If so, isn't that like saying "iphone" instead of "phone"
Or "macbook" instead of laptop
Or Beemer "instead of car"

Re: What are you eating and drinking tonight?
Ha, but no, it's different! I can't stand people who talk about their "iphone" or their "macbook" when they just mean phone or laptop. "Oh, can I use your plug socket to charge my iPhone?". No. F*ck off.boltonboris wrote:Assume that's Cheese or something?Prufrock wrote:Ham and Wigmore sandwiches. Amazing.

However, if they're comparing the particular merits of the iPhone versus some other sort, then it's important.
How amazing that sandwich was, was not just due to it being "ham and cheese". It relied on it being ham and this lovely stuff: http://yespleasecheesereview.blogspot.c ... -ewes.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

It beats my "2 stripe cooked ham and Pilgrims choice" then?

Re: What are you eating and drinking tonight?
In my humblest of opinion's, yes, it's a taste sensation.

A fair point well put. No, I've had a glass of it upon returning home from Saturday's match, frozen to the marrow, but the rest is there to go at.Abdoulaye's Twin wrote: How can it be empty with a bottle of Balvennie lurking in your house? Or have you polished it off already?

Rather like a Freedman defence, I'm all over the bloody shop as far as that chart is concerned. I've favourites in each corner and down the middle!

Superb piece of über-pedantry there.

Re: What are you eating and drinking tonight?
Why would you want beef burgers and chicken burgers in the same sandwich? Complete nonsense 

Re: What are you eating and drinking tonight?
The missus is out a few nights in a row - so - rather than pig myself on junk-food for one (as I am often tempted to do when cooking for just me) I have made up a big batch of this slow cooker red bean and sweet potato chili - largely because it had ingredients that i already had so didn't need to go out in the cold to the shop!
anyway - turns out it's pretty fecking awesome! and - this is supposed to make 4 portions - if you divide it into 4 - each portion is only 185 calories - which is double awesome!
it's plenty spicy hot, filling one-pot comfort food! serve with rice or hunks of bread - or - just eat a huge bowlful on its own!
1-2 tbs olive oil
an onion
a red bell pepper
garlic cloves - 1 or 2 - up to you
a tablespoon of chile powder (yes - a tablespoon!)
1.5lbs of sweet potato cut into chunks
a can of chopped tomatoes
a can of kidney beans (drained)
two thirds of a pint of water
salt/seasoning to taste
(I also wanged in a load of kale about ten mins before serving)
I thing it might make a difference to slowly fry the onion in the oil with the garlic and chopped pepper and chili powder in a frying pan - before adding them to the slow cooker - but I have no science to back this up!
anyway - that's what I did - fried the onion slowly with the chili powder and garlic and the chopped pepper then stirred in the chopped sweet potato so it was all well coated...
then - just wang all the ingredients in the slow cooker on the low setting for 6-8hrs.
you'll be thanking me tomorrow!
