Nearly as sweet as BB in his brown jim-jams I dare say.<br /><br />Plutarch - it was one of those things I grew up with, being from a family of Norwich origin, which I still repeat with truly monotonous regularity, but I may not have had it straight. I wonder if the French say something similar about M Maille? Do you use the mustard jar with its last lees to mix the dressing in? I do if I think of it. <br /><br />Jeremiah Coleman, his fame spread far and wide, made his fortune from the mustard that folks left on the side.

In fact I rather lazily threw out the Dijon pot earlier in the day with a good ham sandwich worth of mustard still in it, thereby confirming the idea that mustard manufacturers make money out of wasted mustard. I have yet to try it on a Marmite jar; I have a very large one on the go at the moment and I imagine it would be more than equal to the task of getting into those resiual corners!<br /><br />HHB - gosh, one little jar of Colemans last us forever, though we do get through quite a bit of Dijon, and have many glasses to show for it! What puzzles me is what you eat it on, being vegetarian? I can only really imagine it on ham or beef or garlic sausage-type of things. I guess I could use the orange flower water similarly, but I'm not that keen on the flavour anyway. It was given to me by someone who didn't want it who was presumably given it by someone else.<br /><br />BB - 4 - yes, and not at all unknown.<br />5 - no, it was quite off the cuff, just well-remembered. The irony is she could be one of the most glass-half-empty (though only of Blue Nun or maybe cherry brandy if things were getting really festive) and negative people I had the privilege to grow up with; the willed struggle against being judgemental, critical and misanthropic I have waged ever since is entirely in reaction to the tendency which I learned/inherited from her. Not that it's done me much good, life always lets you down in the end... <br />8 - you have a blue fleece pull-on robe with a hood? You must look so cute... But I thought you wore nightshirts?<br />12 - My first car was a brown mini. Bloody death trap.<br />18 - See above.<br />21 - I would quite like a good floury bap from an English baker. I occasionally succumb and buy wholewheat burger rolls in packets here but I don't know why as they're always revolting.<br />23 - no, I will continue to use 'dear little' as and when the fancy takes me. It is a collocation of which I am fond.

I hone when on the toilet and when driving. It doesn't always show.<br />8. Me too, at this very moment. As Erwin Shrödinger would say "a convergence". Very techie.<br />12.

I got through one jar in a week.<br /><br />Hmmmm, Orange flower water. Now if it had been Rose water, I would have had some ideas ( that's good in chilled rice pud!).herhimnbrynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01182397064631016552noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37070024.post-58765399091295286122011-11-23T22:38:11.089+01:002011-11-23T22:38:11.089+01:00i expect it would clean out the mustard pot too......i expect it would clean out the mustard pot too...Fire Birdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13518190677399410354noreply@blogger.com
