Nostalgia - The Joys of English Food - Not an oxymoron for me - A Father's day treat? Black pudding - made from congealed pigs blood and lumps of fat encased in an intestine - mouthwatering! I don't know what is happening to me this week but I have this huge hanckering for the food of my childhood. I have just polished off half a bar of Cabury's milk chocolate. It is father's day on Sunday and my daughter Hope has asked me what I want. I want the great English breakfast. Ideally this will include - black pudding, sausages, bacon, fried mushrooms, baked beans, fried tomatoes, fried bread and three fried eggs - PLUS English toast (Superstore has it) served cold with lots of butter spread thickly on it with Robin's home made marmalade. I am lucky that my chloresterol is off the scale low. I think that I will have a single malt now and contemplate Sunday morning. 9:17:31 PM    comment []

Winnie the Pooh - A PEI Controversy A huge debate has broken out among PEI bloggers on Winnie the Pooh. The resounding view here - we are very old fashioned - is that the Disney Pooh sucks. We find him smarmy and cute while the real Milne/Shepard Pooh is such a nice chap who is modest and deeply funny as are his wonderful archetypal friends. What do you think? By the way, a bit of Rob useless knowledge. Did you know that Brian Jones (Rolling Stones) bought Milne's house and might have been murdered in the pool? 8:43:46 PM    comment []
