    Love avacadoes and guacamole! And olive oil - can't live without that! Esp. to dip homemade bread. I have to admit I'm a milk chocolate kind of gal - can't quite get a taste for the dark stuff, sweet tooth I have!

    mmmm...your list sounds so good! we love our hummus too - i make it with a LOT of garlic so it's got a bit of bite ;-)

    i'm with you, i want my own bees but i'm waiting until i know we're settled. from what i understand they can be tricky to move. hopefully soon!

    Yes, lemons - my favourite food in the world - sour dough, tomatoes, olive oil, basil, you know where this is going - red wine, avocado, mandarins, lemon grass, garlic, prawns, coconut...

    & giving thanks for all who helps supply me with these delights, Amen.

    Thanks Stephanie, that was fun.

    Love Katie x

    we have very similar lists :) except for the fish. maybe one day i'll grow up and learn how to eat fish. i'd have to add chickpeas. just tonight avery asked, "do we have any garbanzo beans?" no, but tomorrow i'm buying a box of them.
