What are the 7 sins
We had the best dog in the world but for some reason I found walking him to be extremely boring.
To be honest, I’ve never been very good at doing things I don’t want to do, even if they are quite easy. I would pretend I needed to go to the loo to avoid having to clear up the dishes at the end of dinnertime, I would hide if I knew my parents needed help clearing up the weeds in the garden, smear my teeth with toothpaste to make it appear I had cleaned them and even in school I would secretly read books about making films instead of listening to what the History teacher was saying about crop rotation. When I was 11 years-old, I could be incredibly lazy. I can now admit to being the one who ate all the pies. If they are reading this – I am very sorry. I could even hear my hosts outside asking where I was. I confess to having sneaked into that chilly little room when no one was looking and eating some of their Christmas leftovers. My dream is to have a larder – a whole room dedicated to food. Friends of mine live on a farm and keep their food, especially leftovers, in a larder. I scoff it so fast that I start hiccuping like a fish out of water. Especially when I eat peanut butter on toast. I just get carried away and I can’t stop myself. It’s like a magic trick although I am not aware of doing it and I’m certainly not proud of it. “Where has your food gone?” you’d say and I would just shrug and blush. I know we haven’t met, but I bet that if we ever had a meal together you would be on your third forkful and suddenly drop your cutlery in surprise. I’m not a religious person but I‘m all for saying grace before dinner, for I am TRULY thankful! I love pretty much every kind of food there is except offal (have you ever eaten tripe? Oh my goodness, it’s like eating a rubbery nightmare!) But I will eat everything else and what’s more, I will eat it faster than you.
