MemeMe !

Okay, tagged and bagged... I guess I'm "it". Started by Lydia of The Perfect Pantry and to Stefanie from Cumin & Coriander, here it is then - 5 things I don't want people to know about me, as Stefanie so nicely put it - 5 things people don't know about me :

1. I haven't been blogging for long. But i must admit I was really into it when I just started out. You know, what with the debugging and the adding of bells and whistles and whatnot. I ended up spending monster sessions in front of the computer. The longest blogging session I spent non-stop was about 15 hours straight over the weekend. Yayyy! I have no life :)

2. Butterfingers... No, not the candy... ME! I once bought a crock pot and a blender in the same week and ended up breaking both of them the week after :(

3. The people from Egg-aholics Anonymous will probably be giving me a call after I admit this one. When I go grocery shopping and buy eggs, I open up two cartons and switch out the smaller ones and leave with a carton of the big ones :P

4. Anyone has a favorite childhood teddy bear that they still keep around ? Well, mine is a "Mickey Mouse" blankie. I've had it for over ten years and I really don't see us getting a "divorce" anytime soon :)

5. Last but not least, I don't snore in my sleep. Well, at least I've never heard it before, so I must not :)

Does it feel better clearing out those skeletons? Hmmm... I guess so. But definitely not as good as it feels passing the "skeleton-clearing" thingy along to 5 of my new found blogmates I must admit !

Without further ado, the nominees are:

1. Claude of 1001 recettes
2. Aria of passionate non chalance
3. Susan of food blogga
4. Asha of foodies hope
5. Paz of Adventures of Chef Paz

*runs away laughing maniacally* oh, your reward, how about some jumbo shrimp fritters ? :)

Hi,

I'm back, don't worry ;-) I was in a special cours for sport and trekking....I'm expert in this branch too ;-) Very interesting answers I should say !!! And thank you so much to have thinking about me for the skeleton-clearing session, but I have already done that on my blog ;-) But there was no translation, so just for you here:
1. When I was 4 years old, I would work as a "profesionnal pic-niqueur", meaning I will be paid to pic-nic all my life...just crazy
2. I'have driven a BMW M5 and Z3 sport version, it was amazing ;-)
3. I was not sucessful when I have tried to make macaron, just a big mess in my kitchen
4.The name of my blog was first Chez Claude-olivier, then in vino veritas
5. I make a lot of mistake in french so I have to re-read every post many times to be sure that there is not too many mistakes ;-)

So, that's my answers !!! There were presented with the recipe of Rasya and Satay ;-)

So once again, take you for asking me !!!

Cheers
Claude

Too many memes spoil the blog, but a nice meme every now and then is fun, isn't it? I love finding new Asian (especially Malaysian and Singaporean) recipes, and I love your blog!

MW, I must lack a life, too, haha! I haven't timed my longest session because I totally lose track of my surroundings when I start blogging!

Did you break your crock pot by putting it in the blender? hee hee hee! As someone who takes her eggs very seriously, I'm going to report you man!

Anyway, thanks for adding me to your list of food buds! So sweet! :)
