When would an 'improptu' meet up not be 'surprisinng'?

Yesterday I made up a delicious beef and vegetable winter soup for dinner.



The daughter did in fact ask me if I thought winter soup was 'appropriate' when it was 30 degrees outside. She seems to be struggling with the heat of Korat after becoming acclimatised to the relative cool of Pak Chong... with unlimited school air con.

I told her that no-one likes a moaner.



But I was secretly impressed with her vocabulary. Since her first half term away I have also caught her listening to the Rolling Stones, Fleetwood Mac and Blondie on my Spotify. Despite now wearing elephant pants, I think that she does have some hope.

AC… it’s like magic. Tell her welcome to 2025

^^ Nice, although i'd add beans and more onion and herbs

She'll be putting the AC on at home soon!

Down to earth Scouser and a surprisingly impromptu meet up.

Is he the boxer that was imprisoned in Thailand and gained early release through muay thai ? Would of been an even more interesting lunch if you had of bumped into Charlie Veitch as well.

Yeah that's him, he does a lot of work with the homeless now.

Charlie Vietch can't come into the city without an army of bodyguards now, such is the migrant and homelessness problem. Every street corner yesterday had druggies and gangs of boat people.
Sad times.

She is not going to want to go home with his draconian rules about the AC. Why would she when she can just stay on campus?

^ Well, sorry for trying to reduce my energy bill to help save the planet.

Anyway, there's nothing draconian about my 40 degree rule.

Can't you just poop all over the place without insulting member's children?


In the kitchen subforum, of all places. God forbid Looper posts photos of his BBQ in the BBQ thread.

Worse things happen at sea, or big C just a storm in a dandelion teacup cheddo. Chill dude. Whoa,easy big fella. Why so hostile? Sheesh

Nice meatballs PAG

Nice Thai stew Mendy

^ Thanks!

Although to be fair there wasn't much Thai about it, apart from the location.


Which brings me nicely to tonight's offering... a Thai salmon quiche!

Whenever I make up pies these days I do bulk pastry production and blind bake shortcrust pastry into pie tins to freeze, for emergencies.

During tonight's emergency I prepared a salmon quiche in less than half an hour, stuck it in the convection oven and then enjoyed a Singha with the dogs while it baked.



It was a bit sloppy but better than too dry, I always say.



It's great to eat with company again!



I would say that overall I prefer a bacon quiche but you have to mix things up on occasion.

Delicious. If a little hoppy

Err...yes. I think that would be called a stew...

Perhaps tuna slops?
