Breadcrumbs from Tesco/Lotus's work well with that fish, Mendip.

THERES AREADY MADE JAPANESE PRODUCT CALLED SOMETHING LIKE BANKO WANKO OR YANKO

Next Friday invited for a treat, nexto Lipp,, thank buddha the minted are picking up the tab

tonight, it was grits

^ I would kill to get some grits.

^ In the UK we use grit for the roads when it gets icy?

Anyway, a much as I'm nervous about getting too verbose in this this thread, nothing more says, 'when Das Kommandant is away, the family will play'.



I'm loathe to say that Das Kommandant spoils the fun for the entire rest of the family, but that's pretty much how it is!



No chips tonight,; a beef soup/broth/stew. Despite many discussions on this thread I still don't know the difference, I just don't seem to retain that information.



I absolutely love the contrast of the green peas against the orange carrots. Back in the 80s I had a green and orange striped shirt that was well cool and I'm sure many still remember. A great colour combination. Imho blah blah... of course...

Red and green should never be seen, except with a colour in between.

Did you learn that in kindergarten?
Love a bit of colour...

Mountain of Chinese ribs..

Mrs said if I ever cook that shit again I have to clean the pot myself.

I always thought that was 'blue and green'?

But either way, orange and green is just perfect.

After enjoying some Margaritas a bit earlier. Time to fire up the grill



Ribeye on the grill



Dinner as served. Ribeye, Tater with butter, sour cream with fresh cooked bacon bits and Italian spiced little corn from the market.

Wife came back with these and is determined to cook them even though neither of us have cooked beef in our lives.

Do I just stick some Lee & Perrin's on it?

Sit for 1 hour.

S+P
Brush with olive oil.
Into a searing skillet for 1 minute.

I can't sit for an hour I've got to go to Villa for the oven chips.

Re the toe: yeah, it's been public knowledge for years I'm a goth.

But doesn't explain Armstrong's black toenail. Did he stub it? Does he paint his toenails black?
