I have just eaten, with a degree of pleasure, a homemade root vegetable pie. It consisted of parsnip, swede, carrot, potato and onions/garlic/bit of thyme, salt and pepper for seasoning. I cheated with the pie crust and used ready made pastry but it is not bad stuff. Served with a little English mustard, dash of soy sauce (no Henderson's relish), a few slices of my fantastic rustic wholemeal/white bread. I washed it down with a glass of Lindemans Shiraz 2009 which was pretty standard red (though I'm not complaining at all as it was a gift, free wine is free wine).
I was pretty full after so I didn't bother with a dessert or anything apart from nibbling a few pieces of Lindt Swiss Classic Milk Chocolate, which I must say tasted pretty lame, I do like the Lindt extra creamy though, never mind.
Later I am going to partake of some more delicious ciders, I hope I have some Henney's dry cider left as it is yummy stuff.* Later I might slice of the end of a new loaf that is due to go in tonight as I usually can't resist doing so, we'll see.
* Yes, there is a bottle of this left, to be savoured first or had last? Decisions, decisions...

Harvest Chedder Sun Chips. Too salty, imho.

A slice of (leftover) birthday cake and tea.

I am having a ludicrously late dinner - a beef stroganoff concoction I'd promised myself five hours ago. The red wine used was a cheap shiraz but not too bad for the purpose.
The meat is the tenderest sirloin I think I've ever tasted
This isn't the traditional strog, but based on the award winning recipe of the famous chef Jaques 'Frenchy' Knuckles of the Hotel Ritz in 1972
A hamfisted and belligerent cook at the best of times, it has often been debated whether the award was won fairly or if he'd had some 'help' obtaining the judges' agreement, for after all, surely William 'Bones' McDougle's Fried Cream Pumpkin and Cheese Soufle has seen a far more loyal following in the years since, and Deklan 'Loco' Jusghlien's Spicy Mushroom Paella Flambe which has spawned a revival in recent years (most notably at the Waldorf Astoria - home and birthplace of none other than the famous Waldorf Salad)
Then I'm going to have a bowl of vanilla and chocolate chip icecream in chocolate sauce with fresh strawberries

Propel (flavored water drink) and was eating a mint earlier.

Ramen with peas and dark chocolate

Just gnawed the arms off of a giant green gummy bear and am working on a glass of cranberry juice.

Lol
Hot chocolate followed by frito chili pie. Yum.

I had a super caffeinated latte a bit ago :) It was cinnamon from Starbucks.

I'm drinking both coffe and cola :)

An intensely strong icecoffee - but the ice cream is something else! It's chocolate with milkchocolate chunks (not big chips - CHUNKS) and alone it is great but the synergy of all three together is amazing
