Hospital lunch today, chicken schnitzel with corn relish on the side, potato, carrots, baby corn and broccoli. Wholemeal dinner roll with butter. Trifle. I want to take the chef home with me.

One of my sisters is in hospital out on the coast; fell and has something called a T-12 compression fracture. Her emails indicate she is zoned on painkillers, and she's been sending pics of hospital food. Does this look like your chicken schnitzel?

Actually looks pretty good for hospital food.

The last time I was in hospital (2012) I spent 6 weeks there, and boy was the food ever bad, especially on Thursday when it was this fish covered in some sort of creme sauce, luckily the nursing station had semi decent sandwiches they would give out on request.

The picture there you posted, looks pretty tasty.

Haven't eaten in 24 hours so sausages and eggs on toast with baked beans and a vodka and tonic; I shoot a hole in holistic.

I was in Scotland this weekend and on the drive home we stopped at Cairn Lodge services which is a sister operation of the Tebay Services. Very nice grub. I had a haggis Scotch egg. The haggis was lovely and the egg was still runny. Perfect.

Rearranged the freezer this morning to fit in some meat, found half a packet of little steak pies that I bought a few months ago for a visitor. Not something we usually eat but since the box wouldn't fit back in.......:angel_smile: Very yum!

HID said bread is the new asbestos. It sounds delicious to me.

Had to look that word up - I sort of understand the meaning but don't get the relevance to my post. Must be getting old! (ps no need to explain, I'd like to retain what little innocence I have) :angel:

I hope you don't dunk. My MIL occasionally dunks buttered toast. I'll dunk a sandwich or toast in soup but not tea/coffee.

It was only a small turkey yesterday and it's the cold (Boxing Day) version today. After setting aside enough for dinner tonight, if there's enough spare, it'll be a turkey sandwich for lunch, maybe with some turkey soup from the carcass.

Me too, I misspelled it, it should be 'giggity'.

This way we get a Sunday roast and then Turkey (still) today.
On CBC radio this morning they said that many actually have their Turkey on the Sunday, so I'm just Canadianised. :lol:
