I thought that I'd do good on this one. As I've mentioned before, I'm married to a "foodie".

I missed 9, 11 and 12.

I can't believe that I missed #9 but where I come from "Shepherd's Pie" was usually made with ground beef for some strange reason. I know that in other places that is often called "Cottage Pie" but that's how I was brought up and to me Shepherd's Pie will always be beef. Sorry JK, not meaning to disagree, just explain.

Good ones though. I enjoyed them. Made me feel hungry. :biggrin:
 
I,m just a meat & taters kinda guy , I never heard of none of the stuff , Interesting though . I,ll take an F . thanks JK :biggrin:
