Sweetnicks has tagged me for an interesting new meme going around called 23/5.

Basically, the tagged blogger has to go to his or her 23rd post (or closest to), find the 5th sentence (or closest to), and then write something interesting about it on his or her blog.

Here are the Official Rules:

1. Delve into your blog archive.

1. Find you 23^rd post (or closest to).
2. Find the fifth sentence (or closest to).

1. Post the text of the sentence in your blog along with these instructions. Ponder it for meaning, subtext or hidden agendas…
2. Tag five people to do the same

I don’t have 23 posts yet. Instead, I have a 21^st post on Eggplant relish.

Here is the 5^th sentence from that post:

“That’s funny; they didn’t look like eggplants to me.”

Hmmm… Now, let’s see: What can I write that’s interesting from this sentence? I don’t think there’s a meaning, hidden text or agenda in my fifth sentence. Okay. So, this is what I can come up with:

Funny: Me cooking.

Interesting & Fun: I’m constantly learning something new about food and cooking – I really didn’t know that there were different-looking types of eggplants.

I have two new vocabulary words – aubergine and courgette….

I now pass the meme to:

Angelika at The flying Apple

Michele at Oswego Tea

Melissa at The Traveler’s Lunchbox

Mrs. D at Belly-timber

Tattum at Tattum’s Kitchen

I hope you’re able to participate. I’m sure that you will come up with something better with your 5^th sentence from your 23^rd post than I did. Have fun! Thanks, Sweetnicks!
