Stilton: Hi people!

Day one of Nano completed, and just over 2000 words of my novel sitting smugly on my hard drive. It really is a good feeling to set off positively :-) And amazingly, I actually like what I'm writing and can see a way through the creative minefield ahead.

Hope everybody's noses are free of obstruction (shoes, underwear, pets, grand pianos) and your respiration is behaving itself. I've nothing to add to the conversation other than I once saw a TV show where a guy got a peanut stuck down the end of his how's-your-father (that's an English term for what boys have and girls don't). I can't remember how he said it got there or if he got it out - I think I'm stumbling into the realms of too much information, so I'll stop there...

I might need some of this:
That's a good start! It's also cool that you are liking what is coming out of your head. :-)

EndreWhiteMane: Guy in the mental institution was putting a cashew on the end of his thingie, taking it off, putting it in a dish then repeating this process over and over.
When asked what he was doing he said: I'm fucking nuts of course, that's why I'm in this place.

I will now go tape all of my fingers together so I can't type anymore. :-)
Amazing and terrifying at the same time. :-0
I laughed anyway. :-)

FearfulSymmetry: Just hit 5000 words for my novel! Unfortunately my health is still no better and my stomach ache has returned in full ... >.>
Fantastic!

5000 words with a body that's complaining is amazing :-)

The Nano endeavour is a case of ticking away at a list of landmarks, and you've killed off four of them already (three daily totals and the 5000 word barrier)!

You're allowed to take a breather if you want to, or keep going if it distracts you from your aches :-)

Whichever, I hope you feel better soon :-)

I'd take that guy out of the asylum and put him up as a candidate for presidency.

He already has my vote.

What he said. It's kinda amazing. You've even earned a rest.

I need to move away from the pc now. I must now delve into the amazingly exciting world of administrative law.

It's a good thing I don't have any power tools in the house or I'd be tempted to perform a self-trepanation.

Hi, Leo :-) It makes a big difference liking what I'm writing, and makes me want to get back to it and do more ;-)

How is your freedom going?
Is this peanut brittle?

I read how the Americas and Europe like their peanut brittle, so thought I'd have a look around for the British version. I know British cuisine is looked upon with disdain by many as being unimaginative and not much fun, but I think I've come up with something which will excite all of you...

Fantastic! I slept better these last couple of days.
The fact that I'm not anymore receiving midnight calls makes me really happy. :-)

I always hear people joking about the british cuisine. Is it really that bad?

Finally! Something that even mint sauce cannot spoil!

It must affect everything in a very positive way, knowing you won't be interrupted when you want to do something for yourself. I'm pleased its all gone now :-)

If I'm being honest, British cuisine is really very good. Traditional meals are very large and nourishing and they really are a pleasure. There isn't any of the fluff and nonsense of the continentals because British food was designed a long time ago to fortify and win wars. Its marching food, solid fuel.

But I know it gets a lot of flak from around the world, presumably from people who haven't tasted (and understood) anything 'olde' and traditional. Everyone is of course certain that their national cuisine is the best, and that's how it should be. I thought I'd just have a little fun with the worlds' perception of the kind of thing we eat here.

What's Brazilian traditional cuisine like?

Good morning/afternoon/evening, everyone. =)

Hopefully you're all having a decent day so far.
Doing good here. A lazy Sunday hangin' with my bro's, I suppose one could refer to it, what?

Hanging out with you're bruhs, bruh? That's so #kewl! You so chill, *offensive synonym for black person*!
Hey, whazzup, Soccorro dude?
It's a fun morning. I think I halfway poisoned myself with habanero relish. Add to that the fun of "Is it a cold, is it allergies, or am I just messed up from smoking too much", mixed with irrational impatience regarding a sale that I don't even know is coming this month, and things are looking good overall. -laughs-

Sorry for the delayed response. I was out to lunch. :-)

Now about our cuisine I don't think I'm well versed enough to fully explain it.
I can say it's quite varied and each region has different characteristics regarding food. I think this is due the mix of native culture and the several waves of immigrants we received during our history.
