Lloyd surprised me on Tuesday as he had Fed-exed a tin of caviar to us!! It was one of my goals to try caviar this year as I have never tried it! I always see it on tv and in movies - especially in one of my favourite movies 'You've Got Mail' where Joe Fox steals the caviar 'garnish'...
I was making myself a piece of toast around 5pm Tuesday and Lloyd started fiddling with something on the island - I wasn't paying much attention and then he handed me something that looked like a tin of shoe polish! I didn't really focus on it and he was mumbling about something....and then I realised what it was!!!! It was sooooo funny! I was thrilled! So excited! I couldn't wait to try it :) The caviar came with a pack of these little pancake type things that you eat it with - so we all tried a bit. My first mouthful I think I had a bit too much caviar and too little pancake and it was DISGUSTING!!
OMG it was soooooo fishy and YUCK! I just ran to the sink and was sick! And of course Lloyd was taking pictures of me trying my first taste of caviar!!!! hahahaha It was GROSS!!! I am so glad I didn't try it in a restaurant!!
So then I tried another bit - a smaller bit of caviar on a bigger bit of the pancakey stuff - and then it was really nice! I really liked it! It isn't something I would go out of my way to have - but I wouldn't NOT eat it!
But I am 38 and I HAVE had caviar :)
Susannah and Laurence were NOT impressed. But they are 12 and 14 and have already tried caviar and I'm pleased. I think it's important to try these things. Be adventurous!! You only live once and life is short!
Ok...so.....whats next????????
