Re: What's on the menu?
 

The latter! ;)

Re: What's on the menu?

Egg,chips and beans ;)

Cheap skate....I thought you might be into jellied eels or pie and mash? :)

Re: What's on the menu?
 

I don't know about the food ... egg yolks are too high on the cholesterol scale for me: five and a half hours under the knife stimulates one to read labels .... however, the hooch sounds great .... and what particular kind of firewater would that be; is there a brand I should be looking for? My hangover has gone; there is hockey on tv, joints in the humidor, and the El Cabo is still open:mosher:

And I have a couple of Montecristo cigars .... I've come a long way from sharing a woodbine in the bogs at Accy Grammar:theband:

If you go looking for pisco, Eric, make sure it's Peruvian pisco, not Chilean (or so Mrs H says, but she would say that). It's made from distilled grapes and it's strong. The brand I was drinking last night is called, appropriately enough, "La Diablada". Must go and get a black coffee now...my head hurts.

Re: What's on the menu?
 

we had Ham Shank and Peas the other night but I never do dumplings with it.... Might try that next time,

Tonights is an easy tea, Fray Bentos pies with chips and peas.

Re: What's on the menu?
 

"La Diablada" .... got it .... so your head hurts, eh. Stay away from the egg yolks ... they'll do it every time;)

Re: What's on the menu?
 

Always had dumplings with it, ever since I was little.
I now put a finely chopped onion in with it and a handful of pearl barley.

Broth tomorrow, just another excuse to have dumplings, lol. :D

Today i had just a sausage roll, tomorrow my daughter is making me and her dad Lemony prawn bruschettas for starters and pepperoni pasta for our main meal:D, she practicing her cookery for school on us lol, cant wait to eat those big fat juicey prawns,,, yummy!!

Re: What's on the menu?
 

Nothing interesting for me Magily to make your mouth water.

Had a cheese and onion flan, curly fries (chips shaped into a screwlike shape .. luv 'em) with salad ... unfortunately, I had knocked my fridge temperature by mistake up to 4 .. (on a scale of 1 > 4) so cucumber, radishes and some peppers had turned to mush .. LOL. Still had enough left though.

Not into desserts, 'cept perhaps one night a week, and treat myself to a cream eclair (I bet you can't get any double cream like over here). That Cookie Dough ice cream looked tempting though that I buy for my Grandaughter.

Re: What's on the menu?
 

You are right about the cream.
It has been oddly fascinating reading what everyone has been eating. I think a lot of the food has become much more "American", I remember when I first came here, my family were thrilled to taste frozen yoghurt, blueberry muffins and their favourite waffles.
Now you can get so much more over there, although this is for Eric I am sure he will agree nothing beats Tim Hortons over here.
