I usually drive to Rockford once a week to see family, shop at Sam's and find all of the other things I need that I can't find around here. It's about 45 minutes to an hour long drive.
Yeah, I know. That's why I never go there! If I had known that, I might have tried hitching a ride with you on one of your trips so I could get to a decent yarn store, LOL!

I am fairly sure that the use of "bacon" and "Boca burger" in the same paragraph is a violation of some law or another (quite possibly a violation of the laws of physics). However, a grilled bacon and cheese sandwich sounds so heavenly that I (and Einstein) forgive you. (I have added bacon to the shopping list since I have never had such a thing before.)

Oh sure. This is payback isn't? Now I'll be thinking about adding Eggos to the shopping list. An acquired taste I suspect.

Yep, added bacon too. And I might make a bacon/cheese sandwich on friday (when I have lunch at home instead of at work).

Tonight: pancakes, with cheese and bacon, apple and raisins and maybe a plain one with syrup! It'll be the first time we'll be trying to bake them on an open fire though... So, we'll have to see how it goes

You have to let us know how the open fire pancakes turned out.

An I suddenly got a craving for some of that pie wifey did last friday. Filled with chanterelle's and "västerbottens ost" which is a really good brand of swedish cheese. Yummy yum yum... washed down with a Chilean shiraz.

Oh god, now I'm hungry and it's likte three hours to lunch time...

Mmmmm Pineapple Fritters... It must have been about 20 years since I had this delicacy.

Pineapple rings dipped in (fish) batter and deep fried.

These used to cost me 20p a ring from the local Chippy. Almost became part of my staple diet! I never was keen on the Banana Fritters though!

Now, how can I replicate this at home without a)using too much oil, b)ruining a saucepan and c)without the wife knowing! It is a very rare occurrence to fry anything in our house let alone deep fry it (never done that!)

I've just looked up a recipe for Chocolate Brownies - something I love but for some reason have never made. I found a really interesting sounding one -

Black Pepper Brownies

These sound so intriguing that I may have to make some (just need to get pretty much all the ingredients and avoid telling the wife I am putting pepper into a cake!)

[QUOTE=vivaldirules;559620]You've reminded me of the grilled bacon and cheese sandwiches my mother used to make./QUOTE]

And for some reason this reminded me of Bacon Grill. I used to love that tinned goodiness (we used to get it in ration packs when I was in the Cadets). I recently found a tin in the local pound shop but the wife wouldn't let me buy it because it contains mechanically recovered meat! It was 3 for a pound as well....

Ah well I can just dream.

And I must stop reading this thread - it is making me want more and more things I just can't have!

It worked like a charm! Too bad my card reader suddenly refuses to read the card from my camera, otherwise I'd be posting pictures now...

We learned two things: 1: put some oil on first, otherwise it won't even look like pancake (but it will taste like one) and 2: make sure the fire isn't too hot, the bottom will almost burnt before the top has dried enough to turn the pancake around.

Filled pancakes work the best: first layer rather thick, put the cheese and bacon on (one advantage of having a large baking area is you can pre-bake the bacon while baking the pancake) and top it off with some more batter. Then turn it around and put some colour on the top layer. Yummie!

Pictures when I can get them off my card...
