at the start of this thread i promised that if the topic took off i would create an Iron Heart cookbook from the contributions

well - imo the thread has been a great success and so a huge thanks for all the fantastic contributions to date (please, please keep 'em coming!); so . . . here are the beginnings of how i am imagining the e-book might take shape (thinking along the lines of retro lookbook rather than actual recipe book):

Inside Cover

Sample page (in progress)

thanks to Simon for the burger pic and a certain crazy Kat for another type of inspiration 

these are downsampled works in progress, but just wanted to let you see i'll keep my promise since you contributed so wonderfully well (and shamed me since i've hardly done any cooking recently . . . to be remedied  ;))

comments/ideas would be very welcome

[rocket]

very very cool… make me really looking forward to see the final thing

[Giles]

I LOVE the Kat cover…...............

[Geo]

His expression is priceless!

[injunjack]

Since this weekend it's really crowded in the area where I live because of the 1st of may festivities and I hate it, I've stocked up on food and drink and movies and am spending all weekend locked up inside. All the streets and parks are absolutely packed with drunken people who basically just behave like pigs (sorry Seul). But I'm nice and cosy inside and that's what matters!

I decided to make some north african/arabian inspired food today:

Pita bread
Chicken patties with north-african spices (coriander, jeera, sesame, almonds etc.)
Lentil-spinach salad
Aubergine paste
Hoummous
Yoghurt sauce

Asolutely superb if I say so myself! These recipes will be added to my favorite recipe book!

[injunjack]

Looks real good, and Jii, I feel ya, I'd hate to live in the middle of those drunkards…I have similar plans like you.

[Jii]

Yeah, it's bad now but it was a complete nightmare when I had my dog. The streets are basically covered in broken bottles and piss and random junk so I couldn't even walk him properly. Even though I absolutely love living here these two days are a bit too much. Better that way though. Hauskaa vappua!

[injunjack]

Hauskaa Vappua vaan sinnekkin, ja muille Suomipojille…
just nyt täällä sataa kaatamalla

[rocket]

the rain might resolve your drunken people around problem somewhat 

[injunjack]

so Rocket you speak finnish, or have you planted cameras here like Beats did to Geo?

Should I get paranoid?

[rocket]

maybe

lets say modern technology is sometimes handy…

[injunjack]

starts to look around hidden cameras or suspicious new stuff that wasn't here a while ago

[rocket]

btw I had the chance some time back to visit a company that is one of the world leaders in spy tech stuff and got some inside look and you would never find these cams etc. without tech equipment or pure luck, unbelieveable…

[rocket]

and Jii, looks really tasty!
