Pork and black pudding pie, swede mash and well cooked beans with the outdoor tv giving us a Dish podcast with Grayson Perry at his irreverent best.
Lovely.
Nope it was Voakes gluten free pies.Did you make the pie?
DD and I shared breakfast/brunch yesterday. Apple pie pancakes - Stuffed with walnuts and raisins, warm baked apple cinnamon compote & topped with graham crumble. DD ate half a pancake and I had a 1/4 of one pancake.
And corned beef hash, home fries, toast, and we each had one and a half poached eggs.

He's not the only one who stresses out about birthdays (and Christmas).Mr SSOAP stresses out so enormously about my birthday
I’m not difficult to buy for. It’s the cooking that stresses him out, he thinks everything needs to be perfect so applies a lot of pressure to himself which invariably does cause things to go southHe's not the only one who stresses out about birthdays (and Christmas).
Buying a present for my wife is like trying to find the exact tiny fish the South Phillipine dwarf kingfisher prefers.
The very worst thing I can hear is : "surprise me!"![]()

Even reheating things I’ve made prior seems to go wrong for him if it’s my birthday
But the pies were a winner so it looks like my birthday from now on will be Pie Day!
We have Pie WeekJanuary 23 is National Pie Day here.![]()
Some people love peanut butter. I am not one of those, I am with you on the boysenberry and butter. I also like a berry compote and fresh berries.Today's Brunch

Mr. Next Door Neighbor was telling us yesterday about the joys of Peanut Butter schmeared atop a warm Waffle... let's see.
DH's plate (I do not care for PB).
He wasn't impressed and started over with a fresh Waffle and real Maple Syrup.

I went with a boat load of soft Butter and Boysenberry Syrup, thank you very much!!
Yes, I think that would work much better, but like I said, I don't love peanut butter. Also thinking that fresh strawberries and/or bananas atop of that (Nutella) with a light drizzle of honey or syrup might be nice.
