As sort of a white fudge without the chocolate. <BR/><BR/>When I lived in the UK, I interviewed three times for a position at the Royal Museum in Edinburgh, but ended not being chosen because i wasn't Scottish! Ya think??? As soon as I opened my mouth or read my resume, they would have known! I would have lived there in a heartbeat!Pigtown*Designhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13775512940294150252noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1495761271974457229.post-52129287388543953672009-01-22T10:20:00.000-08:002009-01-22T10:20:00.000-08:00I've always wanted to do one of these.

It was good, though a bit too sweat for me. I remember thinking I would add orange zest to cut through the shocking sweetness if I ever tried it at home.Athenaeushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07869191202008904097noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1495761271974457229.post-49199161835794245312009-01-22T06:37:00.000-08:002009-01-22T06:37:00.000-08:00Did you ever eat something called tablet in Scotla...Did you ever eat something called tablet in Scotland?
