How are you eating during the virus lockdown?

HI:

Oh how I want buttermilk deep fried chicken but I'll make chicken stir fry instead. I really don't like stir fry; so I envision a lot of chewing in the next hour.:rolleyes:

cheers--Sharon
 
So jealous -- I WISH a food delivery was left on our porch by accident! The only thing that delivers here in this rural-ish area is pizza, and not the good pizza place either. We have ordered from the good place three times now (in 2 months) and picked it up, but for the most part it's all home made food here. I haven't had a Big Mac in yearrrrrrs, but if I found one on my front porch I'd snarf it down SO fast! :lickout:

Well... we didn’t get to keep it bc we saw our neighbor looking for it! I don’t know what was worse, the scare or having to give up the food:lol:
 
Jerk chicken..

Ohhh emmmm geeee. :lickout:
 
Omg! A few weeks ago our doorbell rang at 12:54 am and freaked us out!!! We saw a car leaving our driveway! We were half asleep and afraid to open the door bc it’s past midnight! Hubby finally opened the door after the car left, only to find McDonald’s bags on our doorstep. After a few minutes we saw our neighbor wandering around and we figured it was his. Lol. I laugh now but it freaked us out bc it was sooo late and hubby and I never do food delivery!

Wow, that was really late for a food delivery. It would have scared me too if the bell rang at that hour!

These are the "use everyday" sets. Hehe the display sets have a glass door!
 
breakfast was not all that yummy
i mean the bacon was good
but the bread was too crumbly
it was french sog bake not french toast bake
last night the mix tasted so good - like a strawberry milkshake

oh well moving right along ...

sorry if these pictures are huge but i was really curious if we had any the same
i hope to one day have a nice kitchen - id even rather have the origional 1950s kitchen than the cheap and tired 20 year old grey modular kitchen we have

oh boy i found an area of lower bookcase that sooo needs dusting

two must be still packed up - one is a deep burgundy mum gave me out of her china cabinet when i was a wee girl - for my own little china cabinet

Still looking for a project for that emu egg (made a xmas cake with it one year)

my favourite is the last one - as i love lavender roses and also the white one

@Daisys and Diamonds they are gorgeous

I especially love the cup in the 4th pic!!! Looooove bright colored roses and those are a perfect shade

Your plates are perfect for little nibbles during high tea!!!!!

thank you =)2
i like to think that is the Peace rose - my dad's favourite

i do have a royal Albert midnight rose tea set with lots of extras i started collecting when i brought the teapot when i was 15 or 16 - i used to say for when Princess Diana comes to tea - i now wish i had used it with my late MIL - its never been out of it's many boxes, mum even got me a matching tablecloth at duty free on the way to Norfolk island years ago - i envisage a hutch dresser kind of display arrangement
 
Carrots! Yummy, crisp baby carrots dipped in non-fat yogurt mixed with dry ranch dressing. This is my new favorite snack.

I love baby carrots and eat them as a snack every day too. Sweet and crunchy and satisfying. In fact I just enjoyed some.
 
@missy I just ate a whole avocado on toast...I can’t move. I didn’t know how to save the other half. OMG that was filling...:doh:It was delicious though! Next time I’ll save the other half and put it in a salad..haha
 
Oolong & dark chocolate were breakfast / judión & new potato stew with green fennel, garlic & rosemary was lunch / nisperos are dinner. Yesterday I left a dent at the fish market, tomorrow is another day.

I need some desert in this house [nothing keeps!]

Sounds yummy. :) Saving the other half would be insane.

Sticky pecan buns

Those sticky pecan buns, SWOON!!!!
This is going to sound crazy but I have to thank you for your yummy amazing delicious photos because it is almost like I can taste them they look so out of this world good. And while yes I would rather be there enjoying them in person this does not suck at all. Living vicariously through you and your mad cooking and baking skills @mellowyellowgirl :lickout:
 
Japanese curry cheese buns with crispy panko topping. Quite easy to make, surprisingly.

IMG_20200515_190755_120.jpgIMG_20200515_190755_121.jpg

Haha I was just going to make a comment about how much work that would entail!!!!!
 
Such yummy looking food here. :lickout:

To answer the original question: unfortunately, the same, but more so! :cry:
 
I got creative today. 21 grain bread turkey clubs. I caved and ordered deli turkey, baking it in the oven at 450 until it was golden brown to assure any germs burned off. A little mayo, avocado, bacon-bits, and iceberg lettuce. So simple, soooooo delicious.
 
Haha I was just going to make a comment about how much work that would entail!!!!!

I had leftover curry and then just made my standard shokupan recipe, so it wasn't too much of a challenge! Next time I want to try baked char siu (HK BBQ pork) buns as the overall concept seems the same.
 
HI:

Takeout sirloin burgers and fries!!!!!

cheers--Sharon
 
We've all stopped eating! We dropped to the second page!

Stir fried noodles with a hint of curry and crispy pork belly or Singapore noodles as we Aussies insist on calling it even though Singaporeans tell us there is no such thing!
