We could pay you in Jammie Wagon Wheels

We've just had the Kitchen redone, with a big range cooker and a robot bin.

I made Sweet and Sour Chicken Balls with egg fried rice the other day, it was really good, just like you get in resturants (except the only tin of tomatoes I had were ones that had herbs in them, so there was a slightly herby after taste).

I want to try and invent a sweet, sour and spicy curry. I could call it the essential S's.

I think sugar, vinegar and chillis should do it. We could added it to the Loafers Nook Loafery Cook Book. Just like a cook book but more loafy, so lots of microwave recipes.



More insane ramblings by the people who brought you beeeer milkshakes!

Mmmm Jammie Wagon Wheels! I can't believe I couldn't find any for my brother. I hope he likes Jaffa cakes.

What's a robot bin?

A Loafer's Nook Loafy Cook Book sounds lovely, except I don't like microwaves.

I could add my 5 minute curry recipe. It's wicked easy. And it's dangerous; you have to pop mustard seeds and they tend to fly around the room at you. Very fun.

I really think we should start a loafers cook book. I like cooking and I always like to try new recipes, plus I've come up with a few of my own that I think are passable, least no one's died from eating them, least no one I didn't want to, yet...

A robot bin is one that opens when you wave at it (or walk past it sometimes) or press the buttons on top, and closes on its own.

To be honest I can see myself getting really annoyed with it, I think bins are one of those things that can be automated, but shouldn't be. Like volume controls, those volume controls that limit themselves so you can't go deaf really annoy me .

I noticed every single trash bin in the UK was one of those that you step on the thing at the bottom and the lid pops up. Those are nice, excet when they break and then you have to pry the lid open anyway.

A robot bin would get on my nerves. Like the automatic toilets that flush when you're still on them and you get all wet. I hate that.

Post some recipies, Citizen! We'll do a recipe exchange!

Pardon me, all, for jumping in here...

Cozen, I sent you a PM...I seem to have deleted the email you sent me, and I was trying to get in touch with you. Please email me when you get a chance! tristan71@cableone.net
I wasn't sure if I was supposed to email you or if you were going to email me about the coat...

Yeah they had them at Lloyds TSB when I was doing some work there, they flush when you sit down, flush if you sit back, flush if you sit foward, flush if you take a deep breath, flush if you reach for some toilet paper...

Useful though, when they go off it scares the s**t outta ya...

Oh look we've managed to bring the level of the conversion down to the toilet again :tonuge:.

I'll try and put some together, though the way I cook is to throw things in until they taste right ussually, so it's a compilation issue...

I can remember the Sweet and Sour though, so I'll type it up.

Apologies in advance for hijacking a "loafers'" thread with actual worky type stuff.

Assuming that this fine site's notification and symbiotic PMing attribute has yet again gone wonky, I hereby present to the internetty public my reply to Tristan's concerns regagarding my wish to order one of his shiny browncoats.

Quote:

Listen: I still want you to make me a shiny browncoat. Got myself all measured up by CMS and everything. It's just that I need to recover from the financial shock of returning from two conventions in far away lands (Atlanta and London, Eng.). Also, prepping for Xmas, which entails another x-country flight. Daughter requires a "loan" (BWA HAHA, ROFL, etc.) for the scuba gear necessary to facilitate her new major in marine biology, my hydro bill and property taxes are due... you get the drift. Gonna require a month or two's o/t to get past these expenditures.

But, I still want one of your browncoats, no fear. Once the chequebook & I agree to a compromise, your shiny product is next up on my personal indulgences list.

Cheers,
{cozen}




***
See? Now I'm publically committed!

Thank you, Cozen, for that! I also apologize for the hijack...this will be (hopefully) the last "work" post I make here.
No problem at all; no rush. I just wanted to be sure that you did not think I was ignoring you if, in fact, I was supposed to get in touch with you...sorry, I freak easily when it comes to stuff like this. Just let me know when you are ready!

And now, I'll just let myself out...

LOL!

Very funny.

I cook the same way. My sister, when first married, used to call me and ask for recipies and I'd say "Grate some parmesean and add it to the ricotta" and she'd say "How much?" and I'd say "Until it tastes good" and she'd go "AAAAAAAAAARGHHHHH!!!!"

But she's learned better now.

Or, you can stay and loaf.

It's very comfy here. Squishy floors.

Ooh Loafers Loafy Cook Book good idea!

Yes, I can bake. (sort of) Try not to faint.

Not so much with the cooking, but I can make a mean dessert. I've got some yummy cake and brownie recipies I could add.

The Loafers Loafy Nook Cook Book could be the next big internet sensation.

Yes it could be! Except we'd all have to stop the loafing to make the book. Maybe we could all type up the recipies and hand them over to someone a little less aflicted with the loafish-ness (which is not a word, but I like it!)
