What's for tea tonight? (pt3)

[pootle]

My first stab at tacos last night turned out lush! Meaty, beany, guacamoley, soured cream youmous-ness - there's also something quite satisfing about eating with your fingers.

Tonight is cheats jerk chicken with rice and peas - which I am also having a go at for the first time. I iz well getting back into cooking stuff from scratch again, rather than sticking something on an oven tray

 

[Mogden]

Hooray! Well done that Mogden Quitting is brilliant, especially when you've got something cool lined up.

Thanks May. It's just the start of my cakey dream Now I'm writing my resignation letter today and am pondering whether to make it plain and then spill my guts in my exit interview or put some of it in the letter

 

[mrsfran]

Oh, I am so sorry! And I do still love you!

I think it's DC and his takeaways, they are confusing my mind.


Did you get anything to eat yet missfran? I'm worried now!


Zorra, I have had a think about my behaviour - can I come out of the corner now please?

It's ok, I had some Heinz tomato soup and toast with butter when I got home.

 

[hiccup]

Went out for dinner in the end last night. Had a meze at a local Greek place. There was so much food! From memory:

olives, pickled chillies, other pickles
hoummus
tzatziki

wine sausages
some sort of offal sausage
pork souvlaki
lamb leg steaks
rice
greek salad
moussaka
baklava

spill my guts in my exit interview or put some of it in the letter

Again, well done Moggy, and big congrats

 

[Biddlybee]

And now it's Tuesday I can reveal why

I'm quitting my job here. I told my boss today who has been off on their hols for a few days. They were shocked and I had to show them my job offer letter to convince them I was serious as I've been here for 8 and a half years and am one of the 'old timers'. I'm currently working for an internet bank in Derby as a web editor and am going off to be an assistant manager in a milkshake shop No cooking facilities there at the moment but I hope to get something organised soon so that I can be Mrs Cake and get paid for it and make Mrs Cake's Baked Shakes.

Nice one

Ta missus

After 8 and half years here that interview is gonna take all day! Particularly as I'm leaving best mate Mogden here for a few days before she goes on maternity leave and I wanna get some serious issues straightened out.

I put in my resignation letter "I would like to wish the company the success it deserves in the future"

Not the success it deserves now, then?

It's very much a cheats rice and peas recipe too - shhh! Don't tell tarranau as he posted a couple for me, but they looked a bit complimicated for an amateur like me.

Here's what I'll be trying tonight though - will report back tomoz!

I did cheat and buy them from Sainsburys but I can make my own when I have time.

Have you tried the Quorn ones, they're not bad?

why don't they just call 'em veggieballs? why do they have to throw in the word "meat"?
