What's for tea tonight? (pt6)

[Y_I_Otter]

I'm in farm harvest hell. Food, for the next several weeks or so, will consist of whatever I can coax out of the freezer, pop into the oven and dump onto covered plates that get taken out to the field to indifferent nephs and partner-- stuff eaten while I run a tractor to get a few steps ahead of the crew who's shovelling it in. Last night I was doing laundry at 1 AM and contemplating a complicated murder/suicide scenario that could easily be written off as the last desperate attempt of an over-wrought man to bring order to the Universe.

In the meantime, I passed a lovely cluster of ripe morels at the edge of our bush lot today that were just itching to be hung and dried for some winter extravagance. Due to time constraints, they'll rot.

Pray for me.

That's rough.

Last night's lamb burgers were so nice I'm having them again.

Some funny shaped pasta with courgettes, bit of chorizo and cheese

[ScallyWag II]

I'm gonna have chicken breasts instead of the cheese omelette. FYI

 

[mrsfran]

Just a local Italian. No reason, he is just a nice man I will probably have seafood of some description.

no duh, I meant what for as is what you're gonna eat

nom - seafood of some description - my fave

 

[mrsfran]

Well, if you will be AMBIGUOUS.

I might not have seafood though. It is the middle of summer, not exactly seafood season.

 

[Cheesypoof]

Well, if you will be AMBIGUOUS..

lol.

[sojourner]

Well, if you will be AMBIGUOUS.

Ambiguous my arse - not my fault if you don't get my working-class-speak

 

[mrsfran]

(((Sojourner's ambiguous arse)))

 

[feyr]

fried eggs, and potato waffles

 

[rennie]

Pub grub (and lots of red wine).

 

[hiccup]

A steak, stilton, fried onion and cherry tomato sandwich. And a bottle of Peroni. The ribeye steak was reduced from £8 to £2 in co-op. It was all bloody lovely

 

[Y_I_Otter]

The minions hacked away at a top-of-the-stove roast of pork, apple sauce, rice & peas, tarragon carrots and green salad today. I had the dregs of Enid's bean soup, bread and a g&t (which was a suppertime hit around here for two days running, btw-- the soup, not the g&t )

Tomorrow-- Friday-- it'll be back to some thawed thing from the freezer; vegetarian lasagna, likely as not. I'm off to defrost it right now, on the way to well-earned six hours of sleep.

 

[derf]

Nasi gila.

That's crazy rice in English. Two or three way to do it but my favorite is fried rice but spicy enough to launch the shuttle with a bit of chicken.

 

[Detroit City]

I picked up some Jr. Cheeseburger Deluxes and some Chix Nuggets with ranch sauce from Wendys....should be eating in a bit here.

nom nom nom

 

[CharlieAddict]

i'm cooking for the partner's grandad tonight.
he expects a traditional hakka course! and it can't be salty cos of his heart.
i'm stuck!

 

[mrsfran]

Got some chicken thighs out of the freezer, so it's them with peppercorn sauce. Pluce rice and veg.

BaddummTISH!

I was gonna make a pea and potato curry, but am in Macc today doing viewings, so might not feel like dedicating some time to it

Soooo, it's a-gonna be roasted peps/onions/garlic/mushrooms with pesto pasta and a good glug or 3 of some chilean cab sauv dahhlinks

 

[Voley]

ambiguarse

Make a good tagline.

I'm having something pasta based, with chicken in it, along with a decent drop of red. All this talk of steaks is making me wonder whether I shouldn't head out and buy meat and beer, though.

 

[Voley]

Meat and beer it is.

 

[ScallyWag II]

Salmon and noodles

 

[snackhead]

Just off to butchers for some lamb maybe then will get something cakey from bakers and nose around the deli.

 

[snackhead]

Back with lamb chops, spinach/feta flatbread, beetroot, lentil and carrot salads. Gingerbread men and iced sponge squares from bakers.
