I love eating food ... it’s essential to keep me alive Try to ensure my fruit and veg portions are the recommended five I’m not convinced if I eat big slices of carrot or banana cake That this will be counted towards my fruit and veg intake!! I try to eat quite healthily but I have the occasional sweet Raiding my ‘sweetie drawer’ for a crafty chocolate treat My favourite meal is a juicy steak with a pile of thin french fries I try not to eat it too often or fat will collect on my bum and thighs! I close my eyes when I see tiny lambs at the farmer’s gate - as a roast lamb dinner is something I love to see on my dinner plate! Contest I love Food Sponsored by Lewis Raynes 06~25~16

To eat or not to eat, that's the question. But if you do, stop short of indigestion! My favorite foods are lamb, lobster, mushrooms, scallop potatoes, asparagus, chocolate, custard, and, of course, fine wines. Best to you in the contest, Jan. / M
