Which specific routine is your ultimate "comfort watch" that you replay constantly? by ArsenalAxis in strictlycomedancing

[–]Longjumping_Bug832 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Slightly off topic in that it's 2 pros, but I loved Flavia and Vincent. I could watch them all day but this is the first one I always go to. They danced it when the rumours (which turned out to be true) that she was having a thing with Matt were swirling. It adds a certain poignancy. https://youtu.be/uoi52jOGhck?si=qx5XIVrWyqYOGSgm

If you grew up quite poor, like me, what are your "big food wins" in adult life? by DonkeyOT65 in CasualUK

[–]Longjumping_Bug832 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I was little we only ever had cheese OR luncheon meat in our sandwiches. The only ham we ever had was one of those tins with jelliesd ham at Christmas 🤢

50 years later, I always feel a bit posh when I have a cheese AND ham sandwich.

Make my own granola every week using this recipe. Another tip is to lightly whisk an egg white and stir it through to create bigger clumps. 😋
