I was so excited to find that cutter too :)<br /><br />Heidi- Thanks! I can still taste the mixture if I think about it! The vegemite potatoes actually work really well- belive it or not :) Nostalgia wins over taste any day!<br /><br />Leonie- Thanks, I like to play with my food :) Glad it's your favorite!<br /><br />April- He is indeed! Thanks! I love tapioca, yummm....<br /><br />Tori- Mmmmmmm, French Toast! Yumm!<br /><br />Msihua- My dad is very military, and even runs his farm that way with set hours and routines. I just want to have fun :)<br /><br />Winston- Thanks so much! It's amazing how food is so connected to memories and nurturing isn't it? You're welcome!<br /><br />Lisa- He's a clever man, curry powder can cover a multitude of sins :)<br /><br />Kim- Just for grownups- don't tell the kids!<br /><br />Judy- I don't remember my dad giving us dessert, you lucky things! My littlej steals them too :)<br /><br />Lorraine- He is great! I think it was just army and boarding school institutionalisation being too hard to fight maybe? Cockies Joy is a nickname for Golden Syrup- I was never sure why though, but we loved it more than honey and I still do ;)<br /><br />Celia- Thanks honey! I have had that idea in my notebook for ages, just had to get the right tools. Awww shucks!<br /><br />GourmetGetaways- I had to buy a quite expensive set just to get my little soldier, but it was sooo worth it :) My husband's the same, uses every tool in the kitchen, maybe its a testosterone thing?<br /><br />Amanda- Maybe that's why I rebel and love to do the cheffy 'plate up' for family meals?<br /><br />Nic- Thankyou, I think he was a bit embarrased though!<br /><br />Anna- Thanks! I'm a story teller at heart :)<br /><br />Cassandra- I love googie eggs, cackle berries,chook fruit and bum nuts too!<br /><br />JasmyneTea- Maybe we should have a culinary intervention for them both?<br /><br />QuayPo- My dad is the best! I have a wonderful little springloaded tool that cuts it perfectly for me.<br /><br />JanetNZ- :) Well, we have so many wonderful things in Australia,we don't want to be greedy.

He went to the bakery for those and he got 'fancy' ones. Favorite childhood food? Lots of choices, probably Mom's bread, Dad didn't know there were heels to Mom's bread until I left home. Cause there isn't anything better than the heel of a loaf of bread fresh out of the oven with butter all melted in.
