Nominating myself... Tripped over the electric car charging cable (smashing a bottle of Margaux in the process) and poked a rib on the pedal of a steel framed hardtail this evening. Dry January has GTF as I guzzle Laphroaig whilst bemoaning the Tories after being told that there is 7 HR wait at A&E. To add insult to injury my Birkenstocks are soaked in Médoc.

finding it surprisingly difficult to slice a sourdough loaf

Haha ffs.
The other week in hospital maternity ward, couple in a neighbouring cubicle next to us, the dad said “he’s got sourdough crumbs all in his neck!”. Made a mental note to post it here and forgot

'Mummy, I want a brioche'

Lordship Lane, East Dulwich

Brioche costs about £1.20 for 6

It’s not the 80s brioche isn’t some form of outlandish exoticism, what’s the kid sposed to ask for…a lambert & butler?

Hmm, maybe it's generational.

I don't reckon I knew what a brioche was until I was about 23

Four Yorkshiremen sketch intensifies

6 for £1 in lidl

Now as a fully paid up member of the wokerati I had brioche as a kid in the 80s
But my parents were into all kinds of wild shit.

Never had a crisp sandwich or chip butty though

Horses for courses

How about a fish finger, or sugar sandwich?

EDIT Have you never put your crisps inside a sandwich that you made.

There are kids in my 6-yr old's class bring olives to school. What a world.

Why didn't you call Childline?

I’m such snob that I think eating a crisp sandwich is basically an admission of utter failure akin to just taking a shit on yourself on the street. To me it would be a white flag and a red flag at the same time.

Fish finger sandwiches are good eating however

Why didn't you call Childline?

I know right? It wasn’t invented. I had to beg my parents for findus crispy pancakes

Steak bake

...my toddlers bloody love an artisanal olive. It's about as close as we get to vegetables.

May as well post directly into the thread.

Avocado Baby is a firm favourite in our household but, thinking back, when I read it as a child I had no idea what an avocado pear was.

Ah the lava hot inner and not so great outer thing. Looks better on the box.

Oh and I bet your fish finger sandwich was those posh non white fish more crispy outer than inner fish.

To the golf club thread...in 5

Nah I like my fishfingers store brand and overcooked like non-specific fish-jerky

Steak bake

Poo pie not nice

I lament the old greggs “cheese and bacon savoury”

Maybe I should go over to the conspiracy theory thread but where have all the tear and share brioche loaves gone? Makes you think

V good
