CHEESE

I wouldn't go so far as to say I'd kill for some - but I really really want some

sausage pizza

With considerable effort, I had to keep moving past a taco/fajita bar set up for a work related event last week.
I don't have a problem at home, but the office is a whole different story.

Fried chicken.

My husband thought it would be a good idea to make rabbit curry this week (he had to buy the rabbit, since we don't raise them anymore) and it's a two day affair. So my house smells like curry stew for two days now. I prefer beef curry stew, but I really love it and I only make it rarely, so I must say, it's been on my mind for a couple of days!

Would you believe the only time I have made curry is during Lent, using only vegetables?

I should! My favorite part of beef curry is actually the potatoes taking on the curry and apple flavors. (I make a sweet Japanese-style curry with apples.) Why didn't I think of that?

The beef I use actually disintegrates into strings, so I probably wouldn't miss it. That's probably actually why I like it best, since I don't really prefer the chunks when I use other meats.

Very much a "duh" moment, lol. Thanks!

Thai curry with veggies and coconut milk is great. I'm starting to love coconut milk in iced coffee with a bit of honey as well.

CHEESE

I went to a school event with my son this evening. They served cheese and biscuits and wine - I nibbled on the grapes.

 

[Braydeno]

a nice hot cup of coffee, 'n a hunk of cheddar cheese, with a honey ham filled croissant, mmmm.

 

[Anhelyna]

THAT'S SHEER DOWNRIGHT CRUELTY !!

Coming in here - mentioning all those lovely things and all we can have is the coffee !!

Aequum non est !

 

[ArmyMatt]

I am usually tempted, one of these Bright Weeks, to pull a Costanza and eat a block of cheese the size of a car battery

 

[Anhelyna]

Couldn't manage as such cheese as that - but I'll certainly have some every day

Along with other nice stuffs

I followed someone's suggestions on the forums for a beer I might like. Last week they were buy one get one free at Publix, so I bought two six packs. Tonight my husband chilled one, and I did have a sip.

I don't like beer, but this was pretty good - a second's beer taste, but lighter, followed with a raspberry aftertaste. I could drink that, and it wouldn't be far down my preference list of all beverages, both regular and alcoholic.

But .... but ..... but ....... I know some say beer is "liquid bread" but I never asked if it was allowed. I would have guessed it was maybe like wine. If I actually ASK my SF he will probably say no, since my fasting is light anyway. And by Pascha, my husband might have finished them off.

My brother did that once when we were kids. He got a tummy ache ...

(And I got in trouble for letting him do it, though I wasn't in the room when he did.)

[craving] a good piece of warm, well-buttered bread. [/craving]

My daughter made lenten friendly cornbread muffins. So we had pinto beans, cornbread, with diced pepper and onion. It was really great but see craving above.

oh I am sure I would regret it, but I think it'd be a good pain

I want some Spicy Nachos ::drool::

 

[Bessie]

I'm also struggling with missing cheese. I know the thing I miss the most is the thing I most need to do without, but, wow. I want it. That is all.

Oh....I thought you were going to say you had the temptation to eat an eclair out of the trash can!
