I’m off! Serious test cooking begins. These were delicious. I made them exactly to the recipe apart from being slightly generous with the salt. Served with a big slice of gammon and a mighty dollop of the Temple Big Pan Piccalilli. Mmmmm. Luckily there is some of the mixture left over for breakfast so I’ll have the rest with a fried egg on top. I do so loves my eggs at the weekend.
I’m watching Angels With Dirty Faces. It was a gift from my date last night as in email correspondence I admitted that I’d never seen a Cagney film. That was a nice surprise. It’s good. Ann Sheridan is great. I love those moody birds who don’t react at all when they are being chatted up. I wish I was more like that, instead of being like a grateful puppy, wagging my tail and sticking my tongue out if anyone pays me the slightest attention.
Co-inidentally the next recipe in the selection for the book alphabetically is Ann Sheridan’s Chili Casserole which I am planning to make tomorrow. I’m getting a few under my belt before the year is out…
My date was good. I’m playing things differently this time. My New Year’s wish is for a different kind of man than the ones I’ve been knocking around with lately. I had a lot of fun with Mr Tall Tales Jackson earlier this year but I’d like the next guy I go out with to err on the side of truthfulness. Or at least not claim that their father had a full sized basketball court in their house…
Maybe I’ll meet someone like Alan?
