Tonight

[Vagus]

We are having Gingsters pasties, chunky oven chips, and baked beans. Maybe followed by a slice of cherry pie with custard, depends on how full we both are.
I’m going with the ‘feed a cold, starve a fever’ thing, for himself. He has no raised temperature now, but is on steroids.
I’m going with totally fed up with being stuck indoors since, well, quite a while, for myself, and not sleeping even in another bedroom because of his coughing (I know he can’t help it,poor thing, but I’m sooo tired).
And wine.
And G&T.
And anything with calories which I fancy.

[choux]

Sounds like a plan to me :)

I am doing a surf and turf stir fry, not too many veg, but all beautifully prepped! Bon appetit! Have you got earplugs?

[Vagus]

Can I come round choux, I’ll bring wine and anything else you fancy? Surf and turf stir fry sounds very nice, what’s on it…seawater and sods?

[-SharonA-]

Pesto baked salmon, diced roasted potatoes, green veg selection.

[choux]

It may be raining, yet again, but we are a bit too inland for seawater to be a problem, I hope!

Vagus, you would be very welcome, king prawns, tender chicken breast, mushrooms, asparagus, peeled red pepper, peeled organic celery, lovely fresh spring onions and a little pak choi. Some nice prawn crackers too. OH fancies it, so that is what I am off to cook soon.

[Redhelen72]

Himself is having bangers and mash with roasted onion gravy.
I am having a sausage and baked beans

[Vagus]

Be more specific, Sharon, it sounds very nice..what’s the green veg selection, and how do you do the pesto (what sort?) baked salmon?

[bednobs]

will you have a sauce choux?

[Vagus]

Choux is saucy enough, bednobs ;)

[Zacs-Master]

Shepherds pie (well, it’s actually cottage pie as it’s beef mince but…..). Bit of brown sauce. Cheese on top. Ant wait. Might have 2 portions.

[Zacs-Master]

*can’t wait

[Vagus]

Helen, I’d have baked beans with just about anything, himself is less keen. I love bangers, chips and beans but he prefers the bangers in a baguette. Sometimes I ignore his pleas… ;)

[bednobs]

something with pork mincee - probably dirty rice

[choux]

OH ate so much fish whilst the NHS were caterers I am surprised no dorsal fin protruded through the spine. Might get some salmon for tomorrow though. I have a spare lemon - 3 unwaxed lemons for £1.75! I am not wasting any at that price, lol.

[Vagus]

Shepherds/cottage pie, all the same to me Zacs. I love the stuff and can shovel it in at a great rate if I’m very hungry. Himself has red sauce with his, I just have it au naturelle.

[choux]

No sauce as such, bednobs, but a little light soy, lemon juice and zest and a little fresh ginger. OH not very keen on too much spice and deffo no chilis.

[Vagus]

OMG choux, don’t waste them there lemons!
Trouble with using stuff up, I’ve found, is it costs more to buy things to make things. Worth it I suppose, to avoid food waste, which is my mission this year..and last. I am a goddess in the kitchen.

[Arksided]

I've had such a chesty cough recently (still have it) but can not bring oneself to be peeling the fresh veg in my fridge (I was - have being planning on a sausage casserole) so may settle for a Sausage sarnie.

[Vagus]

Scuse me bednobs, what’s dirty rice? I’ve seen ‘dirty’ in reference to other food stuff too, what does it mean?

[Vagus]

Arky, sausage butty is wonderful when you’re not so good, or even if you’re top notch, enjoy it, I love ‘em. Hope you feel better soon, not nice to feel poorly.

[Zacs-Master]

You don’t want to be peeling veg in your fridge, arky. The kitchen is much better ;-)
