Snowbound Menu...
It was only when editing Snowbound that I came to realise exactly how much food was in the damn thing. I can honestly say that the novel was not sponsored by Delicious Treats of England, but you can be forgiven for suspecting as much! I was all set to compile a list of Britishisms but I think most people are aware by now that we have mobile phones ( Read more... )
LOL. Sorry. I would be too but I just had my tea. Time for a cuppa and a cinnamon roll I think (which believe it or not, also feature at one point!)
Bacon butties are a thing of beauty. Yeah, I'd leave the L and the T off too, unless you're putting your bacon onto a toasted plain bagel in which case fried tomatoes on there are lovely.
There are gummy bears in Star Mix but the foamy sweets are the best. I sent some to a friend once and she was truly weirded out by the eggs. I think they're a German company but we seem to eat a lot of them over here and they do help a night shift along nicely.
Black and blood pudding are probably one and the same thing (WikiP seems to think so.) We're right up near the town of Bury which is famous for making them and rightly so as they do make a damn fine one. I guess it doesn't pay to be squeamish if you're going to eat one but then, I like haggis too so I certainly don't fall into the category of squeamish.
By the way, I love all these little tidbits you've been giving us! Now, I'm off to find some breakfast - even though it's 7:30 in the evening...
Aww, I'm glad. They're keeping me amused as well *g* Hope you found something decent for your um... breakfast!
