4. Best Childhood Memory (Ages 0-16)

Can I have your veggie lasagna recipe? I could use low-carb lasagna noodles, so it'd be all right.

The Way We Were always bothered me because Robert Redford's character never actually loved Barbara Str... I can't spell her name. I feel like it would have been a better movie if he'd seemed to really love her at some point. The entire thing was in her head, I think. Tell me I'm wrong?

Oops, I've been operating under the guise of a half-decent cook - I nicked my recipe from Rosemary Conley! It's on here:
http://www.goodtoknow.co.uk/recipes/295753/Rosemary-Conley-s-Quorn-lasagne

I don't really deviate from this and my other half reckons it's a good substitute for the real thing.

You're entirely right about Redford's character, but I think that's the appeal of it. The romance was in her head for the most part and Hubble remains cold and distant despite her best efforts proving, depressingly, that however hard you try to adapt and however malleable you are, sometimes it just doesn't work when it probably should.

I am a hopeless romantic - it gets me everytime! :tears:

Best of luck with the cooking! :thumb:
