minervasolo2000th journal entry!
Made mostly because of that, to be honest.
I've been dreaming loads recently. Mostly prosaic late-for-work and hanging-with-friends dreams, but there's a couple of corkers.
[Unknown site tag]Dream lasted about ten seconds. Three pigs are going into a club. They're trying to pay with credit cards (each has their own). All of the cards are declined. The bouncer returns the cards and gives each pig 3p change (a two pence and a one pence coin). He's short changing them, but then, their cards were declined. They go into the club.
Special way of cooking bacon. First, breath on your non-stick frying pan until there is a condensation mist on it. Lay your bacon on the mist. As it cooks, hold it flat with a spatula so it can't bubble or wrinkle at all. Take the yolk of an egg and spread it like butter on top. I dreamt this as instructions, but then I was walking down the road with raw bacon covered in raw egg yolk. I took a bite, and wished I had somewhere to cook it, because I didn't really want to carry it far.
I've had cooking dreams before. The last was spaghetti cooked in chocolate. I'm still resolved to try this some time. And the bacon, now.
I have made more tea punch: 700ml boiling water, 2 tspns tea, zest and flesh of 1 lemon, 300g sugar. Leave to infuse 20 minutes. Add 350ml brandy. Strain, bottle, drink. Mmmm.
If anyone's interested, there's another three versions of that, plus recipes for Chicken Tea Supreme and Early Grey Cream Teas on the writing blog. This month, I'm going to endeavour to come up with four chocolate recipes, at least one historical.
