@ZackB Thank you, sir! It was lovely.

Cottage pie? Shepherds pie?

[Alex]

Cottage, yeah

But of a stormy day called for some comfort

[seawolf]

@Alex looks fab. Paring it with some red?

[Alex]

Was a boring tea pairing yesterday. Broke a toe/my foot this week, so keeping extra inflammatorys away whilst im unable to rest it with the office move

[endo]

[Alex]

@endo thanks, Doc

[Tago Mago]

@Alex hoping for a quick recovery

[ROman]

@Alex Best of luck with your toe and foot. Hope your better soon.

@Alex oh man broken toes are no joke. Hope it heals quickly and doesn’t cause you too much trouble.

We have a theme dinner party tomorrow at our friends’. Part ipants bring dishes according to a theme. The theme tomorrow is mint, so I made home made mint chocolare chips ice cream, with the mint from our yards. It’s yummy. Making the chocolate chips was more difficult than I expected…

[seawolf]

@JDelage heck yeah! That looks amazing. Can’t wait to hear about the other dishes people bring.

[JDelage]

I’m also bringing a peach / mint salad. There will be lambchops and a mint anaro cocktail…

[seawolf]

@JDelage peach and mint sounds amazing. Is there some lime juice in there as well?

[JDelage]

No, it has a balsamic / honey reduction with sumac, but I've seen some recipes online for similar salads that do incorporate lime.

[seawolf]

@JDelage that sounds lovely!

[Alex]

Sumac such a great replacement for citrus. I wonder how ground dried black lime would work too

[seawolf]

Ever head of or seen finger limes? They have such an interesting presence.

[Alex]

@seawolf yeah, they grow them on Kira's island in the bahamas, we use them on sushi and in salads kind of like tobiko vibes, but surprising flavour

[seawolf]

@Alex They're fun! I've used them for all sorts of things. Anywhere you might use lime can benefit from finger lime "caviar."
