(though it's a little bit salty because I slipped while measuring it...).
Shouldn't that affect the rising properties of the yeast, hh? Too much salt tends to kill it before it can do its job properly. Doesn't seem to have done anything of the sort. It's quite nice actually. |

(though it's a little bit salty because I slipped while measuring it...). Easily done, hh. [Oh, the picture has vanished. Grrr. That's the end of that then. But just to let you know that prior to that it was the funniest post there has ever been on this MB. You'll just have to imagine it.] |

Well tonight was reheated pasta from the other night. Still very nice but my appetite's been playing up today. It's felt like I'm hungry, I commence nomming and suddenly it feels like my stomach has contracted. Never mind.
Baked some scones tonight.
Nomness.

Supper tonight - A couple of chubby not-so-little sardines (they're probably pilchards) grilled and served with salad containing a healthy dollop of black olives, cherry tomatoes and torn basil leaves. Well, it would have been if I hadn't have dropped one of the sardines on the floor during the journey from grill to plate  Still, there's the other intact little fishy. I was eating early tonight because due to feelings of serious hunger. Typical!  |

Sounds a healthy meal Mort sardines, plenty of Omega-3, a little heavy on the cholesterol and salt re the olives though doncha think? Chez Ants, strictly comfort food. Having been served Notice by the Council on my wildlife garden encroaching on the highway just spoken to my tree people. I get the quote tomorrow  So it is ham, eggs and chips. So there! Tomorrow will be healthy but tonight I will sin. |

Cripes Ants, it was only six teeny weeny olives. <rushes off to check cholesterol levels> I never understood why olive oil is good, olives are bad? But then they said eggs were bad, now they are good! I think, whatever your body tells you to eat then go with it. I am sure that is right, whether for nutritional or emotional reasons what you crave is right for you. Who can deny the emotional comfort of cauliflower or macaroni cheese or risotto? If you are strung out a cold salad of mozzarella and basil with a drizzle of balsamic ain't going to hit the spot is it? A dish of mashed buttery potatoes are not to be beaten when affairs of the heart encroach. Ah, interesting. What are members' comfort foods? |

Fish pie. I know you don't mean that Martle, but believe me, in the right Welsh hands you would be singing Aberystwyth whilst downing a bucket of Pelicans and a quart of Rev. James! |
