What are you eating and drinking tonight?

[Lord Kangana]

Sugar (in the form of icing or meringue) sweats, and quite visibly too, at cold temepratures. You'd be amazed how many chefs don't even know this. Try it. Put a meringue in the fridge. If you leave it long enough it will go from crispy to liquid (I would say about 5 days total turnaround).

Ahhh, you learn a new thing every day! Shall remember that!

[Wandering Willy]

If they're proper marshmallows they might melt if she fridges them btw.

If I was a pedant.....

[Lord Kangana]

You wouldn't dare.

Hungry after postponing eating until after poetry reading... Swerved into sainsbury, bought ready made spag bol - 4 mins in the microwave and chianti riserva on 'half price' offer...

Chianti was fine...

'Food' hit the bin shortly after second mouthful...

Pasta and tomato sauce is usually so good.

[Worthy4England]

Beef and Tomato Pot Noodle. Delish with a lump of Roquefort in it.

[Gooner Girl]

just had 2 pieces of eggy bread, a cookie and a packet of hula hoops but am still hungry... time to break out the chocolate i feel...

[William the White]

Pasta, sardines (from the market, today) with onions, garlic, pine nuts, raisins - a Jamie recipe.

Can't make up my mind between Chianti or Pinot Grigio. Having a fino sherry, nicely chilled, as aperitif at this moment.

Roquefort - following the health tip of LK - some people will believe anything they want to hear Also from the market - that brilliant cheese stall that has about six versions of Lancashire in massive wheels and great continental selection. i sometimes linger there just to drool.

TFIF!

[Armchair Wanderer]

Had a fancy brunch at the local art gallery.

Leftovers tonight... cold veggies in pittas and finishing yesterday's merlot ...as a self-punishment / fast to bring the trotters luck tomorrow.*

I've been busy in the kitchen tonight. Made some cakes this morning and with a little help from my mum and a friend, iced them tonight. They're for the twins first birthday on saturday!

Hadn't twigged. Same day as my son... Guess who's not going to Wiggin today. Might be a blessing...

'tis my daughters birthday today too; she's six. We're having a rockstar fairy princess party. Not really sure what that is but I do know it'll be pink, involve singing and be fantastic.
Happy birthday to your two.

'Food' hit the bin shortly after second mouthful...

I really should know better... Ready meals are simply unspeakably shite, shite, shite!

Did mushrooms on toast... Much better...

How utterly fecking ridiculous of you. Sorry, Will, but what fibre of you ever thought that pre-prepared spag bol would ever be edible? You could've knocked up a wonderful Whore's Pasta in the same time that you microwaved that rubbish. Dear me!

Absolutely - no excuses...

[thebish]

thebish patent syrup sponge pudding....

[Lord Kangana]

It looks like one of those eggs the alien comes out of about to open.

Did it?

aye - it did!

[Bruce Rioja]

Points off if that's not the dog's spare bowl, Bisho.

rustic earthenware, Bruce - none of this sparkly gleaming stainless steel space-age non-stick-coated utensil malarky that LK would use....

(I think there's a tagine version for William )

[Lord Kangana]

Actually food sticks to stainless steel like shit to a blanket.

Metals of choice (in descending order) are copper, black iron and aluminium. Its to do with heat conductivity, by the way.
