13 Oct, 2008

13 Oct, 2008

 

Looks nice and tasty Eileen think he will give me some cooking lessons lol

13 Oct, 2008

 

lol he could give us both lessons janette

13 Oct, 2008

 

TT and Jacque , you will be glad to hear it tasted lovely and aye kinda like cake

13 Oct, 2008

 

lol good stuff Dee, brilliant that the apples came from your garden

13 Oct, 2008

 

What,you mean he never got his cooking skills from you lol

13 Oct, 2008

 

looks yummy, glad it tasted yummy too!

13 Oct, 2008

 

lol if he inherited my cooking skills janette the school would have burnt down

13 Oct, 2008

Wow ... will he make cakes for our wait at the olympic bus stop ???

13 Oct, 2008

 

Judging by that bus stop Amy he d need to make a few .Think it could be a long wait.

13 Oct, 2008

 

How odd ~
You'll see I was having a similar idea over at the bus stop. :o)

13 Oct, 2008

 

Brilliant !

Another idea when he gets bored with apple is plum and pears with grated ginger served with double cream.Cook until going soft before putting the crumble on.Or use a tin of peaches with a lot of the liquid poured off.That's quick and gorgeous!.A man who can cook is worth his weight in gold!

Arlene that sounds lovely

13 Oct, 2008

 

My lot do like their desserts!
Used to make a wicked bread and butter pudding with 6 eggs and at least a pint of milk-it would be light like mousse with brown sugar and sultanas served hot with cream.
We use a lot of cream!

13 Oct, 2008

 

Begs the question Arlene - whats a man worth who cant cook?

13 Oct, 2008

 

ahhhhhhhh Arlene, stop please lol, wouldnt mind but i had a big dinner but reading abour your desserts im hungry again

13 Oct, 2008

 

worth teaching if possible! Most of the good Chefs are male.
my son in law recently tried something quite difficult for my daughter coming home from a work trip away,bought all the ingredients himself and used her Nigella cook book & bought the wine-she was thrilled to bits! Lots of Brownie points!
I d love to come home from work and find tea ready!

13 Oct, 2008

 

aww that was lovely of him

13 Oct, 2008

 

Mmm tried that once with a chicken dinner forgot that giblets were in a bag inside the chicken . Gained one brownie point for the thought.

13 Oct, 2008

 

lol Bonkers i think we have all done that, well i know i have

I like vanilla custard with mine please Son of Irish.

13 Oct, 2008

 

no problem Ams lol

13 Oct, 2008

 

Yes I'm sure I have done that!Well done though!
Worse is forgetting that circle of Polystyrene stuck to the bottom of some pizzas!
Lovely plasticky taste!

13 Oct, 2008

 

Poor Son of Irish. Every time he cooks anything - even beans on toast, he'll be wondering if its photo will go world-wide on GoY.
Will he remember us all when he's a famous international chef ? :o)

13 Oct, 2008

 

when i showed him all the lovely comments that were left here he took a bow lol.
most of what he makes at school never gets brought home TT but he knows i love apples and thats why i got to actually see on of his creations lol

13 Oct, 2008

 

as long as we can get a table!
We had a meal at the Hard Rock Cafe in Edinburgh on Wednesday last week=lovely cocktail called Bahama Mama!- Chicken salad with citrus sauce and served with loads of roasted pecan nuts.
We are thinking about producing a book with the best places to get nice food without breaking the bank!
Will it sell Eileen?

13 Oct, 2008

 

great idea Arlene, i know tons of places in Edinburgh that you can have fantastic meals really cheap.

13 Oct, 2008

 

Shouldn't bother about the bank anymore Arlene think they're already broken :o(

13 Oct, 2008

 

Too right Janey-
I would like to know who actually owns the Halifax now-unfortunately or fortunately? not lots of dosh held by them for me anymore!

13 Oct, 2008

 

change of subject Arlene, whats in a Bahama Mama cocktail, my daughter wants to know

13 Oct, 2008

 

i think its
Bacardi,Malibu,banana liquer, Pineapple, Orange juice and spash of Grenadine-very drinkable-had two in no time!

13 Oct, 2008

 

Also like Blue Hawaiian.Sex on the Beach and Alabama Slammer Some of these we have also had at TGI's.

13 Oct, 2008

13 Oct, 2008

 

Usually only on birthdays when we all go out together-mostly it"s Beringer Zinfandel ! or a nice white!
Caz arranged a cocktail evening for her best friend who got married recently,The guy turned up and showed them how to make them and she has all the kit now!
Husband likes Powers Gold Label but finding it harder to get now.

hi Eileen
apparently it's something to do with the exchange rate of the euro to sterling. -They have decided to stop export to the UK and export to the Eurozone instead! Apparently not just Powers but other brands as well.
We will have to come to Dublin more often!
