I know I do.
Sometimes nicely; sometimes to deal with, or even just avoid, the odd demon that surfaces from time to time.
As some of you know, I've only recently taken to entertaining at home.
Now - it's in my nature (frogs and scorpions) to try to give people what they want, so I have no problem with "getting things in" that I would not normally have in the house for myself. Normally, but not limited to, food and drink.
So - this morning, I decided that I'd have 3 or 4 rounds of toast with a cup of tea. Ok - I have a 4 slice toaster, so it was 4 slices. The first three being things I would normally have in.
1. Brittany Butter with Sea Salt Crystals.
2. A quite coarse french farmhouse pate.
3. Philidelphia soft cheese.
hmmmm. What should I try for slice 4 ?
As I'm spreading, waiting for the kettle, and thinking about trying something new; the phone rings. Pick up phone. Phone stops ringing. Conversation gets a little "flirty" - db's mind begins to wander.
Bearing in mind, it's a given that I don't multi-task too well.
Decide, in the middle of the flirt; to try Marmite (:shock
Spread what I just assume to be Marmite on the toast, mash the tea.
Made arrangements on the phone, finish call, settle outside for tea and toast.
Philly - mmmm. Soft, creamy.
Butter - mmm. Sweet, yet slighty salty.
Pate - mmm. Coarse, just rich enough, very tasty. (I hate bland food)
"Marmite" - eeeuuuw :shock: I look at it after a horrible taste develops in my mouth. Now - I know the colour of marmite, and this just isn't it.
I go back to the cupboard, and sat next to the jar of "some-one elses" Marmite is . . . . . . .
a jar of Nutella, Hazelnut Chocolate Spread ! ! ! ! ! ! !
Girls ? ? ? How can you ? ? ? ?
Chocolate??? On toast???
