I LOVE Spotted Dick with custard! It reminds me of school dinner, though the main course was shit, the desserts where always worth ploughing through them. Yum. Treacle Pudding....delish!

The right way to make a Bacon Butty I think the conversation was, wasn't it Loopy Girl?

That's one of the reasons WHY I hate Spotted Dick so much - Sister Mary Ann would make me sit in the dining hall until I finished eating, and if I went to the toilet to be sick/spit it out etc she would give me a second portion of it. 
I swear that woman was telepathic or had a secret camera in her Habit. 
She knew everything you did before you even did it. 

Treacle Pudding on the other hand - yum, shame I can't eat it though as the sugar make me hyperactive. 

Yep, the convo hun. Did we ever get to the bottom of the right way to make a bacon butty?   

I gotta say that with the phrases like treacle pudding, spotted dick and butties it makes me wish my great grandma, who was born in England would have lived long enough for me to get to know her.

Honestly? All those juicy currants and raisins? Yum, I HAVE to remember to get one from M&S tomorrow....Hey do you think our convent education turned us into the 'no trigger, angstHoor' we are? 

I think we came to the conclusion that it was a personal preference; personally I spread the ketchup on the bread that way I get some in every bite and I'm more a sausage butty than Bacon girl but either way the ketchup goes on the bread.

You guys are cracking me up...  I'm wondering if we have any food names that you guys find as hilarious as I find spotted dick and bacon butties!   And I'm just going to be honest... I thought Treacle Pudding was something made up by JK Rowling for the Harry Potter book!   Is it yum?  I hope there isn't spotted dick in it! 

 

I can't think of anything....meat-loaf? Maybe? Not hilarious, but odd...Collard Greens? And that is more the spelling, that I don't get...

Yep! As Loopy Girl posted Treacle Pudding is delish....I think most people who attended an English school (pre Jamie Oliver) got a taste of Treacle pud.

So, you can buy spotted dick on Amazon. I then found a combo of spotted dick and cock soup. Two different items sold together. Though really? I don't think you would eat them together. The cock soup is Jamaican.

There is a Goodreads review too. It has pretty high ratings.

Demaris - to me Collard Greens would be odd - I think of it more Southern United States.  But meatloaf - what's so odd about meatloaf?  I loved my mother's - I don't live there anymore obviously so its been awhile since I've had good meatloaf.  I need to talk a friend into going to Friendly's Ice Cream - they've changed their menu again - I'm curious about how good their mealoaf is but I'm not going to admit that to her.   If I was into cooking, I'd make it myself but I'm lazy.  Same with my mother's salmon loaf - its heaven on earth.

That's another reason why I dont like SD - raisins and currants. 
Lol, that's what I reckon hun. I lost count of how many times a Nun hit me with a ruler or tried to traumatise in some way or another, so now I'm so immune to stuff it doesn't bother me at all.   

I was gonna make an innuendo on the sausage butty comment, but I won't. 
Anyhoo, ketchup makes a sarnie so you gotta have that.

I thought it might of been about some type of cannibalism that's why I clicked the link. 
I don't think it helps that I'm watching a documentary on John Wayne Bobbitt. 

On a side note: I've lost my hubby to golf. 
He was suppose to come home tonight from watching the Ryder Cup in Gleneagles in Scotland but it turns out that all of his brothers, his Dad and himself have drunk too much celebrating so they won't be home until some tomorrrow - typical I sent the kids to my parents so we could have the house to ourselves now I'm on my own, which can only been trouble for myself I'm sure. 

That looks pretty good. The one thing I remember my mom made when I was growing up was Yorkshire pudding, which I am total is a British recipe. My husband had never had it before he got with me and loved it. I still make it on occasion if we are having roast beef.

I FLOVE Yorkshire Puds especially with a lovely Sunday roast.
I'm drooling now thinking of them. 

Lol, I seriously can't stop laughing at the idea of JK Rowling making Treacle Pudding up like it was another phrase for a spell or just a random dish she thought they might eat at Hogwarts. 
It's gorgeous but it can be incredible sweet.

Treacle Pudding:


Basically it's a an upside down sponge cake with Treacle Syrup over it and in the mixture as well, but you can also swap the Treacle in the mixture for Ginger to make Ginger Treacle Pudding.

I always forget your puddings are actually types of cake rather than what we call pudding (a milk based flavored custard thing) 

My great-grandmother used to make Yorkshire pudding for her Christmas Eve dinner(also known as supper) for however many relatives were able to make it to her house for Christmas Eve.   Nana was German, my great-grandfather's parents were both English - I think he was born in the States.   I don't know anybody in the family who makes Yorkshire pudding anymore (bread pudding yes - and yum) - another family tradition gone to hell in a handbasket along with Christmas Eve.    John Wayne Bobbitt - now there's a name I haven't heard for awhile.  I wonder what Lorina is doing these days?

When my kids were growing up I always made yorkshire pudding when I did a roast, but I have to admit that now that the kids are grown up, I don't really make it anymore. I still have my mother's recipe, but it just isn't used.

Just found this on Gossip Cop - sort of follows an earlier conversation regarding twigs:

FKA Twigs Racist Tweets

FKA Twigs has been bombarded with vile online messages in recent days, and the singer has had enough.

The performer, who is currently dating Robert Pattinson, took to Twitter on Sunday to speak out against the hate she’s receiving.

“I am genuinely shocked and disgusted at the amount of racism that has been infecting my account the past week,” tweeted FKA Twigs.

She went on, “Racism is unacceptable in the real world and it’s unacceptable online.”

Born Tahliah Debrett Barnett, the British star worked as a backup dancer before pursuing a singing career.

Her debut album, LP1, was released in August.

Earlier this month, it was shortlisted for the Mercury Prize, which honors the best British Album of the Year.

FKA Twigs was first linked to Pattinson over the summer.

They were photographed engaging in a little PDA last week in Venice Beach.
