What typical evening meals did you eat as a teenager? Did your mother or father prepare them or did you? What was your favorite? Least favorite?

While at Boarding school we ate what was in front of us - no choice. I do hate brussel sprouts with a passion though. The cook must have had a cheap supply.

After school I lived in a flat with some other girls - cheap was the order of the day which means a lot of spaghetti and visitng other people when the money ran out. Cant remember much about food for those days but Green Ginger wine was the in drink in the mid 60's.

I have been saving for a Macro lens for my new Canon EOS 400d camera (rebel XTi). got it yesterday and here is a macro photo of the centre of the gerbra I showed a few days ago. Not perfect but exciting to see what the lens can do.
