[fourquenelles]

Thought I'd open up in anticipation as I have Fat Club tonight so may miss the very start.

I was going to suggest a drinking game. Take a swig every time Greg(g) gurns to camera but we would all be pissed in the first 3 minutes.

No it wasn't my cup of tea at all, but she mentions it every chance she gets, think she had to lose the weight to have the baby June, I think she was fourquenelles, I'll have a google later

Would you want to go first, or second in this challenge? I was thinking second, as then you wouldn't have to have a plan of what to make, but then the person who comes second has to end up with food that is actually edible and presentable, so that seems worse ...

Oh they both have to finish off the dishes together

I think second too. All the butchery is out of the way then.

Evening Halsall

I think I'd want to go first June, then blame any mess ups on the person who went second

Tina has a 34 year old as well

Yeah - 'but I was obviously making lobster thermidor! What do you mean, you don't know how to cook lobster thermidor? I got it all ready for you!'

Louise Minchin was also on a C4 history thing where they went back in time and had to be housemaids or medieval wenches or whatever. Not surprisingly, she probably wants some other job so as not to have to get up at 03:40 or whatever godawful wake up call she mentioned.

June

I need to start watching these live so I can come on the threads!
DD2 and I are still catching up on Wednesday's show. I really like the Paralympian and the BBC presenter lady - Louise Michin I think?

Mmm their pud looks nice

Has she iklboo, wow, I thought the ten year gap between my two was big.

June lol

waves back to Hearts. I like the swimmer too but she and Sid haven't done too well in the relay task.

OK. I predict custard.

Catering challenge what are the odds on veggie pasta bake

ellen I like your thinking

Oh I was wrong again, next week I'm saying veggie curry

The stuffed mushrooms sound nice so long as the mushrooms don't get overcooked and watery.

ellen every other week you would have been right

Two vegetable peelers in a kitchen that big?? Seems a bit daft

DH has just observed that a professional kitchen would have a) a potato peeling machine and b) an industrial-sized food processor to zap those biscuits in seconds

That does seem more likely

I love mushrooms, went out for dinner awhile ago and ordered the portobello mushroom burger, when it arrived I mentioned that they seemed to have forgotten the burger part, the waitress very nicely pointed out that the portobello was the actual burger part as it was a vegetarian option

I was expecting a nice juicy burger topped with the mushroom

Oh ellen what a disappointment. I have used portobello mushrooms as the bun before but had a juicy meaty burger in the middle.

Oh no, how disappointing ellen . You needed the carnivorous option.
