Things you didn't expect to like, but do

[BiggyJ]

I really, really did not expect to like the Stacey & Joe TV show.
But I do 🤷‍♀️
Their whole set up is just lovely - extended and step family are just one big family
It's just an easy watch, very wholesome.

Homemade patatas bravas.

Fennel seeds in curry.

Freekeh.

Scallops.

Aldi's version of clover butter. Why was I paying for over priced clover for so long?!

Kimchi. Delicious.

Crack. It’s so moreish

open water swimming in a lake

Blackpool. I was expecting the worse kind of tacky poverty-stricken dreary North Sea depressing shit hole but it was actually some of the best fun I’ve had. And great fish and chips!

Weightlifting.

Dukkah because I thought I didn't like fennel. But apparently I have grown up enough that I do.

Mumsnet

Hah I thought the opposite about Stacey and Joe, loved them on instagram and love her stuff but the show made me realise how awful he is!

Mine would be Jane Austen, and paneer (not together)

Never been to Blackpool but I had similar with Great Yarmouth

Stranger things (usually hate anything remotely scary)
k pop demon hunters
new Wednesday series
coconut based yoghurt

You skipped a lot of it then. (Disclaimer - DH grew up there and even he thinks it’s a dump once you’re away from the proms). It’s the most deprived local authority in England at last count.

Berlin

Torremolinos and yoga 🥰

Wetherspoons

My husband’s ex-wife

Amateur Dramatics. I reluctantly went to a local show recently and it was the best thing I've ever seen.

Beer.
Mumsnet

Clarkson’s Farm, completely avoided it for years as I thought it would be a pile of poo & I assumed Jeremy Clarkson to be totally up his own arse, but I’ve just binge watched all 4 seasons in a week - loved it!! 😂😂😂

Cottage cheese

Monaco!

Gretna green much more lovely than tacky

Oh really! That's a private joke holiday destination between me and my best friend, but now we actually really want to go 😂
