At least it isn’t a cricket player from the eighties. :D

My parent’s farm is in Qld. About an hour and a half drive from Brisbane:

Firstly: Pineapple should NEVER be on a pizza. Ever. Ham or no ham.

Secondly: Your Steve Waugh crush is only slightly less sick than my love of Tom Cruise…

Hey Helen, I’m from NSW. Our farm was in north west NSW. Did your parents get a place in QLD?

I’m so glad there are more meat/fruit rule people out there!

Sultanas belong in Christmas cake… that’s probably about it in my book.

oh, and maybe rock cakes.

I think you said that you’re actually an Aussie. Which state are you from? I’m a Qlder. The growing up on a farm thing made wonder because it reminded me of the beautiful block of land in the country my parents recently bought. :)

My mum did the saltanas in curry thing too. I still can’t look at saltanas without feeling a little revolted. :)

Leisa, fully understand the meat/fruit thing, especially apricot chicken. I have trouble even contemplating that dish these days, along with a kidney & cashew nuts dish that just sounds wrong, let alone how it tastes (a memory that’s stayed with me for 32 years) ewww!

I also understand the crush on Steve Waugh; and why Alan Border didn’t rate a mention (with that beard in the ’80s).

Cheers.

thanks David. Personally I don’t get why *everyone* doesn’t have the meat/fruit rule… obviously it’s just me.

I blame my Mum for putting sultanas in curry when I was a kid. *gag*

Oops. I forgot to tag other people, didn’t I.

You’re a self motivated bunch though… can a few of you tag yourselves? (otherwise I’ll come back and tag you later!)

Leisa,

Thanks for sharing. That was actually a lot of fun. Your meat/fruit thing was hysterical and I’m not suprised that you have talent on the Piano. I was suprised to find out that you grew up on a farm!

Good stuff.
