Fine Dining

[Hombre]

I have just spent a not inconsiderable time in the kitchen preparing lunch for me and the love of my life. I drew on all past experiences and advice received by numerable chefs I have worked with down the years. I also allowed my natural talent for creating fine cuisine to permeate into the culinary proceedings.
Mrs H informed me that my "Beans on jacket potato...interspaced with delicate splodges of HP sauce " was of Michelin standard. I feel so proud, my chest is heaving.
Does anyone else have special meals that they create and have their trademark "signature" ?

My kids love it when I cook a proper "fry-up" a good old fashioned english breakfast with sausages, bacon, eggs, mushrooms tomatoes And as a special treat fried bread!!! Cos I follow the Atkins diet we're allowed fried food, cos its not bad for you!!!!

No, that must have been a different one, Dr Atkins who deviced the diet was a cardiologist who died when he slipped on ice in NewYork!! I think the lady who invented slimmingworld has serious heart and weight problems tho??

Trust me, the Atkins diet has totally transformed my life, before I started it 7 years ago I was an 18stone lump with type 2 diabetes, excema, arthritus and IBS

Yes, well I have the habit of baking for therapy! it makes me feel calm and relaxed and I love getting my elbows into a bowl of flour and fat!!! therefore my signature dishes are meat and potatoe pies! when I have a pie fest my OH goes into raptures! he loves ´´em .... but given his cholestrol levels and mild stroke a couple of years ago I do limit his consumption! .... also he has a childhood craving for home made cheese straws! so when Im feeling particularly wifey I get the mixing bowl out and make him a batch! I know how to look after a man! lol
