Burnt tongue!

Just popped in to let you know I burnt my tongue!

It was on a low calorie soup, so in a way probably quite fortunate as they never taste that great and it made me think about.....Guide camp.

Every year me and my sisters would go to Guide camp and we did girl guide kinds of things, treasure hunts, build shelters, create poems, plays and songs to sing by the campfire! AND cook all our food with a hand built fire, even breakfast, even in cold wet English weather with the use of firelighters, bleuugh makes me feel chilly thinking about it.

So the reason I think of this when I have burnt my tongue is that EVERY year on the first night the Guide leaders would cook heinz tomato soup on the campfire while we all sang songs (so weird) and EVERY year without fail I, along with many others burnt our tongues!

Well it helped, burnt beanfeasts always taste better with a burnt tongue, a way to survive camp food!!!!

Ahh guide camp those were the days!!
