You took cooking classes in France? That's so cool! Where? What did you cook? How fun! I lead LB when we dance too - we don't dance very well, because neither one of us knows how to lead! I've heard the book about Salt is really good - now I've got a reputable source, so I'll have to check it out! And you made me giggle with your 8 tracks comment - I don't buy the dvd's either...the only video I ever bought was "Braveheart" and then they came out with DVDs, so I quite. Great list, Vickie, it's always fun to learn about you!
I went with a non-cooking friend and we spent 4 days in Provence at some villa way in the country. We had a blast and I drank my weight in wine and never once got snockered. I ate Rabbit for the very first time there and I did like it. It was a little stringy and dark like chicken thighs and drumsticks.
The book about Salt takes a while to read but you learn where our common every day expressions come from like "She's the salt of the Earth". Or "She's worth her weight in salt". I loved that part about the book. I love history and this is really a great lesson in salt and where it comes from. I can't recommend it enough.
Pardon me?? You've tagged everyone you know?? What about the guy who got you started in blogging? :-P
OMG! You like such silliness? lol! Okay, I stand corrected!
I don't, know...I've just never been tagged before, so I wouldn't know.
