Haha..wonder who's? ;0)

it would have to be the david tennant doctor though, for he is yum

Can't argue with that. Also the best Doctor we've had since...well, ever possibly.

Chilli on pizza? Methinks an idea is forming...chilli sauce for the base, shove some beans on, and a beefy topping. Think it could work.

The beans are yum. I'm quite pleased with the varieties you can get these days, really. Now if they did the five beans one (I think they're haricot, kidneys, borlotti, canellini and some other type of bean I can remember the name of...magic beans??) in a BBQ sauce, and I'd be in heaven!

Is it abnormal that I'm watching 'Who Do You Think You Are' (which this week is Alex Kingston) and I'm thinking "your parents are Amy & Rory...be honest now". Lost my mind, I swear...

 

[Jaly]

Haha, your imagination always makes me giggle Simon!

Looks like a fab day as usual - sorry I haven't been popping in as much, been super busy with school work etc

Hope you're well, food looks delicious - might have to give the beans a go myself!

As far as the David Tennant situation goes.. find me a blonde version about 15 years younger and he can heal me with his sonic screwdriver anytime! lol

You know me too well Daisy

Have a great day today Simon! Hope the weather for you is nicer than it is here :/

Morning. Unfortunately the weather has gone the usual Welsh way, and is raining & has gone cold. Quite frustrating, really, as yesterday was beautiful. Don't mind the cold, though...providing it stays dry and doesn't snow, I much prefer cold weather to hot weather.

Just got off the scales, and unfortunately I've put a pound on this past week. Bit disappointed by that, but as I said earlier in the week I'm not overly surprised by that. Just the consequences of my noming on my trip down to Kent, so all in all I can live with that. Soon have that back off, I'm sure.

It sounds bizarre given I've only been back a day, but I've a day off today thanks to no overtime...so lets see if I can finish a few wills today. Got to find out where all this money & land has got too...'cause it certainly ain't got down to us!

Looking good today, you'll have that 1lb off no problem simon

 

[bolero982]

Thanks Han. I hope so. Must admit I'm looking forward to the casserole. It's the last of the dishes I cooked for the freezer the other week, and I've not tried it as yet. Smelt beautiful while cooking, mind you.
Still got a sweet potato left at home from it mind. No idea what to cook with it, if I'm honest. Usually I'd make chips, but don't want to be frying it...and mashed sweet potato is more than a bit "ming".

 

[Shelbyflyinsolo]

i usually peel + slice sweet potatoes into thinish circle shapes and spray them with frylight and bake them on a oven tray they go lovely and crisp and you can flavour them with allsorts, garlic graules, chilli flakes, basically any herbs or spices you have knocking about!

 

[Saint-penfold]

Hope it's ok to jump in! Recipe I found for sweet potato is to bake in the microwave / oven, then scoop out the inside, mash with phili light or extra light, mix with bacon (quorn bacon??) and put back into the potato skins and grill for a couple of mins. Yummy!
