Dinner tonight - or last night.

Well, dadpad has one.

Oh, right.
I'll just go out & check.



Yep, you're right. A brick cottage with a metal roof. Very cool in summer because of the high (Victorian) ceilings. I recommend it!


So what did you have for dinner, then, Gus?

OK, I know that'll work, MsO. Thanks.

A pleasure, osso.

Added suggestion for the Asian soup, osso.

That recipe is intended for 4 people. OK, enough serves for 3 hungry people or 2 starving ones! A single person household can't possibly get through it in a hurry. Certainly not at one meal, obviously!

So what I did last time was treat the noodles & the stock separately for each (single person) meal. I cooked enough noodles for one meal, put them (warm) in the bottom of a deep bowl & poured the heated stock over the top. Otherwise (following the recipe quantities & directions) the noodles would be soggy mush before your second or third helping, a day or so later. It worked just as well this way.

Tonight's dinner is likely to be a sandwich, or something that involves absolutely no effort. I've been working at my computer all day & suspect I may have brain damage! Heck, I haven't even washed last night's dishes yet!

Last night I had dinner over a friends. I'm not sure what it was but it was some sort of meat in an unbeatable creme sauce and was delicious. I probably don't want to know.

My potato and leek soup morphed into potato, leek and mushroom soup with the mushroom taking ceter stage. It was very good, though.

I had a Meatball Marinara sandwich from Subway yesterday. OMG it was delicious.

You wouldn't have a recipe for that, Swimpy? :wink:

I just had a (bought) kebab for (early) dinner just now.
I'm tired. No way am I going to create a sink full of dishes to wash tonight!

I had roasted pig tails last night.

Yum.

PIG TAILS??? That's a delicacy I have not savored.


Last night I was at a function and enjoyed the roast goat.

ehBeth, are you being serious? Pigtails? What do you mean?

Today I have eaten a tuna mayonnaise barmcake, a chicken mayonnaise barmcake, a lemon bun, a steak pie, a Mcdonalds chicken sandwich with fries and loads of chocolate and now I think I'm going to be sick.

i believe ehbeth had planned on a pig roast , but the pig started to run away and all she was left with was the tail .
if you see a pig sans tail , would you please have it delivered to ehbeth's abode ?

we can buy fresh pigtails at the local A & P store .
haven't had pigtails for many years , but i can attest that they are good tasting .
we buy fresh oxtails on occasion , but they have become rather expensive .

Are the pigs tails still all curly when they are cooked?

The pigtails were fairly straight.

I can understand why they're considered a delicacy at Mennonite BBQ's. Crispy and yummy.

i don't believe the pig tails are "curly' when cooked - they are already "uncurled" when they are being sold .
(i understand they employ an "uncurler" at the local A &P for that).

Hmmm. I'm a bit hungry again now. I think I want to try pigs tails.
