Sounds delicious, but the only way I can get my other half to eat sprouts is to smother them in garlic and cheese! LOL!

😀 I bought the first ones only yesterday, and I will just eat mine lightly steamed, then prepare his separately!

I love Dave Barry’s list of fears. Brussels sprouts wouldn’t have been on mine, but liver … maybe …
Love how I make liver and bacon and onions 🙂 as long as there is food in the house we shall never starve 🙂 how are you? Each time I clear my computer of garbage I loose all of my favorite bloggers 😦 damn computers 🙂
Hi there! I’m following you all the while. Was just admiring all those beautiful moths. I’m fine, but busy with our company. I’m in the middle of editing a piece for a client all about the benefits of honey. I spend what time I can in our garden but it’s never as much as I would like. Enjoy your liver – I know how good it is for you and there are ways of making me eat it. 😉 🙂

I have been flat out selling prints, selling Red Poinsettias and tomorrow EARRINGS 🙂 then I shall rest and blog 🙂
