  • UPDATE:

    there was no campagnolo bread :shock:

    I didn't know they made bread. :wink:
    Seriously, though, I presume it's the Italian counterpart of 'pain de campagne'?

    Pretty much, it is made with olive oil and is yummy, not officially endorsed or bearing the campagnolo name though...

    Today I had red onion marmalade, smoked mozzarella with slow roasted onions and green tomatoes and marinaded artichoke hearts on ciabatta bread. And a double espresso latte and a bar of white chocolate with cinnamon in... I'm feeling like a fat piglet now...

    I vetoed the BEAN whatever the hell it was going to be for dinner tonight and just inhaled the smallest plate or roasted veg you've ever seen, revenge is a dish severed with BEANS.

    That too is a fine meal however Mrs ITB hates lamb and therefore we never have it so this is double special treat, I am very pleased.

    Beef curry, washed down with a Peroni. Chocolate cookies for dessert. Fan-bloomin'-tastic.

    Perfect diet for a double iron triathelete, yes?

    Today I will be mostly not eating as I'm really feeling pretty disgusted with my overdoing it in the last few days.

  • I'm not eating as much as I can bear to. Being unable to exercise over the christmas break is desperately un-fun, and I really don't want to become a fatty again!

    However, I've spent this morning making chicken liver pate... which (if i may say so myself) is very nice indeed.

    Luckily I need most of it for the beef wellington, so can't eat it. This afternoon I will mostly be making mince pies, while mother makes christmas cake.

    Argh!

    Livs, please explain the chicken liver paté/beef wellington juxtaposition? We also have wellington on Xmas day, and though my dad's is amazing I don't think chicken liver comes into it. I might be wrong, of course.

    Hmmm, well the beef wellington I'm used to has pate (check you out with your aigu - my laptop ain't playing) in it - take one fillet, add pate on the top, wrap in pastry and bake...

    And bought pate is not as nice as home-made!

    Whether or not it's usual to put chicken liver pate in it as opposed to pork liver, I don't know...

    Eureka!
    I have invented a fantastic new breakfast pick me up, weetabix soaked in Gin.

    Not recommended for children or those WITH jobs, weetabix can be substituted for oatibix.

    Having seen your post about the HOTA, I will mostly *not* be eating. For the rest of the weekend in fact.
