack:
Dried, fruit, nuts and seeds. A nice crunchy apple.
Do you have any weird food habits?
I don't think so. Though if I have a Jaffa Cake, I like to nibble the edges off, then carefully peel the jelly off the cake, then eat the cake, then the jelly last. Oh, and if I ave a bowl of jelly, and it's wobbly enough, I like to slurp it off my spoon, so that it makes rude noises. I then ritually collapse into a stupid fit of uncontrollable giggles. But I don't think they are weird.
You’re on a diet. What food(s) do you fill up on?
Soup, salad and fruit.
You’re off your diet. Now what would you like?
A nice juicy rare steak and home made chips.
How spicy do you order Indian/Thai?
Quite spicy. I love spicy food.
Can I get you a drink?
Margarita please!
Red wine or white?
Red in winter, white in summer.
Favorite dessert?
Cheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeese.
