Can't wait. Well actually I can in-so-much-as I am savouring these last moments of homely freedom. All the same working in the food industry and earning some much needed pennies is my dream presently. I think it's gonna be a good adventure.<br /><br />Jean: Know what you mean about enjoying different ways of creating the same things. Such fun. And you are certainly not wierd for watching back to back dvds of food heroes. I love it and find them informative and relaxing and comforting. Good theme for a blog post actually.Maybe the next one for me.Phil Lowehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13481531408247859880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4576959142506128840.post-91679219101831421792010-09-17T10:47:06.298+01:002010-09-17T10:47:06.298+01:00The stew looks delicious.

Your ingredients are slightly different from mine so I will branch out a bit. I haven't used packet dumpling mix - will give it a try - much more sensible than having three quarters of a packet of suet being thrown away because its gone out of date since the last dumplings.<br /><br />PS Glad to hear we're not the only people who watch cooking DVD's back-to-back. We thought we were just sad and wierd !!Jeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09726164724131916224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4576959142506128840.post-34812217775461622322010-09-16T09:14:26.985+01:002010-09-16T09:14:26.985+01:00That there is WINTER food!

Yeah I'm sure these cats are more cunning than they let on as they weave in and out.<br /><br />Athina:I think if I'd added dried biscuits in the stew Soufie would have loved me. As for dumplings. Don't think so.<br /><br />Dedene:Alain Souchon? Not heard of him Dedene.

He also likes to sit in the kitchen when I'm cooking with a hopeful expression on his face and whiskers forward, ears pricked up in great anticipation.<br /><br />Sometimes he gets impatient and resorts to trying to trip me over so that I spill the food on the floor and he can eat it, but I'm wise to that tactic now...Possible Piperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11658364568703042795noreply@blogger.com
