Re: FMB Fanclub

I've got to get to the butchers to order my turkey crown, might have beef as well. Starters is either home made tomato soup (easy) or pate (lovely but the smell of minced liver makes me heave). There's some debate about dessert, I want it to be a Marks and Sparks chocolate brownie, but everyone else is insisting on individual trifles (why did it turn out so lovely last year, I'll have to make them again now) or the scrummy Nigella version of old fashioned choc cake. Might give in and do both.

I love prawns Saph, prawns and melon is lovely, but I'm in the minority with that in my house.

Re: FMB Fanclub

I love my pate too Wendy and have made my own, I don't like messing with raw chicken livers lol I have to cut all the iffy bits off. I start with 1lb of livers and end up with about 1/2lb I can use lol I also find it very filling and am in and out of the kitchen doing the toast (we like the toast hot)
I don't like prawns, so as for the melon, you cant beat 1/2 a melon middle scooped out and filled with port lol delish and not filling and you get steadily tipsier with every course

Re: FMB Fanclub

Scrummy! But my brother in law doesn't drink (because he used to drink far too much a long long time ago) so can't even put sherry in his trifle, much less port in his melon lol. I don't use chicken liver, I use pork liver, and get the butcher to mince it for me cos when I tried to do it myself I blew the motor up on my processor. I don't do technical very well, as you may have guessed lol.

Re: FMB Fanclub

Hmmmmm I might to invidual mannekins filled with water cress and prawns tossed in garlic butter and served with rustic bread, but my mum at 84 won't eat it, although not to worry cos she only eats her main meal anyway. She's really only eating side plate size meals now. So I might run with that idea.

Re: FMB Fanclub

Morning,
Well Jack is out and about again today, an old wives tale says that the frost will kill germs, so we should all be fighting fit this morning lol

There are quite a few xmas ads on TV now, well it is only 6 weeks off lol I do like the Argos one where everyone is rushing about, that's about just how it is lol
I remember when i was little the two ads that stick out in my mind were Tick a tick a Timex tra la la, everyone was happy with a Timex watch then, now it has to be Rolex lol.
Then the Babycham ad with the little deer, it's still going today, don't know who drinks it these days, but it's not bad with a drop of brandy in it.

Re: FMB Fanclub

Jack frost has been here this morning too, still I wrapped up well before i went out to work this morning...... even bought a pair of ear muffs on ebay last week....look really daft but hey... not many that are out and about at 6 in the morning to see me anyway lol.

The xmas add's are everywhere now..... at least i have finally made a start, nipped into town yesterday and got a few stocking fillers and smellies for the rellies
will be making my Bailys choc trifle again this year to take to mum's, can't do that till the day before though...very rich....very yummy and will definatly get you pished if eaten in large enough quantities...lol

will be heading into town again later.... saw a Fender electric guitar in a music shop window...spoke to hubby and we have decided to try and get one for my eldest...... he has an old guitar that belonged to my uncle atm and has done really well with it over the last year even though it's a fairly basic model..... he'll be thrilled with a more grown up model...... as for the youngest...... well we are still scratching our heads on that one..... no idea what to get him yet...lol it won't be the drum kit he want's though pmsl (no where to put it for a start)

Re: FMB Fanclub

Morning all, yep Jack's out here as well, although the sun is out and bright blue skies oooooh lovely, just right for a walk in the park with the dog. Shame I got my leg in beckham boot and I havn't got a dog, sob.
Ooooh Tempty Bailey's Choc Trifle hun, sounds great, Any danger of you posting the recipe up on the Christmas thread please, so a few of us can partake of the experience.
Di Brandy and Babycham ooooh yes I remember that one was scrummy and definately hit the parts that others couldn't reach lol.

Re: FMB Fanclub

CheeryB and Babycham - yummy.

Any kind of trifle - yummy

Trifle with booze in - major yummy. Last year I did orange cointreau trifle for OH, strawberry sherry trifle for the rest of us. Choc trifle sounds good, but dunno about the baileys, I've stuck a reminder for Tempty on the Xmas thread Sapphire.

Re: FMB Fanclub

Thanks for putting the reminder on Wendy hun, oooooooo organge cointreau trifle sounds yummy.

I did a Jamaican trifle a few years ago that was nice.
