sparkindarknessAnd there is so much meat in the house it is almost scary..... HMMMMMMMM meat!
I have 5 different marinades for chicken, I have ribs and kebabs and burgers and kebabs and sausages and kebabs and more sausages and we have pork chops and lamb steaks and kebabs and I've just put the bread dough in the oven for making burger buns and we have peppers and corn on the cob.
Oh and salad. For some reason. Oh and pickles and salad dressing and more dressing. Ah salad makes sense now.
Oh and we have kegs and bottles and glasses and mixers so enough booze to kill a large rhinoceros
So, have food, salad, booze and disapproving relatives.
Wait, disapproving relatives?
Apparently it being Good Friday, I am supposed to eat fish. It's apparently a rule. And apparently adding prawns to the BBQ does not count..
I'm not Christian and I don't think all non-Catholics (or even all Catholics) follow this anyway so I am bewildered at their need to enforce some kind of religious prohibition on my menu. The counter-argument was that it's “tradition” yeah, it's Christian tradition, not mine – and perhaps tradition because we WERE a fishing port and the reason people ate fish every Friday was because it was the end of the damn week and it was CHEAP. It was the food you ate when you were down to your last pennies – and now fish costs waaay more than the lovely animal corpses. Hmmmmm dead coo-beastie *drool*
Anyway, apparently it's bad and wrong. Pfft, the same traditions say I'm bad and wrong so I may as well eat whatever the hell I want to eat. Now pass the lovely lovely chickens, Beloved has to burn the outside and lightly warm the inside to create a perfect salmonella filling.
And it's SUNNY! Normally the weather drops rain, sleet, hail, snow and canned fish on us every time we try to BBQ.
IT IS A SIGN! My BBQ is officially approved of. So there.
(Still haven't forgiven Beloved. Even if it was on sale and didn't cost £500 but cost £280. STILL NOT OK!)
oooh boooze. See you later, well, assuming I can reach the keyboard. Booze + food poisoning suggests no.
Also, I should probably get dressed.
