Josie often jumps up on your shoulder so you can walk around with her up there, but now she has taken it to new extremes, she just gets up there and lets her legs hang so you can stand up straight walking around with her
my dad was going around all morning like this...

We were just told to close the threads with over 10k posts and copy a few of the last posts into a new thread, just to keep the thread going.

Guess what? If you can't come up with food suggestions, even the Ritz hotel will serve mushroom risotto at some stage in the meal. Uber delicious anyway (oh God I need to kidnap their chef!) but yeah... It was a three course meal plus dessert, wedding cake (best one I've ever had tbh. I tend to dislike wedding cakes but this one was amazing), coffee and chocolates at the end. I had more food than most other people because a lot of them didn't like duck liver or very rare (read: pretty much raw) meat, and they were too embarrassed to send it back for a little more cooking. My sis was kind enough to ask them to make more of the veggie dishes so that her very picky friends could have them if they didn't like the main food.
But I sleepily digress...
The point is: Risotto. Mushroom. Seriously.0 -

I was beginning to wonder if anothernight would make it into this installment of the grapevine!
You haven't gotten married have you :eek: :P
If you like mushroom risotto, marks and spencers had an amazing deal recently, main, side, dessert, bottle of wine for €12. The mushroom risotto was pretty much the only veggie main option but it was bloody amazing. Got vegetable gratin for a side. Actually the dessert we got ended up not being veggie :O so check that but they had plenty to choose from. Tesco have a deal similar to this but the M&S one was far better.0 -

Married? No! I wish... >_>
I haven't actually posted on any online forums in like a million years. Not sure why. I was wondering there for a second if someone broke the thread, and then I found out that Tar just broke it off on purpose. Same thing really.
M&S food... mmm. What was the dessert?0 -
The thread was broked >_>
And here's me, old poster of like 70 yrs old...ancient!! Still going on, posting away and meeting folks.
I may be tired, that may be some sort of "in-joke", I'm tired...eating delicious cake I baked is too much, goodnight 0 -

It was raspberry panna cotta, it tasted lovely to me at first, then I was trying to remember what the taste reminded me of and when I realised it tasted like custard it's like I wasn't tasting the same thing again.Master of Nothing wrote: »The thread was broked >_>

lemon cake I quite like! Don't suppose any of you baking lot know where to get peppermint essence, I'm trying to make something with it. It seems impossible to get at this stage.
I will but it will be somewhat lame but halloween themed nonetheless.0 -

It's true, his lemon cake was delicious. I'm waiting on more cake.
Peppermint essence is usually stocked in Superquinn or Tesco. Maybe they've been having problems with delivery or something. If you were particularly desperate and had all the time in the world, you could soak chopped (or pestle&mortar, better) peppermint leaves in vodka or any neutral-tasting alcohol for ages and actually make your own extract. Might be easier to just use the actual leaves for flavouring in the recipe though.0 -
