It must have been great growing up on such diverse fare - and I can so sympathize with the cravings for home. :-)Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07405488711826994282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2875871179543064338.post-60190682925683754112008-05-26T12:50:00.000-04:002008-05-26T12:50:00.000-04:00HAHA!

She's got such a creative imagination.<BR/><BR/>Toast soldiers traditionally refers to the strips of toast. But in OZ, every Aussie kid grew up with toast soldiers as being strips of toast with butter & vegemite to dunk into the soft boiled eggs. The operative word here being VEGEMITE! It was the best breakfast ritual!<BR/>Although, being an Aussie kid with Filipino parentage, I had quite multicultural breakfast rituals - eg. Aussie style toast soldiers, then champorado to boot! It's like our family Christmas feasts in Sydney - my male cousins and uncles/titos prepare the Aussie style shrimp on the BBQ (God I miss Australian seafood! UK just does not compare), paired with things like brasso de Mercedes for dessert!<BR/><BR/>(Excuse the lengthy post - as you can see, I'm craving for a Sydney feed! I can so relate whenever I read your posts about Rama missing the Philipines)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
