She sounds whacky ..... you wouldn't think an Italian would put turkey in a sausage.

I love sausages. When I started to make them the variation and quality of them in the UK started to really take off, so the trouble became pointless.

I've just been checking my preferred UK supermarket delivery supplier and I stopped counting at 100 variations.

My sister in law has often spoken about renting a machine for a weekend and making a few varieties for a bunch of us but that has yet to happen. I have to say that for turkey my friend's grandmother made a damned tasty sausage.

Shouldn't really justify a rental. Basically it's a cheapish hand mincing machine with a spigot for the casings. Great and absorbing.

All I can say is that I'm on a diet and you guys/gals are f*ing killing me.

10 chicken nuggets with bbq sauce from the corner deli and a smart water.

Why am I cheating on my diet with this crap?

Hiccup ;)

Meal: Lunch


Laverstoke Park burgers in wholemeal buns with fried onions and dijon mustard with fries and heinz ketchup. Admiral ale followed by yet another bottle of Rioja. The last bit of the sachertorte I made a few days ago and a splodge of double whipped cream. I wish the torte was easier to make ... as I can't imagine next week without it and know that by Tuesday a twitch will develop that starts another day of messy baking .....:)

Meal: Any

1. Discovered roasted whole garlic cloves at an all-you-can-eat buffet.

2. Made it at home by slicing off top of garlic clove, brushing with olive oil, salt & pepper, cover with tin foil, roast @ 450F for 30 min.

3. As above but skip tin foil & microwave for 90 sec.

Korean BBQ eateries excel in garlic clove giving, though they'd more like do it if the patron is the one doing the BBQing.

This is practically a quotidian snack in my household, usually Granny Smiths w/Adams Natural Chunky. Even when PB prices shot up 50% last winter I stuck to the habit.

Back to topic.

Location: PDX, USA - home
Meal: Breaky/Lunch

Tillamook Medium Cheddar grilled cheese cheese on day old Grand Central Como bread. I make a sort of .......ized pannini using a well-seasoned cast iron griddle and bacon press to speed up the melting process without overcharring the bread.

Evening repast: Karnabeet -- crispy sauteed cauliflower w/tahini sauce; dried pineapple and leftover Halloween candy for dessert.

Meal: Breakfast

Home grown/baked baguette with Tiptree strawberry jam and double expresso!! It may look rustic but I've never perfected using a lame to cut the top before baking. It still tastes the same though .......
