I have never won anything of note in a raffle or a lottery, except for a jar of chutney when I was 10 at a school fete. It was so terrible it put me off chutney for years, until I was game enough to try it again and discovered that it was no where near as disgusting as I originally thought it to be.
The person below now likes something a lot that they once thought was absolutley vile.

Actually I've gone the other way round, I can't stand sweet cereals now like sugar puffs or frosted flakes, I don't even like standard breakfast cereal unless it's sugar free.
the person below
can please let me know,
whatever your thinking
whatever you find a reason or rhyme,
whatever your thinking,
whats on your mind.

Food.
Food is on my mind. Like a man supposedly thinks about sex, I think about eating.
I'm in love with food, with the eating, tasting, smelling, cooking, chopping, crushing and crunching. There is no end to my admiration for Food and Eating.
I'm not an overly adept cook, but I have been known to have moments of intuition with those peculiar little vials of potential in the cupboard above the stove. I'm certainly enthusiastic and am known to make a big mess in my (con)quests.
There's the anticipation and the build up, the consuming and the afterglow of a good meal.
The person below is similarly obsessed with food and will tell us all their greatest cooking / eating moment:

[Out of sequence aside: I bought a lottery ticket Blissed - for the first time in my life I think - but I didn't win anything.
Probably just as well, or I'd have had the ethical dilemma as to whether I should give you half!
I'm not normally so suggestable (quite the contrary), but it would have made such a good story if I had won.
'So, Mr. Calenture, we believe that you have never bought a lottery ticket before and now you've just won $1,000,000! What made you buy one now?'
'A giant rabbit from Bath bus station told me to do it on a porn site forum'.
Back to the reminiscences of a foodie ...]

That would be me, similarly obsessed with food, though my greatest RECENT moment of taking in something was what I described earlier this week in the Muscat /synesthesia thread. i think it will be a while before i top that exquisite pleasure.
HOWEVER, not five mins ago I made the perfect frites. perfectly. And I shall now share with you thepiece (on another blog) that inspired me to that meal:
(he put in a bit about his reading as well and since you all like to read, i'll not delete that:)
After finishing "Palace Walk," I immediately went to the library, grabbed the other two books, and dove into "Sugar Street," which totally confused me because it starts with the fortunes of the family completely changed. "Ah!" I say to myself, "this is the mark of a brilliant writer! He is picking up many years later and will fill in the pieces as I read along." And to a certain extent, this was true: many things get filled in, but there are also many, many gaps, and as I finished the book and prepared to move onto the last book, "Palace of Desire," I felt unsatisfied. Perhaps all those mysteries would be cleared up in this final tomb.
I open to the first page and it describes the scene of a character who had aged and died in the previous installment. I scratched my head, opened up to the title page, and there it was: "Palace of Desire: The Cairo Trilogy II." And so I was confronted with the truth: I had read the 1st book, then the third, and now I was going to read the second. Boy, do I feel like a jackass. All it would have taken was to look at the inside of the book and find out what order they go in, but noooooooooo, I just plowed through this book, got myself completely lost, and now I'll have to read the second book to fill in all I missed between the first and third.
or I could just read "Atonement."
There are certain requirements to making the perfect french fry. The first is that you use potatoes that are fairly old, because they have dried out and will therefore give you more concentrated flavor and better texture. They must be fried twice in a saturated fat or oil (in Belgium, which has the best fries bar none, they use horse fat.) They must be fried twice: the first time at 300 degrees to cook the inside of the fry, which will give it a fluffy texture. The second fry should be at 350 degrees, which will give it the pleasing brown color and crunchiness. There is no other way to do it, and any restaurant that says otherwise is just lying.
Bruxelles, a Belgian restaurant on the corner of 13th Street and Greenwich has the best fries I've tasted (other than going to Belgium itself.) I had them at a joint called "Steak Frites" near Union Square, and while they were tasty and looked presentable, they lacked the characteristic crunch of a truly great fry.

yep beautiful turns of phrase just effortlessly slide off the top of her head. If I actually read any books I'd know who to compare her to but she's probably gonna be as important to us as Shakespeare and when you have a superstar in your midst you very often don't know it.
I like this
"He found reason to brush something out of my hair and leave his face close to mine. The tip of my nose had nudged his ever so lightly as I lifted my chin just a fraction. There is something so sweet about the seconds that exist between that wanting and the kiss."

The person below knows Arielles stuff is very lyrical, and will prove it by turning the above extract into a song. (Arielle if your offended by it, just have it snipped.)

The kiss
He found reason to brush something out of my hair
and hold his face closely there
The tip of my nose had nudged his so lightly
as I lifted my chin ever so slightly.
Chorus
It's something so sweeeeet
the seconds that exist between that wanting and the kiss.
It's so sweeeeet so sweeet
It's the time that exist's between that wanting........... and the kiss

Bullshit!
Looking normal sucks. I get passed over in Job interviews, I get turned down by women because I dont have "That certain something". You seem to fade off into the crowd if you look too normal. To the majority, you are nothing more than a quidam.
But you wont know me, until you know me

Oh dear
Sorry :) it can throw a bit of pressure on you if people like your work but you've got the right approach, to keep enjoying yourself doing something you love and hope someone likes it.
and talking of Gala I love her blog http://pornocation07.blogspot.com/

oh I just had to respond to this Blissed because my clothes today have been inspired by all the tennis on tv but with an 80 twist. On the weekend I went to Kmart and invested in some black trackies and bright white dunlops, the trackies were originally for pijama's but I like them so much I'm going to see if I can get away with wearing them in public!!
The person below use to wear dunlops back in the olden days.

*I can vouch for her extra-cuteness today*

Oooh I bet you can!!
I think everyone can vouch for her ordinary everyday hotness.
I met 2 great people on the train today and told them all about IFM, I said basically they wank, in front of 3 cameras and he looked embarrassed and she burst out laughing and I told them about giving kudos to people who give you pleasure and she seemed pretty interested. He was a lovely bloke and I might be wrong, but I think with guys including me, theres a bit of "I've got real sex, I don't need all that stuff" when in fact we've all put our keenest fetish into google hence the embarrassment.
Oh you've just decided me to buy a pair of Dunlops, when you run, it's lovely and springy and thats good for your whole body.
the person below has used google to explore their keenest fetish, with a mixture of concern, self loathing, guilt and ecstasy.

I had a mate write a sick note for me once when rugby was scheduled for P.E. (remember: always stay ahead of the person with the ball, that way they can't pass it to you). I don't recall what I was suffering from though.

Lol I'm actually nearly 3/4's of a stone under wieght having had some form of fatigue syndrome and it takes months and months for me to put this weight on as I'm naturally lean anyway. I hopped on the train on tuesday to see a specialist and she calmed my anxiety and said I'll put this weight on over the next 6 to 8 months :)
When paying for their shopping at the checkouts and much to the annoyance of the people waiting behind in the Que. the person below fumbles for their small change, often dropping it all on the floor. the person below can't pay using a credit card because they never remember their pin number or they'd end up spending thousands they haven't got.

This is very true. I have very limited feeling or dexterity in my left hand which makes handling small change very difficult. What's a pin number?

Good luck with that mate. I recently lost a lot of weight as well due to change in medication (I normaly weigh about 110 pounds and sent down to about 85). It is taking me ages to put it back on again.
