Happy anniversary mingo, when J and I had our last few days away we cooked fillet steak for the first time, ooh it was good.
Mima, bananas have to be just right for me to eat but as you say fab in a smoothie.
I opted for homemade chicken soup from the freezer for lunch in the end.
And another happy anniversary from me to Mingo ... may we ask which one? And can you give the name of it without googling it? (meaning paper, diamond, porcelain or whatever)
Rest assured there will definitely be a fried egg on top of the bubble and squeak. It's not proper b & s without.
Love chicken soup...I've yet to make a good one.
And I needs bananas and berries for more smoothies. I have a sports massage booked for tonight at 8.15
not really looking forward to it but it needs doing.
Mima I make stock from the leftover roast then simmer that with stripped off chicken, leftover veg and usually sweetcorn and onion, parsley, black pepper. Blitz it up and freeze it in batches.
I'd like a poached egg with mine please Muttley.
Bananas have about a 12 second window when they're nice. Otherwise they're either unripe or too ripe. Ick.
Thanks for the warning Autumn, that sounds pretty grim!
Cheese and ham toastie for lunch I think...I quite like halloumi Mima, great marinated and then BBQ'd, but you're right, definitely squeaky teeth cheese!
Or leather on the modern list, mingo.
I hope Muttley has enough lefovers, Cinders.
Hope so
Our anniversary was 2 weeks ago, 10th and it was tin. I got a tin of soup given to me
Cinders
24 years in September for us.
Blimey - I barely made it to 4 years with my OH (made it to 3, split up, got back together again 6 months later) - although we're not "married" and not likely to be...and even if we were I doubt she'd ever go in for anniversary marking....we struggle with Christmas and birthdays as it is.
My parents have been married 30 years in November and together nearly 35 years...sweet.
Beebs - that sounds delicious soup! I may have to make a roast chicken JUST so I can have soup! And I can buy those funky soup bags for the freezer from Lakeland...ooooh!
Mingo, it was a Ping Pong - are they not particularly good? I've never had dim sum before, so can't compare.
I'm getting fed up of getting wet twice a day going over London bridge!
The dim sum portions seemed small, but the liquid content of the allegedly 'long' cocktail were even smaller. I've never seen so much ice in a glass
Tonight I shall mostly be replacing the tube in the back wheel of my old bike, before giving it away
It was a work thing, I don't really go out in London much (or anywhere else for that matter!). I went because it was someone's leaving dinner.
I really do prefer to go home! I make better cocktails, too
mima
We celebrate our starting going out anniversary, 28 years on Monday 7th May and our wedding anniversary. We usually try to go away in May and are going on a week on Sunday for a couple of nights.
In none humdrum news J has just phoned and said lets eave everyone at home and go out and eat tonight.
Hope that isn't too exciting
pah to small overpriced cocktails,Wikie
Ahhhhh Beebs...that is so cute! I think J has the right idea - go out and have a fab date!
Cocktails...oh I LOVE cocktails...but not tiny ones! That is just a tease.
Damn. Pouring again and very dark. Missed the train so I'll get the next one.
I'm starving, literally cannot stop being hungry! Reheated pasta bake before the massage of doom tonight...what an exciting life I lead!
Muttley I do like your humour
Kate F do you call him the current MrF like Wogan does
I did Asda and the school pick up as the younger ones had stayed on for GCSE classes.
I'm delighted that he suggested it Mima. Curry or Chinese is the decision.
Don't have Thai in my bit of Somerset, Katie
I need my neck and shoulder unknotting if there is a massage on offer.
just inhaled a couple of slices of halloumi while tea is reheating. I NEED to get a microwave!!
Beebs - its the neck and shoulder with me too...hoping he can give me some biomech advice too...fingers and vertebrae crossed.
Evening/Morning Mr F
Have a fab meal out beebs
Lol at current MrF. Mr C is v2 also, managed 6 years married to v1!
I managed 12 years with the first Mrs Muttley (there is no Mrs Muttley Mk 2 in the offing). I did refer to her occasionally as the current Mrs but she was from foreign parts and didn't get the joke. She also hated the phrase "the" wife.
Nor did she appreciate my Les Dawson stylee mother-in-law gags (eg, "I always know when it's your mother at the door, cos the mice throw themselves on the traps").
I had planned bubble and squeak but in the event it was closer to Colcannon. I did it with some goose fat lurking at the back of the fridge. Two eggs. All gone, none left <burp>.
Gosh what exciting fridges we have with halloumi, hoummus and starter yeast stuff. v1 also lasted 6 years for me Cinders, clearly that's when they need an upgrade. You clearly had a long lasting model Muttley.
Beebs, oh I understand, I'm originally a Wiltshire girl and I think a Thai takeaway is still about a decade away.
I loooooove squeaky cheese! I thought I was the only one that called it squeaky (I miss the 'teeth' off though). It's my favourite thing to have at a bbq.
Today I have mostly been sniffling. And coughing. And sneezing
I feel humdrum all over.
Morning
*sprays Nykie with anti bac* Hope you feel better soon.
Cinders as much as anything it was to get away from the kids and have some grown up time.Katie I'm very close to the Wiltshire border and have been for Thai a few times in Bath although not recently.
