One advantage (to my mind) of composition, is that every now and then I will come to a point where I need to walk around a bit in order to think over the stage to which I've got. To be honest that is true of very many activities carried out by members of the human species is it not? |

I find it that if I am stressed I can not cook.
I have to calm down to cook. I have to be in good frame of mind.
I love hh recepies too. They sound so delicious, so home made.
It is not to be upset for a long stretches of time or to be sick. One's nerves then are too weak and everything becomes too difficult.
Remember not to feel very bad about anything. It is not healthy.

Simple egg mayonnaise today. Still haven't got around to making my own mayonnaise yet...
I used to, before eggs were full of salmonella, but it doesn't keep so you have to make a small amount and use it quickly. Btw, use a machine it's so much easier than by hand. I've more or less cut bread out of my diet at the moment in a (no doubt vain) attempt to lose some weight. I'm still eating oatcakes though - at the cricket yesterday I had a few Nairn's herby ones (unadorned) with some of my home grown toms - the combination was really yummy.  |

Now that's really flummoxed me, Andy: judging by your posted diet, I'd imagined you to be as thin as a rake.....

Moving right along.  Andy, Nairn's oatcakes are very fine indeed (although not as fine as some highland varieties beknownst to uncle Ron ), but I haven't noticed the herby ones before. I shall keep a lookout. Oatcakes are wondrous things. |

Andy, Nairn's oatcakes are very fine indeed (although not as fine as some highland varieties beknownst to uncle Ron ) Though, to be strictly accurate, they're lowland oatcakes, martle: Goodfellow and Steven is a Dundee firm. Their cheese oatcakes are wondrous: Ron can easily scoff a whole packet in a single sitting, however, being quite serious about regaining his fighting weight, he has foresworn them. There are two packets in this very room as he types, awaiting despatch across the border; and even though the pangs of hunger be gnawing at his vitals, he has resisted them steadfastly. |

We not-so-thin rakes can be very attractive too  What I've omitted to mention on this thread Ron is the Bombay Mix that I love to nibble in the evening - it's 25% vegetable oil  |
