Splendid, first class, excellent - Love it to bits.

I came home from work yesterday evening and as I walked through the door, I could smell the lovely roast dinner being prepared. The aroma was gorgeous and my belly began to rumble.

"What's cooking?" I asked.

"Lamb shanks," replied my wife, who is a vegetarian.

"Oh wow! One of my favs," I replied. It's a standard joke. Whatever she cooks, I always reply, "Oh wow! That's one of my favs."

Carole always replies, "Food, in general, is one of your favs."

As the plate was put on the table, I decided to take a quick snap so all you lovely peeps could see the prize awaiting my devoted attention. I, of course, managed to rise to the occasion. My performance in doing justice to this dinner was; splendid, first class, excellent.

In short, I Love it to bits. 

A Pirate's Dinner

A Pirate's Dinner

The Grand children came in and looked at the curried vegtables with rice. We were not expecting them and they usually like kiddie things.

Jokingly, I said, "That's what pirates have for dinner,"

"Do they," said the pair of them. They like pirates.

"Oh yeah," I replied. "They love this sort of thing."

They decided to have some with rice and ate the lot. :D

Have You Ever Tried Soft Chili Cheese on Baked Mushrooms?

At the risk of sounding a bit like Sam I Am, I would like to ask if anyone has tried soft chilli cheese baked on large mushrooms?

I was feeling a little peckish this afternoon and decided upon raiding the fridge for something to fill a little gap that was developing in my stomach. I had bought four large mushrooms and picked up some soft Bavarian cheese earlier in the day while out and about in the village.

I took two of the large mushrooms and baked them in the oven with sliced Bavarian chilli soft cheese on the top. Once baked I looked down at the succulent little beauties and my mouth began to water. I sprinkled some white pepper over them and was about to dig in when I thought, "stop!"

I decided to take a snapshot and let everyone else see how yummy they looked. I have to say they were as delicious as they appear. In fact, they were gorgeous. Therefore, when next in the supermarket go for a pack of large mushrooms, a soft cheese with some chilli or chives or some other add-in. 

Not a bad little delight.
