What did you hate as a child, but love as an adult

[00100001]

For me it's mushrooms and also showers.

Mushrooms were the disgusting things that weren't nice in any way! Now I love them, eat the raw, fried, grilled, in soup etc 😋


I absolutely loathed showers, even to the point where I'd sit in the showe tray and try and have a really shallow bath! Love them now. Absolutely hate baths now and only have them when no alternative is available.


Not sure when I moved from a hate to a love...but there we go!

Socks - I used to absolutely hate wearing socks because the seam rubbed my toes. I now wear them inside out, problem solved.

@00100001 mushrooms for me too! Hated them as a kid. Now would eat them every day, just love them so much x

On the reverse side, when I was very little I loved pork pies. Now I think they're truly revolting x

Gardening. Used to dread a sunny Sunday afternoon, so booooring

No mum and I spend most of the time we visit each other in the garden during the summer.

Potatoes in any form other than roast. Now I love them - fried, mashed, baked, chips I am still ambivalent about though.

Butter on sandwiches. I used to find it incredibly disgusting, and would only tolerate it if it was really thinly spread. Now I love a thick layer of butter, especially on crusty bread.

@Lovestodrinkmilk - yes re. Birdwatching! I’m entranced by birds these days and will stop to look at them. Being in the countryside is bliss when I can too (I was an urban urchin). I think Germaine Greer said it comes with ‘looking out into the world’ in a broader way as one gets older.

Bedtime

[inomniaparatis]

Being sent to bed early. An early night is now the dream!

Another one for mashed potato, which I disliked as a child, but as an adult I realise it really depends how they’re made. Grey, lumpy or a fluffy, buttery delight! The same with gammon - delish and tender if cooked properly as opposed to a salty, chewy mess 😆!

Siestas! I grew up in a hot country and we’d be made to go to bed in the hottest part of the day. Now I have a nap most days
