desperanceI'm just frying off a wee pattie of the terrine forcemeat, to test it for seasoning.
Y'know, I could so do this for a living. So long as I could live off one day a year, or thereabouts. I'm not utterly naive, I do know that one reason I enjoy it so much is because it's such a rarity in my life - but oh, I do enjoy it so.
Also, I now want to write a sequence of spec-fic stories about the Tall-Order Cook. It must've been done, though, surely...?
Also also, don't tell the boys but they're eating dogfood. I bought a six-pack of tins that was all wrapped around with sticky tape and emphatically labelled as gushy catfood; got it home, unwrapped it - dogfood. I don't know if there's a price differential, but I thought I'd try it on them once before I took it back.
They? Are exceedingly happy to eat it. Fine. Just, as I say, don't tell 'em...
