Zombie's Journey into 2017: One day at a time

[IamtheZombie]

Previous thread is HERE

Happy New Year Phalanx and, indeed, all of Mumsnet!!

We've had the wedding. We've had Christmas. Or, as I refer to it: THE MOST AMAZING CHRISTMAS EVER.

Now it's onward one day at a time.

There will be planning of the wake so it's going to be THE MOST AMAZING PARTY THREAD EVER.

If you've not joined us yet, please do so now.

I had a phase of savoury ice cream a while ago, beetroot and horseradish was a great success.

Savoury ice cream is a perversion!

savoury ice cream - - maybe with some nice smoked mackerel, as a canape

Breaking news - Cannabidiol to be legalised for medical use

Savoury ice cream sounds like it would accompany a Marguerite Patten meaty bits in aspic recipe.

Beetroot and horseradish ice cream, only if it isn't too heavy on the horseradish. It makes my nose hurt.

Roses yay! About bloody time.

The best thing about this thread is that Zombie showed 2016 who is boss.

The food is a close second. I still have the duck rilette I ordered for Christmas week and some of queen delia's cranberry and onion confit, which goes with it beautifully. I was planning on devouring it on crusty bread, when the boys are back at school, but will gladly share.

That sounds extremely posh PickAChew

Bath did I see ale on offer? Homebrewed?

Fid I've got the bottle stop pourer things and several large glass bowls that we use for cocktails; if those would be of use?

Zombie the playlist is looking good.

Unfortunately not starting. Shepherd Neame.

Roses I was just reading about that, about bloody time!

Anyone think third if a yule log, slab of Christmas cake, 1.5 panetone, tin of biscuits, box of truffels and two halves of stale birthday cake might be welcome? Or shall I just raid the cellar for a couple of cases of The Languedoc's finest it ain't that fine

Not sure about the stale birthday cake tbf.

Shepherd Neame! Are you a Kentish Maid or Maid of Kent? I was/am a Maid of Kent

You could always 'feed it' if it's fruity, Bathsheba.

Stale birthday cake? Surely that converts to trifle?

I'd just cut out the middleman and slosh it with liberal amounts of spirituous liquor!

Neither but my cousin's a Kentish Maid, if I remember it the right way round, but she wasn't born there, just brought up, does that even count?

Too sick of the sight of cake to feed it. Cd freeze it I suppose.

Bath a few several Whitstable Bay would go down well 🍻
Just checked the alcohol cupboard and I've got tequila, vodka, gin, cointreau, cassis, more vodka, prosecco, champagne how long does it last, it might have been there a while!, wine.

Chips and cheese might be required!

Hmmmm……trifle….with MrsNutella's special brownies and copious amounts of sherry

I'm at your alcohol cupboard starting!

I have to go to sleep now, carry on organising the party without me. Night.

hang on white - aren't they are for drying glasses ?????

Can I bring this little anecdote to the party?

One mum on our class Whatsapp just posted "Do you want to fuck or not?"
Clearly by accident & meant for her husband.
I can't stop laughing
She told him what she'd done, he's in fits of laughter like the rest of us.
Winner of "wrong number"😉
