You could have with a bank card though...We’re having chilli and rice and a baguette I bought yesterday which is hopefully still fresh enough.
I’d bought the bread and butter in Surrey then had a 2 hour drive home. At one point I was working out if I could pull over and butter the bread with my hands. I didn’t.
If it's not too late, you can sprinkle the baguette with water and warm it in the oven. Should reanimate it.We’re having chilli and rice and a baguette I bought yesterday which is hopefully still fresh enough.

It was still really soft so didn’t need it. I ate far more bread than chilli though.If it's not too late, you can sprinkle the baguette with water and warm it in the oven. Should reanimate it.
Hehe yeah, sorry if I’m spelling it wrong! What is it, beanaise? I’m clueless..!Sorry, can't see/hear bearnaise sauce without thinking "Slightly unusual taste, this sauce bearnaise."

Ah yeah.. I don’t know blackadder well. Have seen some of it.Oh no, your spelling is fine!
It is a scene from Blackadder Goes Forth - in case you are unfamiliar with it, that particular scene is about cooking in the trenches in WWI where Baldrick serves up a meal and General Melchett (pictured) questions the flavour of the bearnaise sauce (the upshot being that it is made from some unsavoury substitute ingredients)

Would be good to be able to make my own bea sauce, it’s such a great flavour, but doesn’t it have weird and wonderful stuff in it - tarragon and something else hard to obtain? Maybe I should take baldrick’s lead and find some substitutes!
Tarragon and chervil I think - can't say how difficult either are for you to get or suggest where to get them because iirc you are not in the UK - chervil is sort of like a mild and slightly more aniseedy flavour version of parsley - I find the latter a bit of a bastard to get hold of myself because not every supermarket does it.
Do not use any substitutes suggested in Blackadder
Turnip would be a good substitute.Would be good to be able to make my own bea sauce, it’s such a great flavour, but doesn’t it have weird and wonderful stuff in it - tarragon and something else hard to obtain? Maybe I should take baldrick’s lead and find some substitutes!
