What are you eating right now ?

[chopin2015]

Deer shishkabobs, carrot, pesto and bread. Yuuuum!

[ted]

My favourite late night supper - toasted English muffins with huge blobs of butter and crushed garlic.

[chopin2015]

Nice, ted! I had deer steak and salad.

[m1469]

Green mango with lime and salt!

[ted]

My wife's particular favourite ! Her citrus delight is calamansi (kumquat), of which we have a large tree in the garden. She also likes her green mangos with heaps of bagoong, a very strong Philippine fish sauce.

[m1469]

Oh, wow!  I used to eat kumquat when I was a wee little one (they don't grow where I currently live).  I am not a huge fan of fish sauce when it's perceptible as itself, but I would try the snack if it were presented to me the way you describe.

[m1469]

And Patacones!  (fried plantaines)

[ted]

That looks delicious too ! Our kumquat tree used to be no more than a foot or two high for years. Then over two seasons it suddenly burgeoned into its present state, producing hundreds of fruit every year. At present it is just reaching the end of its winter crop. My wife also likes a kumquat squeezed into her tea in the morning with honey.

Baked salmon with rice and mushroom sauce

[ted]

Feijoa crumble; our feijoa trees are producing a huge crop this year. They are good for jam too.

[ted]

Also, while I think about it, this little plastic cup with holes in the bottom and filter paper makes easily the best cup of coffee I have ever tasted; far superior to that made by our espresso machine or plunger. I just grind by hand a few spoonfuls of good, fresh beans reasonably finely, tip it into the paper and slowly pour on hot water. I wouldn't use anything else now, and haven't bought a coffee out for months. My son bought it from a Japanese shop in town for $3.

I enjoy your pictures of your dinners, Ted.  The Salmon with rice and mushroom sauce looks good.

[m1469]

Ted, this is how I make my coffee every morning!  I love it

[goldentone]

Ted, this is how I make my coffee every morning!  I love it

That's queeneriffic!

*dreams of great coffee*

[m1469]

Just ate an artichoke.  It was really delicious!

[ted]

London bread pudding and cream. It looks singularly inauspicious but tastes heavenly. It is the best dessert I have ever eaten, without exception. The recipe was given to us by a genuine cockney from Stepney and we have enjoyed it regularly for over thirty years.

[thalbergmad]

My old mum used to make that.

Certainly fills you up.

[ted]

As soon as it comes out of the oven I pour a large cupful (or two) of brandy over it, letting it soak through; the smell is irresistible. The people we had to dinner on Saturday are strict teetotallers, so I did it in the next room while they were busy gossiping. They remarked about the delectable, unusual taste and had second helpings.

[Bob]

Soon, roasted garlic, or my first attempt at it.

[ayolove]

eba and egusi soup..... lols

[Bob]

Chicken hearts (and gizzards and livers).


Maybe I'll absorb their life force by eating their hearts.

Kind of gross to see a group of hearts and know each one was keeping something alive for a while.

[themusne]

cheese cake.

[goldentone]

I just had a verdant peach.  'Sbeen awhile.

 

[Bob]

Kimchee and rice.

[Bob]

Kimchee, rice, tofu, and bean sprouts.  My own creation.  It actually tastes ok so far.

[Bob]

Yam.

You are what you eat.  I'm eating yam.  I eat.  Therefore, y'am.

[Bob]

Seaweed and chocolate (60%).

[Bob]

Dang... Time flies.


Polenta.  Mushroom and onion. 

It's actually not bad.  I saw them in the store and picked a couple up.  Polenta rolls.  Italian.  Cornmeal in a roll, similar to grits. 

[compline]

Seaweed and chocolate (60%).

Hey Bob, do you check where the seaweed comes from? 
It might be polluted.

[Bob]

It comes from the plastic container. 

Also makes a nice glow in the dark nightlight.


How do you know where the seaweed is from?  I would imagine it's from some kind of farm.

[goldentone]

I am having a Raspberry pastry and my French Vanilla coffee.
I am looking forward to having something of the same in some quaint
"bed and breakfast" in the yonder country.

[thalbergmad]

In a few short hours, i will be partaking of breakfast which normally consists of 12 Weetabix and 200g of blueberries.

[kawai_cs]

In case somebody is interested - I just ate a teriyaki salmon with vegetables and rice that I cooked myself. It was ok but not really the same delicious thing that I ate in Bangkok once. If it was possible to switch from eating food to just swallowing a pill I would gladly do that!

[kawai_cs]

Chicken noodle soup, greek yoghurt with toasted almonds. Ok... and a handful of cheerios.

[pencilart3]

air

[kawai_cs]

I wish air could do it for me sometimes:-)
Ok, but back to the topic of this post.
Latte with cinnamon and some pastry. Yum!

[goldentone]

While looking to the auspices of a promising day, I am having a Raspberry Pastry
and my French vanilla coffee.

[kawai_cs]

Good for you!! I decided to not eat pastries anymore
But I will have my favourite toffee butter coffee with cinnamon:-) I find it even better than French vanilla bc it is kind of creamy.

[Bob]

Walnuts.

*Bob pretends he's eating tiny brains....*  Brains....

[yewtree]

Chicken Sandwiches, with Cranberry sauce. 

Eve's pudding and custard. Small portion.
