think it's a strange thing to boast about start a thread about

I dunno but could you light mine for me? My lighters broken and it's a faff lighting it on the hob.

I smoke in the house, where children live! shoot me.

TheDevilWearsPrimark · 18/11/2009 15:14

BoF we had the best dippy eggs yesterday, lovely white ones with seedy bread. mmm

could I be pregnant?

lou031205 · 18/11/2009 15:14

YABU, but your choice.

TitsalinaBumsquash · 18/11/2009 15:14

I ate copius amount of Mr Whippy ice cream when preggers....... naughty naughty.

SomeGuy · 18/11/2009 15:15

I fed DW lots of nice Camembert and brie de meaux. To the OP: get some roquefort in, nicer than Danish Blue.

kidcreoleandthecoconuts · 18/11/2009 15:17

TheDevil - Funnily enough I used to love dippy eggs but went off them as soon as I got pregnant. And I could technically eat them too as they come from my hens in the garden...so there.

Danish blue??? YABVU.

Now, if it were roquefort or gorgonzola, that would be a different matter!

FWIW, here in Greece no one has advised me not to eat blue cheese during pregnancy. I asked the doctor about it once, having heard from friends in the UK about it, and the doctor laughed and said he thought it was a bit extreme.

kidcreoleandthecoconuts · 18/11/2009 15:18

I agree about the roquefort SomeGuy....also love gorgonzola

SomeGuy - great minds think alike! Danish blue just isn't in the same league!

iateallthecreameggsyummy · 18/11/2009 15:21

yummmy blue cheese!! I cant wait to have this baby dh has orders to buy me steak, blue cheese, pate and red wine as soon as im home!! yumyumyum

BitOfFun · 18/11/2009 15:22

I have totally forgotten how long to boil eggs for, and there's only one- bet I cock it up

alexpolismum · 18/11/2009 15:24

pate? Are you not supposed to eat pate during pregnancy?? I didn't know this one! I'm surprised my children were born so healthy, it looks like I did everything wrong!

SolidGoldBangers · 18/11/2009 15:29

Oh FFS. Enjoy it, OP, the chances of anything going wrong (that wouldn't have gone wrong for some other reason) are statistically tiny. HOw many people on this thread who eat blue cheese/soft cheese/pate whether PG or not have even had listeria?

TheDevilWearsPrimark · 18/11/2009 15:30

champagne and red wine? so you won't be breastfeeding then? (shakes head in dismay)

Fibilou · 18/11/2009 15:35

definitely NBU. I've been merrily eating bad cheese, pate, peanuts etc. Haven't given up alcohol either.

The last breakout of listeria in the country was nearly 26 years ago and that was from lettuce.

kidcreoleandthecoconuts · 18/11/2009 15:37

TutTutter - how did you know I was mad??? Is it that obvious??
