The only true time I had food poisoning was in Sarlat, in the Dordogne, and believe me, despite prayers La Vierge did not step in, and conferring avec les Francaise it would appear that Dubonnet would cure it. They lied.
I was there for 3 weeks and never so glad to get back! It was the first time (sorry folks) that I have experienced projectile vomiting.
Well, there's a conversation stopper.

There's a coincidence, mine was last Tuesday.  (see, it wasn't a conversation stopper after all  ) |

Hmm. I wonder if this is the right thread for comparing projectile vomiting.....  Anyway, I'm doing the boys a sirloin steak each for tea with chips and veg and I'm having macaroni cheese. NOMMM |

I'm having macaroni cheese too!
It's been a long day (or at least it feels like it!).
If there had been someone to cook dinner for me, that would have been even better, but beggars choosers cannot be.
Just hope I've got enough cheese.

6 feet, c. 1988. Any advances? Kidding, just kidding! Back to cheese. |

I would have invited you to share mine, but as I didn't get any myself.....  Those boys can eat! They had steak, chips, veg and macaroni cheese. I made it with Red Leicester so it would be nice and tangy. They said it was.  |

Perhaps this should be on the Spooky thread.

My kids are into Chinese Leaf salad. Preparing it tonight was fun as I used my brand new salad spinner - like one of those singing tops we had as children which spin when you press the knob in the centre down. Except it didn't sing. Which was slightly disappointing. Should I have posted this on the What's Spinning? thread? Oops I mean Now Spinning!  |

Compared to all the other things you could envy (wealth, good looks, popularity, contentment, sex appeal, personal holiness, talent) a salad spinner strikes me as rather low down the list. Perhaps it was an exceptionally sexy, expensive, satisfying, stylish or holy salad spinner.

Ah but did you use Red Leicester? No, mature cheddar. I've never tried it with Red Leicester - perhaps I will. They didn't eat all your macaroni cheese, did they, Milly? What did you eat then? |
