I have to say I really like the design on the bottle :D

 And I just had myself and bacon and cheese sammich with a cup of tea as a reward for finally getting an essay about whether Hobbes' theory proves breaking the law is foolish... well, that and I hadn't had anything to eat all day so I was goddamn hungry when I got back home :P

hahaha yeah its pretty cool aiint it?

i just made the dopest sandwhich. fried an egg with salami on both sides and put chicken with it after then melted provalone cheese on it. mmmmmmmmm trans fat 

Just steamed some pork potstickers and baked some pork eggrolls. Heaven I tell ya... :D

At the bf's currently, yesterday we had another on of those pizzas topped with duck and spring onion, forget the sauce had a bit of a kick to it, was awesome, oh and we had a raspberry cheesecake for dessert :P

And earlier today we went out to the noodle place we liked and shared pork dumpling and ramen noodle soup, which was delicious, we plan to have a beef shin and ramen noodle soup next time we find ourselves there. Later tonight (which considering the time, probably won't be too long) we're having a 'double pepperoni' pizza as it says on the box (with a side of curly fries!).

And last, but not least I appear to have been drinking bottles of mountain dew energy this all this weekend, although there was a six pack of smaller bottles for cheaper, so I'm not arguing. :P

Bugers with a fried egg as a topping is an amazing innovation. As we all know, the more unhealthy, the more delicious it is! :P

Was it for 12/12/12? dancingbeatle

Part of me wants to say yes, it was a marketing thing. However, this particular DQ does this event every once in a while.

Came across a recipe for a vegan friendly hot chocolate (topped with peppermint cream!) that sounds pretty interestingrocketfox129

I stopped at the word vegan. I'm sure there is potential for it to be good, but that word is not my friend. :lol:

I don't see why, it just means the ingredients wouldn't involve anything anything from an animal. Whilst I'm not a vegan myself, I've had plenty drinks and foods that could be classed as vegan-friendly that have been pretty nice :P

To add more detail to my initial post, it came from a blog of the fashion label Drop Dead, which has several contributors, one of them being this woman called Koko who also contributes the occasional recipe to another blog and has her own site, being a vegetarian herself, all her recipes are generally vegetarian and vegan in nature, with some of them also coming under a raw foods diet.

Reading the recipe, the only thing really that makes the hot chocolate vegan friendly is that the milk for said chocolate and cream topping comes from coconuts rather than any animal milk. The peppermint cream also involves some sort of almond cream too. :P

Here's the blog entry if you (or anyone else for that matter) fancies giving it a look in. :P

So had random inspiration to whip up an omlette consisting of chorizo and red onion. Also decided to add a little bit of chilli to the egg mix, alongside my usual salt and pepper. I did not expect it to taste so delicious, oh yes. I also had some toast on the side and some bubble tea I bought at a local asian shop to wash it down with.

Apologies for the double post. :P

My new job has a 'Bon Appetit' cafeteria that features all sorts of places to eat (similar to a food court at a shopping mall). It's easier than fetching a lunch to work in the morning, albiet can be more expensive.

I think this week I had (twice) a giant plate of nachos from the Mexican location, a rather delicious Philly Cheese Steak sandwhich, and yesterday, a giant plate of Chinese food with fresh Oyester Sauce chicken wings.

I Love my new Job!!! :cool:

I wonder if soy milk could be subbed instead. dancingbeatle

Silk Soymilk is really good. I like the Very Vanilla flavor.

Well, to phrase it the more fancy way you sometimes see from critics and stuff, the last thing I had to eat was last night which was...

Fusili pasta topped with diced chicken breast smothered in bolognese sauce, with some dashes of chilli powder, pepper and mixed herbs for extra flavour.

Afterwards I enjoyed a nice cup of standard english tea, with a pinch of hot chocolate powder, as I find it's sweetness to be quite the compliment to the more earthier flavour of the tea.

:P

That....that sounds amazing! Tonight's dinner for me is fried chicken doused in hot sauce, followed by whatever sides I have available. Beverage of choice may be a seasonal Ale, or maybe I'll stick to a classic Coke.

Well my bf served me the same sorta thing at his over the weekend, so I thought I'd give it a go since it was a change from the mince I usually use to go with pasta, it goes really nicely actually. Had the same tonight but with a bit of extra chilli powder and pepper than before, got a nice kick this time around without taking away any of the flavour

I had an amazing Cuban Panini for lunch. Not sure what was inside but it was pretty darn good!

I've had samosas like hat, no idea what exactly what was in them but they tasted great :P

Samosas are great, I agree. Being West Indian, I've had too much exposure to them. :P

I used to be real picky, but the past couple years has rather broadened my experiences with food, most definitely for the better, having found stuff I like that a little longer ago I probably wouldn't have even considered trying :D

Although last thing I had was more closer to home, cooked myself and the bf just some standard fish and chips last night, then afterwards we washed it all down with a few glasses of vodka and cola :P

Grocery Shopping when hungry = very bad idea.

I almost walked away with $40 worth of different Bertolli frozen pastas... :oops:
