I'm afraid unlike Gail's healthy Indian food today for me was a dietary bust! It started with a Carmel machiato and a bacon Gouda breakfast sandwich from Starbucks. Lunch ended up being...and this is so sad, lol, I ate my kids leftovers!...two fried eggs and a piece of bacon and a slice of toast with jam (really? I microwaved that?) and to top it off dinner was mcdonalds! The two cheeseburger meal with fries, I don't really do soda pop but I even drank a half of one. A bacon kind of day, oh dear...

Have you ever had a Wendy's Baconator cheeseburger? Heaven on earth - but you cannot possibly eat the whole thing, even the Junior size! Yep - good old buttery mashed potatoes are as satisfying as anything when you just need plain comfort food. I'd been craving mashed potatoes forever so now I've got enough for a whole family! But soooo good, though.

Oh, and sometimes, a big spoonful of whole-grain mustard stirred in... Oh, and other sometimes , a whole load of cheddar cheese grated into it - then put into the oven to brown off.... You've got tooooo much going on, young lady - think you need to have a little Surrey visit - I'll look after you - feed you up....!!!!

What is "single cream"? Sounds yummy whatever it is. I'm for anything that has the word "cream" in the title. A trip to Surrey sounds just the ticket, Sally. I would love to just watch you cook all those wonderful things you all have to eat, not to mention get to chow down on them. What a treat that would be, girl! Wahoo!

Single cream, I THINK, is the same(ish) as your 'light cream'? I make my mash differently now...ever since I had my back/shoulder problems.... Our 'top chefs' recommend doing baked potatoes in the oven (we call them 'jackets') then scoop out the middle, into a bowl and gently fork over, so there is no huge bashing/mashing involved - and the taste is amazing...

YT 2000 Club Donating Member | Jeanie you have not lived until you have tasted Englands creams. They have double cream, single cream, devon cream. The closest we could get here is if you know a milk dairy farmer. When I lived in an ashram we had a dairy farmer who supplied our cream and milk - heavenly. I might be wrong but the double cream is the thickest cream that rises to the top of the milk. This is the real deal... Double cream is even heavier than our whipping cream, single cream closest approximation would be what we call in Canada Table cream 018% or some such.

My sister and I took a class called "The English Way of Tea" together and the veddy proper English teacher taught us about and provided many samples of English teas and talked endlessly about the difference in the teas, jams, eggs and dairy products there and here, providing some samples for tasting and cooking from an English restaurant or bakery in Dallas who supposedly had many of their baking supplies, dairy, eggs overnighted-in from England, in addition to teaching us the "proper" way to make tea and set up the table, how to pick our teapots, china, linens, etc., and prepare for a basic afternoon tea, which we had every class. We made butter and cucumber and other finger sandwiches, baked our own scones and little cakes during most of the lessons and learned how to slice meats and breads very, very thinly! My scones were almost always a wreck(way too dry) when we baked them but some turned out wonderfully and teacher was pleased. She provided several English jams and marmalades almost each lesson and we enjoyed everything enormously. We learned about high tea as well as a cream tea. We had a ball during the classes, must have gained 5 lbs. or more each and ended our lessons, which began in late January through early April, with a tea the class attended by the fireplace at The Mansion on Turtle Creek in Dallas. I've forgotten most of what I learned in that class but remember discovering my ever-abiding love for Eagle Brand Sweetened Condensed Milk in that class and have been addicted to it ever since - how like an American to have that be one of my abiding memories from English tea class. Still, one day I hope to take tea in England and eat chicken in or very near Bresse.

YT 2000 Club Donating Member | Left over Roast Beef, Gravy, Boiled Potatoes (with Parsley), and mixed veges. How-ever lunch was a buttery crumpet and goat cheese, with roasted red peppers on too

Donating Senior Yorkie Talker | I will regret it later but when I got back from the vet, I ordered pizza from Papa Johns along with the chicken poppers and giant cookie. Since I live alone, there is plenty left over that I will probably eat tomorrow.😳 |
