2. Oh, me, too! I LOVE roasted vegetables, especially brussels sprouts, tossed with some pancetta and balsamic vinegar. Yum! Also, roasted beets are very addictive, but they turn your pee red if you eat too many (Boy, did THAT scare the piss out of me!) I love raw veggies like carrots, beets, and broccoli grated into a salad. It's a great way to get more vegetables into one's diet.
I have become a huge fan of roasted veggies. I did a big pan of sweet potatoes, parsnips, leeks and butternut squash the other day -- droooool. I haven't tried beets at home, but I've had them at a restaurant and thwey were divine.
I was super lucky, yes :) We lived out in the country and my mom and stepdad had had horses for ages, so it was kind of a natural progression. He was a POA (which totally sounds made up, but it's an actual breed) named Duke. Unfortunately the year I got him I was so sick I couldn't sit up without barfing, so I didn't get to ride him till about four days later :) It's still my dream someday to have a horse again...
I've played snooker a couple of times but the bumpers drive my crazy. It feels too much like pinball lol
How did I get interested in playing pool... It's hard to remember, now, but I think really it must have been because my best friend and I spent way too much time at bars in high school, and I hate sports so staring at the tv's wasn't an option. Plus it was always fun when some guys challenged us thinking we'd be an easy victory, and we trounced them. Hugely satisfying.
I know, when I think of all the years I wasted not liking sushi I just want to cry lol Will definitely try your sprouts recipe. My latest favorite is dijon-braised sprouts from SmittenKitchen.
