Not so innocent Izzie

Once again, the Izzie has fallen foul of an evil Imperius Curse. Seven days it took to get us in the end. But we didn't really try too hard to resist since it was such fun


Guilt
What is yours?
Explain yourself
Culinary: Cheese, chickpeas, chocolate and chai Chocolate - a choccie a day keeps the dementors at bay. Chickpeas - just yummie and scrummy in every incarnation, chai - spicy and exotic and cheese - well - Izzie has a fat tooth rather than a sweet tooth
Literary: MAD magazine Izzie has a very black and twisted sense of humour and utterly adores the evil parodies and hypotheticals
Audiovisual: Alan Rickman as Severus Snape No explanation necessary
Musical: Chris de Burgh, Abba, Frankie Goes to Hollywood Yesss. Izzie used to like Chris de Burgh in the old days when he wrote and sang real songs like Satin Green Shutters, Crusader and Spanish Train rather than abominations like Lady in Red which are truly worthy of a fatwah. Funny about Abba - like most of their stuff except Dancing Queen which we absolutely hate with a passion - as much as Lady in Red - and Frankie - is most unusual for Izzie to like stuff that was fashionable at the time but Frankie were good kitsch not so clean fun
Celebrity: Robert Mugabe, G W Bush, John Howard, Margaret Thatcher and Eric Abetz Yesss. Politics - Hollywood for ugly people


Now Izzie waves her evil green wand and performs the Imperius curse on:-

Soy milk and cinnamon??? Sounds perfectly revolting - well at least the soya milk bit. Izzie's version of chai consists of real moo juice - accept no substitutes with cinammon, ginger, cloves, cardamon and nutmeg with black pepper being an optional extra.
The cafes here call it 'chai latte' and most use a rather repulsive sickly syrup as their excuse for the real thing. Tried it once - never again. Pity because they got the spices pretty much right but totally stuffed up with the sugar. The Juicy Beetroot cafe does real chai but they add a bit of fennel seeds which kind of ruins it . They add no sweetener at all but have brown sugar and honey on the tables so you can do it yourself.

Oh and Alan Rickman's sexy Snapish voice - he can Imperio the Izzie any time - we will leave the rest to the imagination ;) Discussions on such subjects are best kept from public view.
