dinner this evening - what's on your menu?

[ethandron]

for us it's delia smiths chicken basque, cheesy tear and share bread and a bottle of luscious waxed bat. been a busy day so it's nice to sit down with a large glass of this lovely wine and enjoy the fact that dinner is slowly simmering away in the oven.

"Delia Smith's Chicken Basque" made me think twice - anyone else envisage a corset made of poultry?

[cazzz1975]

[Purple_Popple]

BTW what on earth is a 'waxed bat' ???? Do bats make tasty eating for dinner then ?

[ethandron]

some delicious dinners had last night then :o)
the waxed bat is an argentinian red wine - shiraz petit verdot malbec, to quote the label. it's 14% volume so only managed two thirds of the bottle, have the last third waiting for me for this evening.

[Dris]

Last third....of a bottle of wine...left....gasp !!!! ;)
(im impressed )

[ethandron]

well dris, when you're only allowing yourself one bottle a week, you have to make it last. wouldn't have happened prior to 4th jan when the diet started. tell you what, makes you really appreciate it though..
