What will be your famous last words?
Submitted by ngocaroo.
Simple.
I would step outside.
I would stare hard directly up into the sky.
and I would say quizzically...
"It definitely looks like a Piano?"
What are your three favorite snacks?
Submitted by Sunscreem.
Being as I submitted the QotD it would just be rude if I didn't answer this wouldn't it?
1. Cheese on Toast
Specifically...
2 slices of white bread, toasted, some proper boring mature cheddar cheese grated and mixed with chopped white onions..
Add a cheeky sprinkle of some Italian herbs and pop her under the grill.
Splash with Lee and Perin's and dip in Heinz tomato sauce.
My mouth is watering just thinking about it.
2. Crisps
OMG - I have such a bad crisp fetish.
At least a packet a day?!
It's true...
I can hear my sister moaning at me from 400 miles away.
Specifically Flame Grilled Steak - or Cheese and Onion flavour...
Each crisp having the seasoning licked off before consuption!
Sad?
Oh yes!
3. Muller Light
I know? Not really a snack is it - but I did go through a phase where I was buying the 12 packs of Muller Lights from Asbo and getting through the whole lot in about 3 days! The Rasberry and Cranberry one makes my mouth tingle... what can I say?!
Oh my god - how much am I craving a cheese-on-toast/crisp/muller-light smoothie now?
What are five things you're good at?
Submitted by HapaLove.
1. Telling a funny story. Like most of my friends... we know how to deliver a good anecdote.
2. "Computers". Although I try my darnedest to keep it quiet lately as I keep getting pestered!
3. Nightclub Lighting. As in operating the lighting to proper music in a nightclub.
4. Bringing friends together.
5. Drinking. Oh god yes. Drinking.
Do you buy products made locally? Is there anything made in your area that you love?
There's heaps of very local products here in Aberdeen - the most popular being:
Rowies aka aberdeen rolls aka rolls aka butteries.
Perhaps harshly defined by my old uni mate Lard as... salty badly formed stale bread. They break the laws of physics on two counts.
1. They remain at a constant 160oC long after being removed from the toaster. Oddly no matter how many times you burn yourself, it's impossible to remember this fact
2. They can soak up an entire 500g tub of butter.
Best served hot with spread and jam - usually in morning before taste buds are active... or when getting a drunken lift home from a friend, at which point he'll discover most of the Rowie in his foot well the next day.
Stovies
Usually prepared at least 3 weeks before being served.
Contains potatoes, some onion and - erm - 'meat'.
Simply made by boiling all 3 ingredients together. Removed from the boil only once any nutrients have been completely boiled off.
Finally mashed up an serve with oatcakes and beetroot usually at a cheap wedding.
Cullen Skink
I'm out of my depth here as I've never eaten it. I cant.
I'm convinced it's already been eaten once before being served.
Basically warm wet - erm - 'fish' soup.
Only served when you're NOT hungover otherwise projectile vomitting is automatic. Mostly prepared in 'traditional' (ie. shit) restaurants. The kind of places where they serve prawn cocktail in a clam shell.
Smells worse than cat food and as a result is usually served in very large open spaces.
I would go on - but I'm feeling bilious.
