    Default So who fancies a lamb curry today then?

    I was quite shocked to read that report that a high percentage of lamb curries contain little or no lamb. I reckon most of us knew that already. I once bought a lamb curry that had just four tiny pieces of meat. With the whole container soaked in curry thickened with loads of onions, it is no wonder that it is so hard to tell what's in that muck.

    I can't quite believe it but a Caribbean food place has just opened up literally round the cirner from me. One of my favourite types of food. Just had fried fish with rice and peas for lunch, bloody lovely. This is just unheard of round here it is all pies and currirs. Xdon't know how long it will last but I am going to make the most of it while it does

    They had Jamaican Curried Goat Pies in Pie and Ale in Manchester a couple of weeks ago.

    I went for the Rabbit, Black Pudding, Bacon, Parsnip and Apple Pie though

    Default Recipes for scrumptious and reasonably healthy food

    Ah Bakerie been there a few times. I work quite near it at City Tower on Piccadilly Plaza. Will check out Pie & Ale for main meals rather than bread and wine!

    There are a lot of gourmet "beer 'n burger" joints opening these days hopefully in place of last year's pulled pork overload...

    Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

    Probably not actually but certainly very yummy indeed. We are experimenting with various breads at the mo as we are both gluten intolerant. The only failure has been the rye which is a shame as the few edible bits were delicious. Carry on experimenting

    I wonder why all the wheat free breads take so long to toast too!! Can't try the soda bread as it uses ordinary flour but there you go.
