Korossol Into The Ring 4

Hello again! I am skipping Sundays because I need a day of doing ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. Now, let's talk about food. I LOVE FOOD. I'm from a family of eaters. We eat when we met, we eat when we celebrate, we eat when we're sad... I think you get my drift. We love good food: meat and vegetables, fish and eggs, everything (and some strange ones). I dreamed for a long time of tasting snake. I tried bat (not very interesting). I even tried the famous frog we french are known for (I bet than very few of us eat frogs, actually): not that interesting either. I'm from the Caribbeans which means that our ordinary is a bit different from continental France. When my brother decided to become vegetarian (and not vegan), he didn't starve on carrots and turnips. He feasted on yams and sweet potatoes. On Christmas, our grandmother made him lobster and we were so jealous. (He certainly grew up big and strong. Vegetables didn't hurt him in the least.)
I don't know if I have a favorite food. I do love meat and I do love vegetables and I do love salad... I used to love potatoes, probably because we didn't ate them that often . Ice cream and chocolate because... every child love sugary things, I guess. Meat when I went to Uni because suddendly I could afford it (ah, the good days when I was feeling rich on a scholarship). All kind of fish because... Come on, people, I already told you that I grew up on a island! So fish stew and grilled fish, court-bouillon and blaff are very present on my menu.
I really can't use recipes written in English because they are in ounces instead of grammes and the shortcuts for quantities (like a spoon) makes absolutely no sense to me.

Hello again!

I am skipping Sundays because I need a day of doing ABSOLUTELY NOTHING.

Now, let's talk about food.

I LOVE FOOD.

I'm come from a family of eaters.

We eat when we met, we eat when we celebrate, we eat when we're sad...

I think you get my drift.

Had to look up this expression because it's my first time seeing it, but looks like it fits perfectly here.

We love good food: meat and vegetables, fish and eggs, everything (andincluding some strange ones).

I dreamed fFor a long time, I dreamed of tasting snake.

I tried bat (not very interesting).

I even tried the famous frog we fFrench are known for (I bet thant very few of us eat frogs, actually): not that interesting either.

I'm from the Caribbeans which means that our ordinary is a bit different from continental France.

When my brother decided to become vegetarian (and not vegan), he didn't starve on carrots and turnips.

He feasted on yams and sweet potatoes.

On Christmas, our grandmother made him lobster and we were so jealous.

(He certainly grew up big and strong. Vegetables didn't hurt him in the least. )

I don't know if I have a favorite food.

I do love meat and I do love vegetables and I do love salad...

I used to love potatoes, probably because we didn't eate them that often .

"didn't" is already conjugated in the past tense, so the following verb, eat, has to be in the infinitive form.

Ice cream and chocolate because... every child loves sugary things, I guess.

he/she/it in present tense has an s at the end

Meat when I went to Uni because suddendly I could afford it (ah, the good days when I was feeling rich on a scholarship).

All kinds of fish because... Come on, people, I already told you that I grew up on an island!

So fish stew and grilled fish, court-bouillon and blaff are very present on my menu.

I really can't use recipes written in English because they are in ounces instead of grammes and the shortcuts for quantities (like a spoon) makes absolutely no sense to me.

Looks like you used the French spelling of "grams"

Feedback

I'm lacto-ovo vegetarian, which means I eat egg (only chicken's, not other animals') but not actual meat of any animal/bird, so I loved the mention of vegetables in this post. And now I'm hungry.

Hello! Thanks again for correcting!
"I think you get my drift." I just realized that I heard it in the musical movie "Sweeney Todd"...
Yes, there are more to vegetables than green peas, seriously...

I think you get my drift.
