Oh dear god...I haven't had that in years!

That's terrible - Mind you, they're pretty hard to find outside of Preston.

True!

I grew up on the other side of the Pennines to you but back then I had a close friend from your part of the world. Her mum cooked all kinds of delights!

Well - I'm a funny one. I'm kind of like a Janissary - My blood relatives are all from Doncaster and the surrounding area, but I was raised by Lancastrians - One of the reasons why the quickest way to incapacitate me used to be to ask "Where are you from?" and watch me go into fugue state

Still - could be worse. I might have grown up in Jellied Eel territory

I know exactly what you mean. I was born in Hackney (making me a true cockney) raised near York by a fellow Londoner and a South African and now I live in Scandinavia!

whispers

Regardless of where I was born, I don't do jellied eels!

 

[Scuttle Buttin']

Jellied eels?

I just..

What is happening in here?

Yeah - Nor I - so I guess I shouldn't cast aspersions - they might be delicious after all. You know one place they come from is the Ribble....

On the subject of food you can't believe is food, I guess you'll know about this stuff..

 

[Scuttle Buttin']

Holy Moses.

 

[Bert_Fegg]

German food critic and author Wolfgang Fassbender wrote that "the biggest challenge when eating surströmming is to vomit only after the first bite, as opposed to before."

I laughed at that...

 

[StarryEyed665]

*bursts into the room, grinning wildly, wondering what cornucopia of delicious treats await her this time-*

Woah. Wha-what is all this!

 

[Britwitch]

While there are many fish dishes in this part of the world that I can just about consume (am not a huge fish fan to be honest) surströmming is not one that will ever enter my house, never mind my mouth!

feels ill just thinking about it

 

[Niceandbrutal]

Not all us scandinavians are fond of fermented fish.

[Bert_Fegg]

The surprising thing is that anyone is - Or for that matter who on earth took the first bite?

Yeah - The cornerstone of a nutritious breakfast..... *backs away from the table*

Serve ½ head per person


Serve ½ head per person


Serve ½ head per person


WHY IS THAT A SENTENCE

 

[Niceandbrutal]

Heeheehee! Because us scandinavians looove grotesque food.

 

[Britwitch]

just laughs

I'm not sure why, but I laughed quite hard at this - That's quite a talent you have there

nudges this towards Starry

and offers a hug

It's alright. The bad food's gone now.

 

[Bert_Fegg]

*swipes the skillet and tucks in*

This is utterly delicious - what is it?

 

[StarryEyed665]

Oh my God, that is so much better. *cries into Brit's arms whilst scoffing down the delectable dessert. Then stealthily steals her bunny ears*

 

[thestruggle]

yawning, carries in a tray with various breakfast offerings. blows a kiss to the prettiest Witch and waves to everyone else.

Still pretty early around here, early enough for breakfast anyway. How's everything for you all?

I believe a form of cookie cake.

nods knowingly

Oh my God, that is so much better. *cries into Brit's arms whilst scoffing down the delectable dessert. Then stealthily steals her bunny ears*

Always happy to help.

giggles at the theft of her bunny ears while helping Starry set them on her head, before producing another pair to put back on her own head

nibbles some fruit and blows a kiss to the lovely Tess with a wink

That all looks amazingly yummy, and considerably healthier than my offering!

laughs ruefully.

I actually had the post mostly typed out when you posted yours and then I got distracted for a second. I'd actually much prefer a pan full of chocolate chip cookie bars. Anything to bolster for a day of digging in the dirt.
