It is indeed. Cold pizza is just so different to hot fresh pizza, yet enjoyable just as much! How can two such different meals come out of the same meal? 'Tis wonderous.
I had fishcake and chips for lunch whilst helping my budding move house! The others had fish and chips. The fools.

Chinese food. Well, when I say chinese food, I mean chicken fried rice and curry sauce from the local, and very pleasant, Chinese takeway. So not Chinese food to Chinese people, but I love it.

I get those often in my fortnightly box. The Olives variants they do are also pretty awesome.

Marmite opinions people? I love the stuff. I had an idea for a Dairylea style dunker but with Marmite and Twiglets. How incredible would that be?

I misread that initially as Marmite Onions! Over the past few months I seem to have developed a taste for Peperami. When I was a kid I tried one and couldn't stand it but now, 25 years later I have suddenly decided that I like them! Not a week goes by without me purchasing at least one Peperami in any of its various flavours. |

My freshly bought BBQ sauce exploded this morning so I ventured out in search of replacement. Budweiser BBQ sauce was marked down and cheaper than my usual brand so I gave it a go. Had it over some Quorn burgers for dinner and it was a taste sensation!

I saw that the other day when I was on Sandwich duty. Theres also a Jam Sandwich.
The Crisps come in a seperate plastic bag, so all you really have is 1 slice of buttered bread and a10g bag of crisps. Conceptually amazing, but really just bring the buttered bread with you to work and buy the crisps in whatever flavour you want.

Heard an interesting radio programme today all about venison. Some of the points made: - Deer need to be culled to keep the population at a sustainable level. - Shooting an unsuspecting wild deer in the head with a rifle when it is grazing in a field is a nicer way to go than the way cattle are transported to abbatoirs. - Five years ago, approx. 90% of British deer meat was exported. - Now, approx. 90% of British deer meat is eaten in Britain. - Deer farmers consider Walt Disney to be 'The Enemy' because of the way Bambi has made some people reluctant to eat venison, when actually it's more ethical and healthy than other red meats. I first tried venison when I saw it on a menu in the Lake District a few years ago. Since then, I've bought it whenever I've seen it - either in steak or burger form - whether at food festivals or in Sainsbury's. It's delicious! I hope the take-up continues to grow. Martin |

Try something a little more authentic - there's a lovely Spanish sausage called Choritzo (pronounced chore-wreath-o) |

As I saw the sausages thread I wondered what sort of thoughts or if you lot can cook nice, hearty grub? I can, ;D so thought I'd start this off....
I made a nice Sri Lankan Mutton Chop Curry tonight with Macaroni...it consists of:
Large potatoes skinned and chopped into pieces, 2-4 small chillis, chopped, 2-5 garlic, chopped, 1 onion - chopped, tsp of Tumeric, 1/4 tsp of mixed chilli powder, 1/4 tsp of ground pepper, 8 or 9 Mutton chops from local Halal Butchers, all mixed together and fried off together in some olive oil and a tin of coconut milk added in, cooked over a medium heat with lid on for about an hr until meat is well cooked and tats nice and soft......you can eat it with Basmati rice or even Cous Cous but I prefer Macaroni....again, chop and fry an onion in oil, chop up some smoked Danish Bacon and add in, then add a few dollops of tomato puree and mix until onions and bacon are cooked and then add in some pre-cooked macaroni...mix, well into the bacon/onion/puree until the macaroni has become reddish...then serve on a plate with as much curry as you can eat....
YUM!!!
This is a mild one, Sri Lankan's do make a really hot curry, not for the faint of heart but when you become accustomed to chilli and spice as I have growing up in an Asian household you do come to love it....You can also replace the Mutton with Lamb or chicken, chicken on the bone adds more flavour though as does Mutton...
So, what about you lot? And isn't it nice to feel stuffed on a coldish night and then smoke a fag and have a cuppa tea?!

As I saw the sausages thread I wondered what sort of thoughts or if you lot can cook nice, hearty grub? I can There's a distinction between 'can' and 'do'. I only have myself to cater for, which makes me too lazy for time-consuming cookery most of the time. Only occasionally do I get the urge to spend time in the kitchen rather than in another room or outside. But you never know, my schedule is fairly empty this weekend... I usually find I can get a nice hearty meal just by sticking meat and vegetables in a baking tin in the oven and boiling a kettle for some Bisto gravy. Re: curries, love 'em. Spent six years lodging with an Indian family when I was a student, and got tons of free homemade Indian food (all vegetarian). I can take the hot stuff just fine. Martin |

I can cook. But I live with Liz, who's much better at it and less likely to drop the food while making it/taking it out the oven.
Martin: swine. Home cooked Indian is the business. When the church catered for us the few weeks after Jonathan was born, the curry we had from an Indian lady was one of the best meals we had.

I live alone meself so just tried cooking over the years and found like my Mum and Dad I was good at it. I also feel its nice to cook home made stuff as its cheaper in the long run and ready made meals and junk food do loose their lustre after continual ingestive sessions....I like making enough for technically 4 - 6 people that way it lasts a few days but then I vary what I eat on other days as well with chips, SAUSAGES, other grub etc and a spot of junk food or pre-made supermarket stuff as then it feels like a lazy treat now and again...Home made stuff also reminds me of me late Ma and it does impress women, but thats when I rarely luck out and pull that is....
Speaking of women, so Martin has a Liz and theres also a Piglet - why'd she get that name if I may ask sir?
