    LOL.
    Thank you so much for the wishes, darling!
    I'm sorry my reply is a little late! I haven't really found the time to answer. I've been to annoyingly busy! I love the Scottish accent - I can hear that lilt in your voice! Wow, they seem like really cool stories, and lol, I understood!
    And oh, my gosh, how horrid of Google Chrome to do that to you!!!

    That cake, though, looks fab!!!!!!!!! <3

    ahaha. Well, I do get what you mean by eating it everyday/night. It gets tiring and it's just not good for you to constantly eat it! At home, we're veggies, my mum hates cooking meat at home (she doesn't really consider egg as meat though ), so we get veggies throughout the day and it's just annoying, although, after eating meat for a few days in college and such, I love the fried potato and okra my mum makes. They're yummy. And she makes this chickpeas curry thing that I really love! Lol. I love food, so once I get started on it, I won't stop! Sorreh!

    Oh my God. I just wrote a massive big paragraph with those two stories and Google Chrome refreshed the page on it's own without me doing anything. That's so unfair! I have to write it all again now!
    I have two favourites which are amazing stories I'm going to bore you with. The first one was about this girl who was sentenced to hang in Edinburgh (I think she killed someone or something) and after they hanged her, they threw her on the back of a horse and cart, but because of the cobbled streets, the cart was really bumpy and it re-started her heart. They couldn't kill her again because she'd already been registered as dead. She went on to live a long and happy life after that!
    The other one is to do with origins of a song called Loch Lomond (lock low-mund ) and it was these two Scotsmen who had been put in jail in England. One of them basically sold his friend out, told the authorities that his friend did it all and explained it in detail. He was set free and his friend was sentenced to death. So his friend wrote this song and it basically goes "Ye'll (you'll) tak (take) the high road and I'll tak the low road, and I'll be in Scotland afore ye (before you). Where my and my true love will never meet again by yon bonnie, bonnie (the pretty, pretty) banks of Loch Lomond" and it was his way of saying "You're going to walk back to Scotland, I'll be taking the spiritual path when they kill me. I'll get there before you, but I'll never be able to sit by Loch Lomond with my girlfriend again." It's so sad!
    I completely understand if you didn't get any of that. I'm so bad at explaining things, sorry it was a bit long!
    Scotland doesn't have a massive amount of traditional food that can be eaten for different meals and stuff like you do, we have a fair bit of biscuits and stuff (shortbread, tablet, macaroon) and some foods you could have with dinner like haggis (Um.. Ew.) But if you went to a supermarket there'd be stuff from all over the world, we kind of eat things from everywhere and sometimes integrate our food into it. Like haggis pizza. I think the most popular food is probably stuff from the chip shop though, which is kind of gross since it's so greasy and fatty. I don't mind having it sometimes like when we get back from holidays and are too exhausted to cook or something. But every night/week is too much!

    Haha. Yeah, and only then can we really figure out who wins!

    Yeah, I guess, that's the good part, yeah?! I LOLed so hard when I read that!

    Oh, yeah?? You so have to tell me someday!!
    And, yup, naan and there are other types of roti (flat wheat bread) that we make too. I love 'em! Much more than rice! Haha. Although there are occasions where rice triumphs, like with biriyani and when my mum makes some yummy gravies with the rice!
    What kinda food do you eat there?
    Hahaha. Yay. Twins. Yeah, Italian is so brilliant!
    I've never tried Haggis really. It sounded interesting, but clearly that's not everyone's opinion!

    Guess we're both going to be in some kind of animalistic bite fight then.
    You must be good if people are throwing you on stage, then! At least they weren't throwing you off the stage.
    Stories are awesome, we have some pretty cool stories about Scotland's past that I love listening to. It's so fascinating.
    OHHHH like naan bread? That's yummy too. Nom nom nom.
    I LOVE Italian food, pastas are some of my favourite foods. Better than Scottish food anyway. Haggis. Eurgh. Wouldn't eat it if you paid me.

    You are too adorable! I bite back!
    Hahaha. I totally get that. Yep, baby steps! But I had like no choice, 'cause they didn't have like anyone else to sing at that point. And well, since then, people have just thrown me on stage!

    Oh, yeah?? Nice. I'm so impressed! Haha. Yep, pretty spicy, but we can tone down the spice, no worries!
    You do? That's great! My dad will like tell you everything. He loves telling those stories in his own way, and I love listening to dad. He makes it sound so real.
    Oh, my gosh, you can so bring Rie! LMAO. Yeah, I eat rice like almost everyday. It is kinda a staple food, but of course, there's Indian bread and stuff too!
    Yep, poppadums, pronounced puppadums here are always around! I'm kinda sick of the food here, so my alternative would be something Mexicany or Italian!

    NOOOOOO! I'm not adorable! I bite. >.>
    I'm the same, I was in a Shakespeare festival a few years back, it was like 4 schools performing a cut down version of Shakespeare's plays (each one was about 30 minutes) and then were judged on how well they did it. We were doing A Midsummer's Night Dream and I wanted to do it so badly, but I can't talk in front of people so I begged and begged the teacher running it to let me have a non speaking part and I got to be one of Oberon's faeries. I just had to dance and look dark and mysterious. It was really fun though and was a good way to start. Like baby steps, you know? Haven't done anything since then, though.

    I REALLY DO. I actually had some (I think?) when I got home last night from spending the weekend with Rie. It was a bit spicy though so I didn't finish it. If we go out for dinner I prefer to go for mild stuff unless I feel like drinking a gallon of milk with my meal. I'm not good with stuff that's TOO spicy.
    I love listening to old, traditional stories and things about different countries' history, they're so interesting! Can Rie come with me? She went to a rural part of India for a month a couple of years ago and loved it. Except that she got so sick of rice by the end of it she won't eat it anymore.
    I don't mind taking home food, anything to help people do their good deed for the day. That and I like food. Do they include poppadums? Cause they're REALLY yummy.

    You're so adorable! But even I get super scared when I sing, even if it's just in front of a few people! Imagine how freaked I would feel on stage!!! Every time I go us there, I can't feel my knees, and I see alllllll those people looking up at me, waiting for me to screw up.

    Aw, mannn!! That's horrible! Naw, you're not an idiot. You're...forgetful.

    YOU DO?! that's great! Ooh, then, when you com here, I can make you some really cool stuff! Or when I come there, I could! Well, the difference mostly, in all of that is the difference in the way the ingredients are used. Haha. The food there seems to be pretty mld compared to our food!
    You sure can come! Bahaha. You don't have to pretend to be religious as long as you're interested in all the cool stories they tell us about how the festival came about, you're good to go. And if you visit anyone's house here, they won't let you go unless they give give you a small package of the food that they have made that day and offered to God. So it's like, hospitallity at it's peak, during holidays, not that it doesn't happen otherwise, but, it's so much more during festivals!

    Hahaha nope. If I know someone's listening I get even worse than usual beause I'm sat there thinking "I'm crap. I'm messing this up. I played that bit too fast. Did they notice? Do they realise how bad I am? Oh nooo! "
    Yummy, I'm really annoyed, I forgot to bring a drink to college with me today and my money is in my other jeans. I have to wait till I get home around 5 and it's only half 12 just now. I'm an idiot.

    That sounds so awesome! I have to be honest, I absolutely LOVE Indian food! Except most of the stuff you get around here was actually invented in Britain, but it's still yummy! Can I come to your festivals and steal some food? I promise I'll pretend to be religious!

    aww! <3

    Oooh, wow! you play for me sometime, yes? And you sing or me? Naw, I bet you're just being modest!

    LOL. That is SO true. Saves on a LOT of my resources! And I eat good everyday!

    Well, Indian ones. Lol. In praise of some of our Gods and stuff.
    That is so true. Some of our festivals are brilliant fun. And with all of them, you're guaranteed to get the best food in town!
