Made from scratch Pizza
Just finished eating this so thought I'd share
Made from scratch
Started at 2pm when I made the dough using bread flour 250g a packet of dried yeast 1Tablespoon of olive oil 150ml of warm water 1tsp salt 1tsp sugar
Topping was pizza sauce made with a small tn of chopped tomato/ olive oil / black pepper / Italian seasoning
Extra mature cheddar cheese
Smoked Bacon which I pre cooked to get rid of the fat
Polish sausage
Handful of frozen peppers
10mins at 220c
Also to get a cooked base I lay it on baking sheet and put it on top the hob so the underneath browns
It was in my opinion really good tasting

Double Pie & Mash, Tony’s, Waltham Abbey - £9.80
With lashings of chilli vinegar and a cup of orange squash, also had school cake and custard. Safe to say I’m spending the rest of the day horizontal (the pies come this way up at Tony’s, but have had them come upside down at other places). Really enjoyed this. Would recommend!

Heinz Spaghetti Carbonara
The tangle of over-cooked noodles, once warmed, resembles some kind of I’m a Celebrity worm-eating challenge, floating in a pool of deeply unpleasant cytoplasm, masquerading as carbonara sauce. The pancetta — billed as “crispy” on the tin — emerges from the quagmire as tiny, chewy, salty pellets of floating rat droppings in this otherwise aggressively beige excuse for pasta.
I'm thinking they didn't like it lol.

Does anyone actually like fortune cookies?
Does anyone actually like fortune cookies?
I had a Chinese takeway a couple of days ago, and with my order, I was given a fortune cookie. I normally don't bother with them but I found the fortune cookie today in the cupboard, must have put it there by mistake, and thought "why not, may as well" so I had it.
It was dry, bland and all around unsatisfying.
It opens a lot of questions for me.
Does anyone actually like them? What's the point of them? Why do our fine Chinese eateries dispense them so freely and without asking? How much do they cost the Chinese takeaway?
Would our Chinese food be slightly cheaper if they did not give out fortune cookies?
Who writes the wee messages?
Why do I only get them sometimes and, most importantly.
Has anyone ever had a nice one?
