It's the world's most delicious white bread, normally found in the bakery section of Tescos etc :)

Tiger bread is only nasty when you've skimped on the BUTTER!  :P

I looooooove tiger bread!

We're having something BF calls Hunter's Stew.  It's basically veg, chorizo-y sausage, and beans with a tomato-y base.  These are technical terms I'm using, of course.  :P

Ditto. If I recall correctly, it always tasted burnt to me.

I'm having 'Balmerhon's mystery stew'. I threw some beef (I think it's stewing beef but my mother hadn't labeled it) into the crock pot with dried onions, garlic, worcs sauce, tabasco, herbs and beef stock. With any luck, it'll cook down nicely and we'll have it over egg noodles with a side salad.
When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down ‘happy’. They told me I didn’t understand the assignment, and I told them they didn’t understand life. ~ John Lennon

Had some leftover steamed veggies to accompany my Pasta aglio e olio (with garlic and oil), just like Papa used to make. Thank you PB for reminding me how good it is!
Finally living with my Husband in London after 6 1/2 years together but apart... and loving my life!
