I'm still wary of mushrooms. I used to pretend I was allergic to them. I honestly can't remember why, but I was a child/ teen who who can fathom that thinking?
I'll admit I'd let you convert me.
Tonight, tabbouleh and roasted veg.
You know what? I've eaten tabbouleh for a while. I've only ever seen it written.
If I was ordering it from a menu I'd have to point at it like an ignorant furriner.
Although at least I'd ask for the pronounciation these days - there was a time I'd just have been too embarrassed to admoit my own shortcomings. Probably about the same time I was pretending to be allergic to fungus.
NB - Dads really is sensitive to mushrooms and our family friend Maureen is properly allergic. But with both it comes and goes. It's a fun thing to pretend because no-one can catch you out.
