Oh I always jazz it up if I make it now.
My fave is cheese & Italian herbs, but that hardly makes it a low fat side.
Mostly because the 'rents aren't convinced by cornbread, so I have to eat most of it myself!

I 've made cornbread mini-muffins for the staffroom and they've gone down a treat.
Well, not as quickly as anything chocolate. Nothing is ever eaten as quickly as something with chocolate in, at my school.

Still, anything edible rasises my profile

I was just with some friends who had put banana peppers in some cornbread and some jalapenos in another batch. I don't like peppers, but they really enjoyed them.

I like corn in my cornbread. And cornbread casserole is the YUM.

grynch · 08-17-2011, 09:58 AM

OK... I know you're on a diet now but how do you feel about deep fried?

corn fritters............ pretty much the same mix as cornbread... little more flour, bit of baking powder and a tin of corn ... tablespoon at a time into the chip pan.. drizzle with honey.

ohhhh... .... thats got me going now... *L*

Sundae · 08-17-2011, 10:02 AM

Infi, I know banana peppers have nothing to do with bananas, but I still cringe reading it

Jalapenos in cornbread - esp with herbs and cheese - YUM!

I have no facility to deep fry anything, and I can't say it really appeals to me either.
I has 2 x doughnuts when we were in Great Yarmouth. Yumyum, hot doughnuts from a bag. But that's about it.

Mexican cornbread is da bomb. Try it sometime. BTW, I love the pics.

99% of baked beans here come in tins.

All supermarkets and many other companies have their own take on it; they are ubiquitous. Heinz is seen as the British staple, and if you holiday in coastal Spain you will often see cafes stating that they only serve Heinz beans.

I refuse to have cold toppings on my hot potato.
It's a personal issue.
But yes, tuna mayo is tinned tuna with mayonnaise. Sometimes with sweetcorn, sometimes with onion, mostly just tuna & mayo.

Also...a friend used to have a Staffordshire Terrier/Pit Bull mix named Razz. When he chased cars, he caught 'em. And ate 'em.

Gravdigr · 08-17-2011, 02:46 PM

I was thinking tuna-flavored mayo.

The self-stabbing story will be archived by now.

In any newspaper article where the "villian" is identified, any benefits received are usually exaggerated.
Typical rent in this town is £600 per month.
So an additional £200 per month has to pay for Council Tax, water rates, gas & electricity, TV licence even BEFORE food & cleaning products.
True, if he spends £70 on weed then something's got to give, but that's his choice.

No-one on benefits lives the hi-life.
Alcohol and drugs help ignore bills that need to be paid and things that need to be faced.

ANYWAY.
This is a photo thread and I want you all to ooooh and aaaaah and love me.
Sunshine and lollipos and rainbows etc etc......

(yeah, good points)

Great pics Sundae. Thanks.

Drumroll please...
I would like to introduce you to Messrs Tiger and Tennant!

I had permission to take photos of the children I saw at the Family Fun Day in Vale Park today.
After all, the organisers had their own photographers, and the Bucks Herald was there. But I was polite and checked with the parents anyway.

I went with Tennant's Mum, both Tiger's parents and his little sister (who we will call Kitty, because she's a kitten compared to him but it sounds a bit stripper-ish). We saw plenty of other people there - some children from our school (Tiger-Mum told a lot of people about it yesterday apparently) and my Grandad's ex-next-door-neighbour, who is Tiger's Grandmother. And one of Grandad's nurses, who is the mother of Tennant's mother's BFF from school.

I forget how many connections people make when they have children. This was pretty much my first exposure to it. Also it turns out Tiger-Grandmother used to live next door to my sister & family (not that side for those who remember) and Tiger-Dad came to do some repair plastering when the 'rents' bathroom flooded the downstairs toilet. Long before I moved back.

Small town. Never experienced that before either.

Anyway.
The parents parked at mine and we walked down to the Vale Park. Even with kids it's only about a 20 minute walk. The day was a joint event funded by a church coalition and the Council. Everything was free. There were some queues, but it was very well done.

Face painting, two bouncy castles, balloon modelling, sumo wrestling, BBQ (well, sausages and burgers on a grill) tea, coffee and cake, organised games. It was like being at Butlins in the 70s.

Tennant and Mum "making" a biscuit. Rich Tea biscuits (very plain cookies) with a shedload of icing, sweets, sprinkles etc to be lobbed on top. T gave me the "hair" which in my honour was a strawberry lace.

Tiger taking part in a sponge race. Run to the bucket, dunk your sponge, come back and squeeze it out in the bucket at the other end. Team with the most water wins, boys vs girls.

Sundae · 09-03-2011, 03:23 PM

Kitty with her painted face. That was the longest queue by far.
But the Lady wanted it, so the Lady got it! Good for her.

Tiger doesn't need face paint, he can growl at me anyway.
