    Just to warm myself up tonight I'm doing a chilli. I've used a mix of crushed tomatoes and cold coffee for the liquid. I'll let you know how it works out.
    Of course it'll fit, you just need a bigger hammer.

    It turned out very well. I had to thicken it slightly, but it was incredibly tasty. - Makes a change from adding chocolate.

    I've got a soda loaf cooking at the moment, I've used grapefruit juice as the acid agent. - Fingers crossed!

    The soda loaf was incredible! I'll be using that recipe again.

    I fancy faggots, mushy peas and chips, Margaret. - And there's nobody to stop me!

    Merry Christmas.

    Margaret,

    I intend to spend the day on my own, with my CDs and the cat for company. The answerphone will be on and the door will not be answered!

    A couple in the next street has gotten it into their heads that it's about time I became attached again and keep inviting me to parties where there are unattached women. They have requested my presence tomorrow evening. - I won't be going!

    Everything in the chicken stew today!

    Then some puds with ice cream or custard.

    I changed my mind about Christmas day. I did a Fray Bentos Steak and Kidney pie, Mash and mushy peas. - I have to say that I really enjoyed it.

    Scrambled eggs on toast for today after yesterday's 'blow-out'!

    Roll on tomorrow when I can get an afternoon pint in peace!

    Very nice! I didn't think Fray Bentos still did pies. I don't like kidney though.

    Margaret,

    They still do a whole range, including cheese and vegan (I think). I refuse to buy them at full price (£2) but when they're discounted I'll get a few in.

    I see Fray Bentos was taken over by a Scottish firm called, Baxters in 2011.

    I quite like Baxters products.

    They're an interesting company to look at, they have quite a history. - They also seem to be quite healthy financially.
