I don't actually mind the taste of duck so long as it comes with a bit of orange sauce, and I don't think too much about what I'm actually eating  ------------- Mama to two earth walkers & two angels.

Yeah I am not a fan of duck either - tho DH is going to breast some this year, and I will try cooking just them... He prefers it when his mum cooks them anyway!
I just don't get the excitement thing! ------------- Mum to two beautiful kids
