That and mint sauce (and possibly tea).
Jul. 5th, 2011 09:26 amSo yesterday was the 4th of July. It seems we're losing touch with celebrating everything and anything worth celebrating linked to a place we've lived. Sadly enough we even had to pause for a second to think about what one typically eats on the 4th of July. Hamburgers? Corn on the cob? Hot dogs? Strangely I associate Jell-O with my US years, as well as Thanksgiving whole turkeys and pumpkin pies. And possibly lobsters. Most Frenchies associate any kind of Jell-O and its clones with English folk though, they enjoy describing with horror their experiences of English folk offering them bits of jelly cake and how traumatised they were by the wiggly bits. It seems anyone who has ever been on a school trip or a language exchange stay to some part of the UK was scarred for life. It's something I will never understand, I think that the wiggly part is awesome. In other news, it's hot and stuffy and not too windy and therefore pollution levels lead to fun times. Ah, itchy eyes and stuffy allergy nose, how I did not miss you. And in other, other news... one day I shall get through these three rolls which were scanned back in April! |
