Food list

I've been browsing some foodie blogs and came across this fun list from http://www.verygoodtaste.co.uk/. It's about traditional Christmas meals, but that's okay! I am, as my mother says, a "baby cook" so don't be surprised that I've hardly made any of these things.

1) Copy this list into your blog or journal, including these instructions.
2) Bold all the items you’ve tasted.
3) Place an asterisk after all the items you’ve cooked/prepared.
4) Optional: Cross out anything you never want to try, or add an exclamation mark after anything your really want to try. [I italicized things I don't want to try]
