Tunnocks Thread 2

The question asked in Thread 1 has still not been answered satisfactorily, and so the quest continues to discover which side of the fence Tunnocks are on or whether they are in fact sat atop the fence throwing Snowballls and Tea cakes at both sides.

I have no idea where the link below will send you. hopefully to the original thread and at the start, but it could be a completely different thread half way through. I'm too full of sugar to concentrate properly!

Excuse me? WHY?????

OK, I know nothing of thongs. I just went to the shop and bought a very blandly named horseradish plant. I just had a look at mine and I'm feeling guilty that I've been neglecting it somewhat.

I was clever today. I got myself two Tunnock’s wafers from the cupboard - because one in each hand is a balanced meal - and then I asked dh to get me one. He doesn’t realise I’d already had two, so doesn’t know what a greedy 🐷 I am. 😁

@CervixSampler - as a fellow crafter, I firmly believe that accumulating the supplies for any given craft, and actually doing the craft, are two entirely separate hobbies.

Which explains why I have got more yarn than a yarn shop, several skirt-lengths of fabric and two dress lengths, a bookbinding kit, the supplies for decopatch, lino printing, painting, patchwork and embroidery - to name but a few. 😳

Accumulating the supplies, looking at the supplies, sorting your supplies, imagining the wonders that could be made with the supplies are all much better and more enjoyable than actually doing anything with the supplies

I love horseradish, lightly garnished with roast beef. If it makes your nose stream, even better.

I've been growing my horseradish plant for the last couple of years and I'm hoping this year will be the year I can harvest the roots. I have been warned though that I'll need googles and plastic gloves to prepare it!

CervixSampler · 23/08/2023 01:34

Oooh. Having worked my way through 2 packets of wafers I know have lots of empty wrappers. And look 7 months pregnant due to them not being sympatico with my ibs. Im going to start cutting them into small pieces in order to savour them more. I'm eating several and calling it a meal which isn't good for me as fun as that is and as great as they taste!
I'm on a house clearing and sorting mission and will get round to the craft drawers and craft box soon to figure out what I have to make decorations. We go through toilet rolls like we go through Tunnocks so there'll be lots of empty loo roll tubes by October to start the crafting.

Bugger I thought I'd posted something and it's gone off wandering into the ether somewhere. Or there is currently someone on another thread going what the fuck is Boiled taking?

Anyway those doing Tunnocks tree decorations, have you considered Tunnocks crackers in your tree.

I should have cut more off my empty kitchen roll tube but I was only making a cup of tea so time was limited.

Horseradish goes in the same pile as kitkats, lemon drizzle cakes and dark Tunnocks I'm afraid. and you can add that odd gloopy stuff that comes with scampi in pubs.

You may want to consider a jar of horseradish with beetroot. Its a bit sweet from the beet but seriously hot at the same time. Available in any Polski Sklep.

My grandad called it Shiveeka but with more of a Z than a S. I have found a lump of Wiejska (the one that looks like cogwheels when you slice it) in the fridge. It's got more garlic than Zywiecka but it is still very smokey.

Mmmmm. Like a bit of sausage me!

I've had to write myself a note to add polish sausage onto the shopping. and gherkins... and butter and crackers, and some nice cheese and some pickled walnuts whilst Im at it. I may be having a "picky tea" week next week

i definitely need some more savoury food next week, I have been overdosing ever so slightly the last few weeks on sugar. God knows why.

I was wondering what the glue gun was for?

Zwyecka? I'm pronouncing that to rhyme with "by 'eck-a"? Polish with a fake Yorkshire accent!

Munches on gherkin, wipes gherkin juice off top. It's very nice Jane.

Be thankful you didn't eat the glue gun Cervix!

Ooh glue gun... Tunnocks Christmas decs. Can't wait to see ones that have been done to a better standard than mine!

There's good news and there's good news that's bad news for my healthy eating plan:

I have a supply of caramel wafers
I've found the glue gun
I've eaten 6 caramel wafers.

I have received the fax...

What do you mean you're just getting blank pages at your end

Can't think what gone wrong

Show quote history

Don't worry. The Zywiecka that DH sent might have been a bit of Krakovska instead. The gherkins were genuine Polish ones though and the mustard came from Dortmund.

DH has faxed a Zywiecka roll to you. I'm looking forward to the Teacakes. I prefer the dark chocolate but I'm not fussy.

Fine, you can have my tea cakes if I can have your soft buttered roll filled with sliced Zywiecka, sliced pickled gherkins and German mustard.I

Mmm Polish sausage. I love a soft buttered roll filled with sliced Zywiecka, sliced pickled gherkins and German mustard. Apart from that, I have a terrible confession to make. I hate coconut and caramel so if isn't a teacake, I'm not interested.
