Anchovy and caper salsa… And thanks Pauly. Thanks for the cheer.
Pauly from Paul’s Caul (and various other notoriety) is a great friend and means many other things to me then just cheap “thrills” to say the least, but today I just wanna say thanks to him for the laughs he brings to my day when he sends me a new post. My day usually isn’t…

Paul’s Caul… Soups in all their wonder
People say our eyes are the windows to our souls, but then these same ridiculous people say “deodorant isn’t for me, I just use petuli oil” yeah you guessed it, they are hippies and yes you’re right again they stink and I do not like them or their passive aggressive ways. But regardless of these…

Part three The final installment of this gripping trilogy. Back home. Looking at my own bed that defo has a comfort factor of at least 9. Pretty happy about that. There were burgers and home-made chips on the couch. Not actually on the couch but we ate them laying on the couch in our old…

One Ingredient – Sweet and Savoury… The Choko
Extra language of the salty old sea dog alert. So I got my theme ingredient for the sweet and savoury challenge from my sister in law Liz. She is clearly trying to prove that in-laws are the nasty evil new-family-member-hating peeps they are made out to be. CHOKOS. I hate fucking chokos. I don’t mean…

Paul’s Caul – Fennel in all its glory… & ‘the Lido’ crew
We seem to be doing more requests of late and that means someone must actually be reading this, so kudos to us! Today’s request is from another blogger named “pantryobsession” and we like her for several reasons, her name is cool and she likes us… both brilliant reason’s. The request is in the same format…

Mussaman curry spiced lamb by Gareth the work experience kid
While I am in the mood for doing odes and paying homages, this one is for Gareth, the work experience kid we had in the kitchen last week. Gareth is also my nephew. I think he thought he may have got off quite lightly working with his ol’ Uncle Graz, but we worked that little…

My Rum Diaries, A Birthday Feast, Lemonade for Breakfast, and Other Ramblings…
This is just a little FYI, a heads up, a snippet of information about me, and my Achilles Heal of the world of alcoholic beverages. If we by some random twist of fate ever meet and say, go out for a bit of a drink and a laugh, please do not buy me rum. Rum…
