    Have your taste buds changed over the years?.

    Never have liked sprouts, but do eat 3 or 4 just to be good the same with liver a small amount, I cook it occasionally as my hubby Andre loves it. Don't go alot on perculated coffee, it's usually too strong, I am a tea person but do like it fairly strong. So I don't think my taste buds have...

    Shera I think you are right, I have been noting down everything then typing it up and saving it so I can add it all to my tree. I only have a cousin left who is my moms brothers daughter and she, like me never asked questions. She will be thrilled when I send her a copy of all you people...
