Much nicer than the pic of your last meal matey, which (sorry) looked like dog food :o... But it's hard making beef olives look sexy. I'm sure that they tasted good, though! :)
Btw, do you ever eat veg? You know, stuff like green beans, broccoli, carrots, cauliflower, etc? Never seen any of that stuff on your plate, just spuds! ;)

im not a rabbit ;) yes sometimes.. toms, peppers, carrots, peas, beans, green beans. no broccoli, cauli, cabbage etc. the skirlie may not look sexy but its very nice
Lol@rabbit! Well, I love salads (done well). Had a lovely Caesar salad for lunch today at my dad's, based on what was shown on Rick Stein's programme last night in Mexico. And salads are very good for you!
I also love fresh veg, cooked properly, and so unless I'm having something like pasta, or some form of Asian food (curry, etc), there'll always be some fresh veg on my plate :)
Marco.
Where are the photos? Or does that only apply to "OK What's for Tea Today?" :DQuote:

Lol - the salad was eaten at my dad's house, so I wasn't pulling out a camera there... Love salads of all descriptions, *BUT*, they need to be properly dressed, either with a nice (preferably homemade) vinaigrette, or some quality olive oil and red or white wine vinegar, or balsamic, and seasoned with ground rock salt and pepper.
It's only in the UK that you're served boring 'dry salads' (lettuce, tomato and cucumber just plonked onto a plate, etc), which in some cases can be rather hard to digest! :spew:
Anyway, just concern yourself with taking pics of your own food, as I've seen hee-haw evidence of it so far. You could've been making it up for all we know! :D;)
In future, pics or it didn't happen.... :ner:
Marco.
No pics from me then - I just can't be bothered with the vanity. They won't tell you how delicious the meal tasted, which after all, is more important than the presentation.
Lol - how is it vanity? So then, by the same token, are the authors of all the Gallery threads here, showing pics of their lovely systems, vain? And are they just doing it to 'show off'? I don't think so!
It's simply about illustrating something you're interested in and passionate about, for the enjoyment of others who are likeminded. And a picture of your food (on a food thread) does just that, as do umpteen ones of your hi-fi system (on a hi-fi thread)! ;)
You should 'fess up, Barry... The *real* reason for your reluctance to post pics is because you're not really au fait with the process of using digital cameras, etc, (somewhat of a technophobe) - and probably need to get Happy to do it for you! :ner:
Hence why you rarely post your own pictures of ANYTHING here...... Only images of stuff you've plucked from Google. These things don't go unnoticed, you know! :eyebrows:

Steak & kidney pie with baked potato and some form of other veg, not decided which yet ;)
