Hehe... I'm trying to picture Steve wailing out the karaoke. I might have to witness it for myself one day in order to believe it.  ;)

Yeah, I'm not sure that's ever gonna happen.  :P

Haha.... if Adrian ever did, I think I would stroke out. He gets embarrassed enough when I sing karaoke!  ;D

Can it be my belated New Year's Resolution?  :P Like I make those.....

Maybe let me know some of his favourite songs and if Mr MLG and I agree they are karaoke suitable - not all song are - maybe we'll buy them if they are available!

Yeah I don't think Radiohead really lends itself to karaoke!  Or Portishead either.  Will try to think of some 90s pop tunes though (Housemartins?).  Maybe something in French or Spanish... Hmmm.

Food with ginger as a main ingredient... yeah, I don't get why either.  :P

I love love love ginger.  I am getting on a sort of cinnamon kick though.  I've been using it in savoury dishes.

Recently I've not been able to get enough of smoked salmon (said in my best Sean Connery imitation).

I went through that last year along with a pretty serious mascarpone kick.  The salmon kick sort of stopped all of a sudden.  The mascarpone one continues so I don't buy it.

I am on an Eastenders kick.  I am totally NOT a soap person, and while I watched a couple episodes of all the biggies here (Eastenders, Corrie, Emerdale, Casualty), I didn't get into them despite appreciating the difference between them and American soaps.  Starting with our move into our own flat, I sort of latched onto Eastenders for some reason.  I now schedule our evening around it.

Tomorrow I have one of the IT guys at work going all the way to Oldham (from Leeds) to pick some Krispy Kreme donuts up at a station on the M62. In exchange I've promised to bake them cookies.


The boys pulled through! Hooray! I have two glazed donuts looking at me and I'm seriously the happiest girl in the world right now.

Oooh, I definitely indulge in a bit of Enders when I'm in Pompey. Love it!

I've recently tried Greek yogurt, and absolutely love it. I've been having like 2 things a day, and it's healthy too! :) Yummmm!

Well since I'm tuna-less, looks like I'm embracing my old habit of Mongolian Grill.
Annnd....I'm predicting that I'll soon become addicted to the Bar Method. I had my first class today!

Haha! It seems it only took two-three classes! Good for you! :)  Just heard on the radio that  the closest gym is now doing a special membership/no contract/start up fees for $1/day, and you can choose the days, and do any of the classes...So i might get into another Yoga kick! :)

That sounds like a good deal! I've never done Yoga, but I think some of the moves that the Bar uses are similar.
