G'morning.
I'm getting sick and tired in the news being covered in economics, I know it probably isn't but it feels like a big stupid game the only winners of which are economists, bankers and other sundry cunts. Somebody somewhere, probably china is owed one hell of a lot of money, so why don't we just declare them the winners and get on with life.

Alt: Nepalese in my experience.

There's a Nepalese restaurant in Winchester.
My mother loves it. Unfortunately, it is completely shit. There's a korma-type dish that's so sweet and bland they actually serve it with a glace cherry on top. This is, in my opinion, them taking the piss.

I'm sure the food in Nepal is probably fine, mind.

I had to agree with Gonz's evaluation of Keith Floyd the other day.
I don't necessarily agree with him all the way on the subject, but the repeated clip from the 70's on Saturday morning didn't inspire me to go off and try to replicate the recipe. When it came out the oven it looked like he'd just shat in a pot and left it on a low heat for 12 hours.

I saw some fireworks too Quentin !
There was PHZZZZZITers and WOOOOSHers and BANGers and Screamers. I think there was about 60% yellow, 20% blue and 15% red and 5% red, ovbously in verious hues. I had a can of Malabu and Coke, a Blue flavoured WKD and I was going to make some mulled wine but I didn't bother in the end. I also had some not-so-pink candyfloss in a bag and a burger with ketchup, fake mustard and fried onions. OOHHOHOHOH, I walked past a cupcake shop where I had a cup filled with custard and a treekle cupcake, really nice, I walked out without paying, got half way down the road when they ran after me, didn't realise, was talking to them for 5 minutes and forgot, honest mistake, so they gave me a cherry cupcake. They have a facebook and flickr page, they want a website that I can help with, might be a bit of private work. I'd like to make a cupcake website. I wanted to buy some of those plastic things with coloured lights in but I couldn't find the stall on the way home. I went into ASDA yesterday and they had christmas lights, i'm not too sure if I should buy some, because I'm moving home soon, and it'll be another thing to pack away. I think when I'm in my new place though, I can decorate it with some lights and tinssle and christmas tree. True story, I've had some christmas lights up for 2 years now.

I am gooooooooood.
I get my results this week so a bit nervous, but all in all, I'm good!

Don't let Mundane Mondays get you all stroppy. Save the strop for something that matters, like the chippy forgetting to put the vinegar on your chips.

much as italian food is awesome
it is always the very last type i would choose for going out, because you just get so used to it.

i would always pick something middle eastern or greek, i love houmous and yoghurt/shallot dips and haloumi and vegetables and charcoal grilled fish and rice.... the greek near me - where berk has been too! - does this spicy feta cheese chunky dip that would make anyone cream themselves.

Anyone? Even someone who doesn't particularly care for Feta?

if there is anyone who doesn't care for feta
then i wouldn't care for them, and so their opinion would be not worth the screen it was typed on.

I've always found it a little too greasy tasting for my liking
And yes, I'm aware that takeaways, etc are all greasy, but I don't expect my cheese to be.

It's a bit of a shame really, a veggie friend of mine made quite a nice spaghetti dish with it, but the taste was just so cloying I couldn't finish it
It needed some lemon juice or something, just to lighten the taste a little.

so basically
your friend bothered to cook for you, and you threw it back in her face.

Not at all, I thoroughly enjoyed it, where I could
But by the end of it, the taste was just a bit too strong. She admitted that many found this to be the case, but that she as she liked it, she was a bit wary about making any changes.

It was a very simple dish, simply spaghetti, with stirred in feta, black pepper, halved cherry tomatoes and garlic.

That's a shame
as I regard it as one of the shittest cheeses. It's even worse than edam.

Well, I wouldn't rate any cheese that's made backwards.

oh monty no!
no no no, feta is amazing. esp when warm. i like the waitrose feta and caramelised onion pizza... or the fire and stone one, which is cubes of warm, gooey, tangy feta drizzled with pesto...

As do I, within reason.
I went on a tour of classical sites in Greece during my 6th form and was fed those feta samosa things every fucking day, and was put off for life by this experience.

understandable
i can't bear breakfast for the same reason - 3 weeks of massive breakfasts and then a long car ride in the states means that i can very seldom stomach anything before about 12pm!

There is a place near work called Meze Meze which does a haloomi wrap (or falaffle, or chicken'n'spicy turkish sausage) wraps with taboooleh and houmas.... £3.90, freshly toasted, AMAZING tasting flat bread.
Well nice, it's my latest 'thing'. And they do a small pot of couscous with really nice flavouring stuff.

Today I'm having left over home-assembled pizza.
