So what's in the pot then ?

Have succumbed to a take out from the local Punjabi curry house.

Samosa chaat (Samosa covered with chick pea curry, yogurt and chopped onion)
2 veggie kebabs (strict Sikhs are veggie, apparently)
1 mango milkshake

with a poppadom and half a jar of lime pickle on the side.

Nobody's kissing me tonight!

 

but this is from all of us Madahhlia,

 

Mmmm all sounds lovely.
Had fresh chicken and mushroom pasta with jerk chicken tonight.
When it's cold and miserable outside no one wants to eat salads do they

 

I might have to Mowgley if i keep eating these Maltesers at the rate i am doing

 

I was going to ask the same of you FC as I'm very partial to Mango milkshake*
Jenny
we know it as Mango Lassi

Don't say they're putting dogs in milkshakes now

 

Aww thanks. I'll try not to breathe.

Far too late!

 

Lassi is made with yogurt. I have the milk version. I think they whizz it up with tinned mango puree and sugar. It's rather, ahem, filling. Or was that the first course?

 

I keep having fry ups followed by spotted dick!!! lovely comfort food, I smother it in Aunt Bessies instant custard!!!!!

 

Its inbuilt to eat higher calorie fatty foods when the weathers bad for us folk who's ancestors endured the current ice age.

Folk that evolved in warmer climates don't have the same problem.

 

Thanks Zigs, you've given us all an excuse for the bad food we're eating.

I've had toad-in-the-hole this evening and right now I'm delving into the chocolate.

 

The wife and I had eggy bread (not french toast, definitely eggy bread), because we're all lurgied up and that was considered comfort food.

I didn't fancy that though, so I had rice and vegetables, including, guess what, actually fresh brocolli out of my actual garden.

 

Brilliant!! I bet that tasted gorgeous!!!

It was. There wasn't much there. I bought 6 young plants last year. I got them dirt cheap because it was after broccoli season when I got them, but I planted them out anyway. They've been there all last autumn and then winter, and had managed to grow a few florets, which I pinched for my tea. I'm hoping that as the weather warms up they'll produce more.
