Re: Do You Remember When.......
LOL, quite true Tiffany. My youngest brother, unlike the rest of us whom, when babies, enjoyed the occasional bottle of warm tea complete with sugar and milk, would when given the bottle, throw it with all the force of his little arms, right across the room! He hated Tea then, just as much as he does to this day. Another of my brother's seemed to exist solely on Mashed potatoes or Chips only with Tomato Ketchup for his dinner. Mum and Dad tried everything to get him to eat other foods without success. That went on right the way through childhood until he met his girlfriend (wife) and she subtly introduced him to the delights of other food tastes. (He eats anything and everything now).Re: Do You Remember When.......
That brought back some memories, especially the lard in the chip pan. As kids, we used to watch it melt as it heated up getting more liquid until only a `crust` of lard remained floating on the top and that too slowly disappear. The lard was never filtered after use so got more and more discoloured as the days progressed. Never did us any harm eating chips a couple of times a week or having a good fry-up. (Still have one of those once a week except for the fried bread and sausages (replaced with healthier Quorn version).Re: Do You Remember When.......
We must have been posh as we had a fridge - well, a large cubic biscuit tin sunk into the ground outside the back door which was used to keep milk and butter cool during the summer.Re: Do You Remember When.......
Re: Do You Remember When.......
Yes. Lots of different things. No fridge but, being on a farm, we had fresh milk every day. Lots of it. Not pasteurised of course. And we had hens so a ready supply of fresh eggs. My father was a good gardener so we had fruit and veg on hand.Re: Do You Remember When.......
