How would someone know that if nothing (I just wanted to say "nothing" three times, the word - not the nothing-ness -although this is quite possibly the most NOTHING comment possible -oooh now I can start with repetitions of forms of possible) what was I saying? <br /><br />oh well, anyway - there was freaking raw saussage around these eggs and it was our main course (why did we not make a roast - oh, i suppose the yorkshire puds would have given away the oven situation)...<br /><br />memories of a time long gone, before the knight was bald and the little lass fully discovered the magic of the crock pot.<br /><br /><br />NOTE: I have tried to type the secret code (below) four times now - bleh! why can't i decipher?<br />suzQ!https://www.blogger.com/profile/14906692753499476551noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33720146.post-88157264518556374452013-04-02T08:21:05.902-04:002013-04-02T08:21:05.902-04:00Love this post. I often saw scotch eggs in the sup...Love this post. I often saw scotch eggs in the supermarket while living in England, but never actually ventured to buy some. But they sound rather easy to make - and now that you've described what it involves . . . sounds kinda tasty! I don't know about all those new takes, but your traditional version sounds like a nice food to investigate. ~CatherineCatherinehttp://www.facingcancer.ca/noreply@blogger.com
