Can't got to work - so we're eating instead!
Anybody else got into a bit of cooking ???
For breakfast I made drop scones with scrambled egg and smoked bacon, all covered in maple syrup 
The wife has made the most incredible brownies, and I think I'm going for the big one later, suet jam rolly polly baked in the oven. And that
will be washed down with mulled wine.
If it doesn't thaw soon I may not get out the door

...do you actually have taste buds
(also at work, but we've got loads of chocolate )
haven't worked out what I'm cooking tonight yet, but it could be chicken + chorizo risotto, lamb stew, leak + tattie soup, haggis or any
other experimental combination of them (all from scratch of course)
and I've got a home made apple tart or I could make something with the pears/apples etc...
any recipes/suggestions ? (I've got most of the baking stuff you'd ever need)

Are you sure you weren't a dinner lady in a previous life, that all sounds deelish
Here's a link to a recipe, I like the idea of baking it as you get crispy/chewy edges, and it doesn't take hours to steam:

Yes, I had always 'steamed' so I will give the 'roasting' version a go!
A dinner lady in the past? ...well, I suppose so........in a way.. (in the past)...

Its my day off and I'm back in tomorrow but I've been trying to get the cat off a mates car this morning. No cooking for me absolutely
hate it. Even making butties gets on my nerves so a trip to McDonalds for me earlier too and for the above post I dunno if I have taste buds, I only
eat so that I don't die. It's a function just like going to the toilet!

MMMMM double suasage and egg mcmuffins mmmmmm. Had one the other day but couldnt taste it cos of the dreaded man flu.
Day off today to look after me 3 1/2 year old as wifes at work and normal baby sitters are all ill. We made 1/4 pounders with cheese and onions for
dinner and then made corn flake cakes. MMMMMMM
Just trying to decide on chilli or spag bol for tea. Maybe followed up buy jam rolly polly or christmas pud as i have 3 left.
