Conversation that took place a short while ago between me and the husband:
Self: Yeah ok. ...But that's not what I tried today.
Husband: ok tell me!
Self: You HAVE to guess!
Husband: You want me to go through every single food?
Self: yep.
Husband: It's 10pm.
Self: Ok, fine. I'll give you a clue... we have recently seen an advert for it! And now just guess the thing you would never guess!
Husband: ok... MacDonalds. Lemon Juice. A Pizza. A Burger. Blue Cheese. Onion Soup. Iced tea. Sweet Potato. Leeks. Popcorn. Wasabi Paste. Cinnamon powder. Ginger biscuits. Bacon. Prunes. Noodles. Banana bread. Tree bark. Christmas Cake.
Self: Oh, you are really not good at this.
Husband: I give up.
Husband: ohmysoul......
Husband: it took us an hour and a half to get to Quorn?
Self: You got it! I had QUORN!
Husband: Ok, so what about the Quorn?
Self: No, I just wanted to tell you.
"GUESS what I had today" means "GUESS what I had today"
Husband: are you serious?
Self: Do these eyes look like i'm kidding?
Self: Do these eyes look like i'm kidding?
husband: (0_o)
"ha ha ha - you will never guess!"
ok
{sometimes i am quite painful}
Self: Yeah ok. ...But that's not what I tried today.
Husband: ok tell me!
Self: You HAVE to guess!
Husband: You want me to go through every single food?
Self: yep.
Husband: It's 10pm.
Self: Ok, fine. I'll give you a clue... we have recently seen an advert for it! And now just guess the thing you would never guess!

* the end.
Side Note: I'm not vegetarian but I tried quorn sausages for the first time the other day (in case that wasn't clear). It was more of a test to see what it tastes like than anything else (and to see if i could actually make a switch to vegetarianism - don't tell my husband). Although it's no rump steak - I actually really liked it (given it had a good lashing of tabasco sauce). I had a look at their website for some proper quorn-ish details and the home page says that
"swopping the mince beef in your spaghetti bolognese for quorn mince just once a week for 4 weeks could mean reducing your fat intake by up to 72 grams - which is equivalent to the fat you would burn swimming more than 7 miles"
... so who knows.. maybe this vegetarian thing has something in it after all...
and no, this is not a sponsored post.

Lol @ xylophone!
Hahahahaha, you really make me laugh
Those quorn sausages are fantastic! The first time I got the I ate the whole bag within a couple days..
gurrrrrrl! me too.
(even made warren eat one)
Haha you guys are so funny!
I want to be a fly on the wall with some of your conversations. I would probably just fall of the wall from laughter!

hahaha we welcome all flies into our home.
Haha 'huh, corn?' was my first comment when I heard about Quorn! I've been vegetarian for years (moral not health), and if you're considering it for healthiness, do compare the fat gs in them across brands, as Tesco tends to be lower than Quorn brand, and Linda MCC sausages had to be re-recipied a few years back for being higher in salt and fat than normal sausages. With the mince, add a crap load of flavours - garlic, spices, herbs, whatever, because it has none of its own but will absorb all your flavourings scrummily.
BEST soy-food item uses IMO: sausages in toad in the hole, 'chicken pieces' in thai green curry and really garlicked/thymed mince in chilli. Enjoy the new discoveries!
oooh thank you! will def try some of those! (I will disguise it so that husband never even notices the difference! haha )
HAHA this made me laugh out loud cos its totally something I'd do to Gareth too!
Haha I play these guessing games too, and it's always very anti-climactic by the time we get to the answer. And not as fun as I originally thought it would be. Side note- I refuse to eat Quorn because no one really seems to know what it is...some sort of mushroom fungus thing I think.
Don't fall for the marketing ploy. It basically just processed food. Steak is so much better! :)
Haha I love playing the guessing game with my hubby too. Although sometimes he guesses the answer straight away which is almost more annoying lol
This cracked me up so much! I never would've guessed either!

Hehe, I showed this to my boyfriend and it reminded him of me. Now he's frustrated just remembering how annoying I am playing 20 Questions with!
bahaha!! I love playing this game and I hate it when people just want you to GIVE them the answer! Where is the fun in that?!? :)
