Is there such a thing as only a hint of cinnamon? Like a subtle hit over the head with a breeze block and asking "did you get the hint?" :rofl:

Back on the subject of cheese, Sobey's Sensations aged cheddar is consistently good, but also the same price as imported British cheddar.

It's certainly stacks up well against the chunk of Collier's Welsh Cheddar I invested in at Costco.

Tonight, pork loin with a nice brandy and peppercorn sauce....and!!! Masquerade potatoes! They are lovely, new, for us here, and from the Superstore. So far I've had them mashed and roasted and they were great, but tonight I'm going for baked! Try them if they come to your neck of the woods...well worth it.

Presumably as an amuse bouche- what are you eating for tea?

I had sausages and mashed potatoes, swimming in onion gravy.
Edit: Well, more covered than swimming really, looked a bit like Mt Fuji.

Chicken wings, dosed with olive oil, s&p, chili powder, oregano leaves, garlic, cumin, then wrapped in bacon and baked. I heated Buffalo wing sauce and added a little shot of Jim Beam Black until just bubbling, had some dipped in that and some dipped in blue cheese dressing. Some I dipped in both.

Well this cheered us up a little- M&S little shop- Venison hotpot for us, Stonebaked smoky fajita chicken pizza for puplet and a light Cava for Snoop and a Peroni for me given that we have now been up about 28 hours with about an hours sleep on the plane - the rest are just nice goodies - weird split (largish) marmite pot as pano photo
