5 Things You Didn’t Know About Me

March 22nd, 2007 | Category: Memoir/Meme/Misc.

Shaun tagged me for the famous meme. So, here we go:

I was born 10 pounds and with Pertussis (whooping cough). My mom had it as well, so I was never breastfed. I also rejected anything that resembled a nipple, such as a pacifier or a feeding bottle. From the moment I was born, I started eating with a spoon. My mom recalls me screaming at the top of my lungs each time that spoon was out of my mouth. The only thing that made me shut up was another spoonful of food. 30 years has passed and nothing has changed.
I started school at the age of 5. Thanks to my older brother, I learned how to read and write at the age of four. I rather not tell the first three words he taught me.
I am known for my extremely unhealthy and dangerous dieting methods. Once, I lost 40 pounds by eating 3 apples a day for a month. Now I know better.
I was once a radio DJ at the college radio station. I had many stalkers.
Over the years, I have worked under many unreasonable and demanding managers. One of them ordered (!) me to create artificial winds in the office to test the resistance of an outdoor banner under several different conditions. I just laughed. Directly at his face. I am seriously considering compiling many of these unreasonable assignments in a book.

Tastiest chickpeas ever

March 18th, 2007 | Category: Vegetarian

And very healthy, too. It is quite rare that I feel this much passionate about a recipe. The cooking method gets rid of all the gas and chickpeas taste as if they have been soaked in cream for days. Mark this post, dear reader. Give it a try and let me know what you think.
