Looks excellent grub.
I will update you on some nice bottles of Italiano Vino my friend bought over with him from Piedmont all carefully selected and top quality. I have not opened any yet but I will let you know as I work through them.

Big pot of homemade beans. All sorts of stuff in there. Plans for those with some sausages later in the week.
Probably never going to look good but they really do taste good.

Now you see, I love that... Nice and rustic. No doubt that they taste fab. All that's missing is one of your superb home-made crusty loaves, and a big glass of Malbec!

Lots of great grub on here over the Easter break gang!

A mainly digital setup with a musical amplifier and endearing 1970's speakers. A CD player that hardly ever gets used and a turntable that is good enough to remind my how enjoyable my old vinyl is. Some cables and things.

And after the beans just simple fish for supper.
Note eye of fish obscured by lemon for the squeamish.

Love the inclusion of Drambuie... It demonstrates both a touch of class and an ability for lateral thinking
