Oh go on.


Muesli - sweeping from the bottom of pet cages.
Wheatabix - that's the cloth option, underwear a possible component.
Shreddies and the like are recycles shoe laces or even just recycles shoes in some cases.

After eating the first hot-buttered toast in decades, I have decided to eat more of what I used to eat a long time ago.

Yesterday it was Crunchy Nut Cornflakes with cold milk.

Today it was a BabyBel.

I have Sugar Puffs ready for tomorrow.

Just been to Ivy Asia Leeds for a meal out with SWMBO - excellent food, outstanding service.

Had the food on the attached menu, washed down by two Asahi Super Dry, finished off by an Asia Vesper Martini* - if you live in the Leeds area, I strongly recommend a visit.

Because I think showing restaurant prices is a bit gauche.

Bank holiday Monday I cooked up some curries for guests:
Karachi chicken - reheated from Saturday (planned)
Beef rendang - reheated from earlier (not planned) - dry curry but I used a penang spice mix
Corn on the cob with spicy onion "gravy"
Paneer, mushroom and paneer curry
Pineapple and coconut curry - cooked Sunday and served at room temperature - probably the favourite of the five.

McChicken sandwich ? Or Chicken Mayo thing off the saver menu? I always remember them tasting differently for some reason.

Handful of chocolate limes, and getting told off for crunching them in the process

Choc limes are one of my favourites. Sadly the wife's too. So a bag has been devoured this evening.

After decades refusing Dutch cheeses, the missus has developed a taste for Gouda. So I bought some Edam (it's still made backwards) but she doesn't like it. So Edam, ham and Adad "Branston" sarnies for me.

I like the Beemster Royaal Grand Cru - really nice and expensive mature Gouda on the deli counter in Waitrose.

If the bread costs extra, eat elsewhere, can't remember who said that but I've claimed it as my own but don't stick to it, was whispering it to the other half in a reasonably fancy restaurant the other week when we left the big smoke and ventured into Essex (Felix, popular with z list non entities on reality tv).

Anyway this week I've mainly been eating;

Speck, nice, spicy taste to it
Gorgonzola, piccante kind, very strong taste
Prosciutto, complimented the speck and gorgonzola well
Burrata, very buttery cheese, like it which is good as there's loads of it due to other cheeses not being in stock
Salami feline, sweet, peppery and delicious
Cannoli (hazelnut cream) Omg such a treat, love 'em with a cuppa

Yes so this week I've been eating like a King thanks to Ms Ntl :tu: thanks again btw

Ah the days when a waiter comes round with a bread basket before your meal and you pick out the roll you want. Then you unwrap that little square of butter that's never enough. Now they charge you £6 for it. :p:

Cheese scones, very triggering for me, last time I had one was in a quaint cafe in Sheringham about 10 years ago, I asked for the cream tea and it came with a cheese scone, marmalade and squirty cream out of a can :erm:
