Long socks and Lasagna

I love Melbourne!

Two comments for you. One is from Gilmore Girls:
Emily: "Go for traditional vows. Make up vows can be so tacky. Shirley Martin (made up name)'s daughter vowed to cook her husband lasagna once a month. Now a word like lasagna should never appear at a wedding."
(note: Tim and I did make up our own vows)

Next is a philosophical point from my wonderful sister Sandy:
You can always push down long socks, but you can't pull up short socks to make them long.

I love Melbourne!

PS Capsicum is not a vegetable either.

Great Vegetable controversy Part 2

Now maybe Legumes aren't vegies (thanks Andrea!).

Maybe this is a ploy by very clever parents

Child: "But I don't like vegetables!"

Very clever parent: "Its not a vegetable darling, its a fruit/legume/root"

Reminds me of the time when Tim and I were on our honeymoon and I convinced him that ginger "bean-curd" would be an excellent choice for dinner- even though I knew he wouldn't agree to it if he knew it was actually tofu. Hehe, the power of a title!
