She went for a walk in Norris Green Park with her mum the other day (I know it's Norris Green but the park is gorgeous and properly looked after) and came back with a bag full of blackberries she picked. We had apples in so she got some short-crust pastry and I made vegan apple & blackberry pies for us. Whisked some soy milk, lemonade, vegan butter, caster sugar and flour into a sort of custard. Chopped the apples and put them in with the blackberries and cooked for about 10 minutes. Then spooned out and pastry over, 15 minutes in the oven. Absolutely spectacular. Thats her one, yes I did attempt to write I love you on it because it's nice to be nice sometimes.

Whats the point in baking a pie if you aren't going to fuck it?

Anyone had a meat pack from the fat butcher, he’s constantly advertising on faceaids?

Just had one of Sainsbury's smoked haddock en croute with cheddar cheese and spinach sauce. A side of home made veggie soup to offset the richness, and I'm in heaven.

 

Goes straight into my top ten lunches of all time.

Can’t believe alphabetti spaghetti on toast has finally been nudged from the Hall of Fame. End of an era.

I'll have you know I now eat proper adult stuff, like bran for breakfast. BRAN!

Incredible. You can't even have a snack without having to be able to make big wordsmithy words out of it.

I’m smoking a brisket today.  Just lighting the bbq now, should be ready about 5pm.

Had a couple eggplants (aubergine) and some ground beef lying around, so made Moussaka last night.

 

Turned out really good, but the logistics were a bit overwhelming.

 

Traditional Greek Moussaka recipe (Moussaka with Béchamel) - My Greek Dish

 

Harder than making lasagna, and I've only done that once as well.

 

edit: added potato to the base as recommended, and some zucchini (courgette) to the top layer with the eggplant

Repped for translating American into English but you should have just used the proper words in the first place

Aren't a lot of these foreign foods just like our foods, but with fancy names? That coxinha is just a glorified croquette.

Seeing as one third of our language, especially food, is derived from French a significant amount will be yeah.

Eggplant is also the Australian name for them. Anyone calling them aubergines is immediately identified as a pretentious wanker.

Neko's just being a proper Canadian and naming everything in English and French.
