Sausage sandwiches

Yum!

ScottBakula · 21/03/2024 21:29

Ooh are there any sausage butties left ? I could do some damage to a couple of Cumberland on toast with a dollop of HP.

I have been thinking of getting a vac sealing gadget for a bit. Are the bags expensive @sashh ?

Tilllly · 22/03/2024 04:32

@ScottBakula
My kinda girl... what's a sausage sarnie without HO?

The vac seals - they suck the air out so it takes up less space, yes?

sashh · 22/03/2024 05:18

Morning.

@ScottBakula I don't think so but I'm only using the ones that came with it.

It has to be cheaper than the food I throw away and will give me more room in the freezer.

Well I think a Dutch / German breakfast today so slices of hams and cold cuts, cheeses, bread rolls and hard boiled eggs.

Florence is making Daisy some dog biscuits and Fernando is serving Dutch fruit beers.

Pretty please can Florence make more croissants?

It’s feeling like Spring, so I’m going to wonder in the garden.

sashh · 22/03/2024 08:48

Of course she can make croissants for you.

@Tilllly I love how she has a GD puppy soft toy.

Yum. Thank you Florence.

Tilllly · 22/03/2024 19:46

He is called Stanley @sashh

pollyglot · 23/03/2024 00:13

Ooof ...just had a ciabatta roll with avocado, ham, lettuce, cheese and tomato filling. And of course, a glass of NZ Sauv Blanc with it. Soooo delicious. The sun is shining and the world is full of beauty.

sashh · 23/03/2024 02:35

Morning.

@pollyglot Sounds good, can you make that for everyone? It will save me a job.

Just in case that is too much to ask I'm going to stick a breakfast tray bake or two in the oven. Bacon, mushrooms, cherry tomatoes, sausages and eggs.

Florence is making ciabatta and Fernando has found a case of NZ wines.

Save some for me...I'll be there directly. Anyone got any French pastries going begging? I could murder a pain au chocolat.

sashh · 23/03/2024 05:05

@pollyglot I'll put an order in with Florence.

Do I have to choose btwn rolls and tray bake?

MinnieMountain · 23/03/2024 05:30

Calories don’t count here @Tilllly . Go for it.

I need to try that tray bake please @sashh .

ScottBakula · 23/03/2024 06:22

Can I have a large slice of tray bake brekkie and a coffee @sashh .
It's just getting properly light here so I am going to put the patio heaters on grab a blanket and sit outside.
If anyone has a cat that likes cuddles can I borrow it , mine is been a hissy grouch

ScottBakula · 23/03/2024 06:27

@sashh , I hope your LL shifts their arse and gets your leak sorted out.
I think they should either reduce your rent for the duration that your have had/ will have the leak or get you a decorating voucher. And provide a heater and dehumidifier to help dry things out.

MinnieMountain · 23/03/2024 06:47

@ScottBakula mine loves being scratched under her jaw. I can’t guarantee how long she’ll stay for though.

ScottBakula · 23/03/2024 06:58

@MinnieMountain , I will offer scratches until she has had enough.😺

ScottBakula · 24/03/2024 03:20

Morning all, I see the ducks have laid lots of eggs and Leo has only stolen one so before he swipes the rest I will make up a big batch of omelette mix and put it in the fridge .
I have left some yokes for Fernando to make egg nog with.

Tilllly · 24/03/2024 03:44

I've never had egg nog
Just the thought of it makes me gip

sashh · 24/03/2024 03:45

Omelettes and eggnog, what a nice start. I'll ask Florence to make some bagels as well.

OP posts:
ScottBakula · 24/03/2024 03:49

@Tilllly , I have never tried fresh eggnog but I like the shop bought stuff

naughty40me · 24/03/2024 04:04

Sorry to butt in but was sent a link to this thread for someone to talk to.

I've been out tonight around town with an old friend. Not been for years.

Ended up in a bar with the woman my ex left me for (they are no longer together and he now sends me messages every day). I don't think she saw me but....

On one hand thank the lord that I have finally reached the point that my counsellor said I would....."you will be in the same room one day and it won't bother you"..... I guess that's true, but also not or I wouldn't be posting lol!

But low and behold the penny has dropped. We lost a child together then he cleated. Had a child with her. Obviously that child is totally innocent and I wish no ill on them.

However tonight has made me see...why the hell am I engaging in these Messages??? We slept together for a few years but that stopped in 2020 yet the contact continues...

I have moved home, got a new job. My whole life has changed yet still this link to the past. Tonight has been like reliving my youth...going back to the same old haunts but no....I'm not that person anymore.

I'm quite spiritual and I honestly think tonight was showing me what I needed to see/hear...

Any thoughts? Please be kind

sashh · 24/03/2024 04:08

@naughty40me

Wellcome.

It sounds like you have had a revelation.

Habits are hard to break, even if they are bad ones.

So what are you doing next? Stopping the messages?
