The ladies of [Eating Club] Vancouver tagged with a meme and I thought it would be fun to get maybelle's dad to answer the questions. Afterall, he is but a vague spector on this blog though a major force in the kitchen. HE likes to call himself a literary device because he seems to only be in the post if it helps the story. Hey, what can I say? I love to spin a yarn.
While I am not prone to memes, the ladies are my kindred tastebuds in Vancouver, so here you go.

Thanks Maybelle's Mom :)
Hey, I have an award for you! Stop by and pick it up!
It was great reading about you and Maybelle's dad. Makes it more fun reading your blog. :-)
LOL - brilliant. Loved comparing the 2 sets of answers, and I would do exactly the same thing as you if I ever found my self to be unexpectedly very wealthy :)
I had to look up kesar pisa: so, saffron & cumin? Is that correct? or is it the kesar mango?
Also, CURLING!! Hahaha... I've curled twice in my life. I really enjoyed it. But I can't get anybody else to go try it again with me. The interest is *VERY* low, I must say. ;D
"Favorite smell = Maybelle"
Aw.
So what is kesar pisa flavored ice cream. I am intrigued.
OhioMom: looking forward to yours.
Natasha: thanks.
Alexa: glad to hear that.
Jeanne: thanks. and thanks for visiting.

I enjoyed reading this as well. So much so I've read it three times in the past few days... and forgot to comment... and forgot to repost... I don't know where the heck my brain is. So sorry. :(
Thanks so much for passing this on!
