Nicolas Cage On England!	Permalink

As you guys know I hail from the uk, but am the first to admit that I am not much of a patriot, in terms of some of some of this country's history, the politics, I tend to see myself as a being of this One world. But...here Nic lists pretty much all the things I do really love and that are unique about my country, the greenness, the architecture... So I enjoyed this, I hope you do too! http://video.answers.com/nicolas-cage-on-england-517274150 __________________

Excellent find Lula! Thank you! I truly enjoyed this piece of the interview. I too, am fascinated with England and have, for many years, thought about moving there as my ancestors originated from there. Unlike America, England is encased with deep history which I find intriguing. That's something I'll have to undertake - a cornish pasty. Lula, is the cornish pasty standard fare in England - like fish and chips? When does one usually enjoy a cornish pasty? __________________ Whoop, Whoop!!!!

You have english roots Gina? how cool! do you kno from whereabouts? yes, england has that somehow magical long history! lol, well the cornish pasty too has a long history too but I could not say it is standard english fare..nor fish and chips! these are things england is known for, but perhaps are mroe part of a perceived tradition than a real one. I am sure there are lots of people who enjoy fish and chips maybe as a weekly family event, and cornish pasties, more as something they buy in than cook at home, and there are lots fo fish and chip shops, but england is a multiucltural country with different people enjoying lots of different cuisines and a person is just as likely to have pizza or sushi, or for me thai, indian, french, chinese! I do not eat either fish n chips or cornish pasty though, so maybe i am not the best person to ask! but the cornish pasty is something that perhaps has sadly become just a squashed processed thing in plastic packet you buy in a motorway garage, but there are still many tradional cornish pasty makers who pride themselves on it, so those would be the best to try! it is a lunchtime thing i guess, or with somethign else as an evening meal! __________________

I think I posted this before, but can't find it now, the one I am thinking of had more to it, plus we saw the interviewer. This is cute, I love the way Nic answers, hope I get to experience some of those things myself some day! I just had a Cornish pastie the other day, very yummy. Like a turnover, Gina, with a meat and veggie filling. __________________

Most enjoyable! __________________ Whoop, Whoop!!!!

Thanks so much Lula on the cornish pasty history! Ahhh, just like an American - to assume Brits walk around eating cornish pasties and fish n' chips - LOL!!!!! From the research my family has done, are roots are out of the Yorshire area which I believe is in the northern part of England. __________________ Whoop, Whoop!!!!
