Tilllly · 14/12/2023 23:22

@MinnieMountain

There's a secret marmite stash?!

ScottBakula · 14/12/2023 23:41

@Tilllly , yes there is , not just the standard spread either there is XO , Chilli , low salt and peanut butter, crisps, flat bread , rice cakes .
It's over there round the corner
--->>> but dont let @sashh see it , she hates the stuff

@sashh Ah hemm , >> whistles while looking around innocently<<< . This ? Ah umm , it's treacle on toast honest 😁

sashh · 15/12/2023 00:14

Morning.

Just to clarify the marmite is in a locked safe in the garden, if you want to use that evil stuff you must do s in the garden, make sure any crumbs stay in the garden and do not feed it to the bumblecats.

OK breakfast.

I'm feeling a little luxury is in order so smoked salmon with scrambled eggs, on a bagel with cream cheese or eggs benedict.

Florence is making cheese souffle and Fernando is making bucks fizz.

I'll make some salmon terine for pack up with some soft brown bread and a flask of courgette soup.

>>>scurrys away quickly to finish toast and check for crumbs<<<

ScottBakula · 15/12/2023 00:35

Ok I am back , toast eaten, crumbs cleared up, knife and plate washed thoroughly in very hot water .

@sashh please can I have salmon and scrambled eggs but no bagel . And a soufflé, I am starving .

sashh · 15/12/2023 00:46

Not a problem @ScottBakula I'll scramble an extra egg.

Ooh I'd love some scrambled eggs please and a smoothie. Courgette soup for later sounds delicious too.

I drank two glasses of wine last night and feel like I've had the whole bottle. I'll just settle into this cosy corner with my eyes shut for a while.

sashh · 15/12/2023 04:51

@fivetriangulartrees Do you want them on toast?

OP posts:
fivetriangulartrees · 15/12/2023 04:59

Next to the toast please, if that's OK.

sashh · 15/12/2023 05:21

Absolutely no problem.

Morning.

Well this morning I'm taking inspiration from the Cook Islands.

So a traditional breakfast of pawpaw, toasted coconut and lime juice.

Obviously there will be coffee and tea and Florence is making croissants and Fernando is making an apple and pear cider cocktails.

For pack up I'm making minestrone soup with garlic bread.

OP posts:
Tilllly · 16/12/2023 10:46

Ohhh that pack up sounds amazing

I keep meaning to do a home made minestrone, I'm sure it'd be pretty simple

ScottBakula · 16/12/2023 11:05

I have never tried pawpaw so please can I have a small portion @sashh .

The minestrone soup will be great for later.

sashh · 16/12/2023 11:48

Hands over small plate of pawpaw.

Morning.

Well for a complete change lets head to the Falkland Islands.

There is a range of imported foods and drinks but I'm sticking to local produce so mutton chops and penguin eggs.

Florence is making buns with tea berries and diddle dee jam, Fernando is making Scurvy grass cocktails.

For pack up it's a flask again, a squid and kelp asian style broth with fried calamari on the side.

OP posts:
Tilllly · 17/12/2023 04:38

🐧 🥚?!?

sashh · 17/12/2023 04:51

Yes @Tilllly until fairly recently hen's eggs either came from Chile or some people had a couple of hens.

And apparently if you are eating Calamari in France or Spain it is likely to be from the Falklands.

OP posts:
MinnieMountain · 17/12/2023 07:08

Morning
I’m a bit hungover, so I’ll stick with the buns and jam please. And a very large coffee.

Tilllly · 17/12/2023 08:35

Good night @MinnieMountain?

sashh · 17/12/2023 09:05

<hands over buns and coffee>

OP posts:
MinnieMountain · 17/12/2023 09:40

It was @Tilllly . Also, I can’t handle them so well in my 40s 😁

Thank you @sashh . I’ll settle down in a big chair by the fire and watch the kitten bees.

sashh · 18/12/2023 02:08

Morning.

Well I'll hand the left over penguin eggs over to Florence to make lemon drizzle cakes.

For a change lets head to Afghanistan.

Eggs scrambled with tomatoes, rhot (sweet flatbread made with apricots), paneer and yoghurt with pistachios.

Fernando is making cocktails with Afghan pomegranates.

The kittenbees are rehearsing a nativity play, but they can't speak so it's going to be interesting.

OP posts:
sashh · 19/12/2023 06:04

Well I'm going to get a coffee and not cook until / unless someone appears. I'll watch the kittenbees rehearsals.

OP posts:
MinnieMountain · 19/12/2023 06:19

Morning @sashh
Could we have a German breakfast please? I love Weisswurst and pretzel.
The kittenbees rehearsals are going well I see.
