I love to talk about food as much as the next person, but it was your charming accompanying artwork that really caught my attention on this post. I love it. It's definitely one of my favorites! : )Farmgirl Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04851855517852917202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26917748.post-83511480479861335972007-10-18T11:55:00.000+02:002007-10-18T11:55:00.000+02:00mkihc: odd to remember a time when I didn´t like h...mkihc: odd to remember a time when I didn´t like honey, but there you go.

I still have a strong aversion against blue cheese, but I´m open to the idea of liking it someday.<BR/>The key is definitely in eating food the right way, in the preparation, quality and flavor combination (take beets for instance, not a true fan, but when combined with green apples or goat cheese, you really can´t go wrong).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26917748.post-3032093476185948752007-10-15T23:50:00.000+02:002007-10-15T23:50:00.000+02:00I really like your blog and this post in particula...I really like your blog and this post in particular.

Also hot sauce and spicy food generally -- never ate it when I was younger, and now I can't get enough of it. As for chocolate and lemon, the combination is a classic in Italian ices, the kind you buy in a small cup from a cart at a street fair!Lydia (The Perfect Pantry)https://www.blogger.com/profile/18005372315838352874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26917748.post-55629147925968366722007-10-15T13:32:00.000+02:002007-10-15T13:32:00.000+02:00The wisdom of experience!I can't remember when I d...The wisdom of experience!<BR/>I can't remember when I didn't like honey or blue cheese.<BR/>Gave up cucumbers for a while after my mom upchucked them on me once.<BR/>Always liked oatmeal.
