We had homemade meat and potato pie last night for our tea. None of that Dinner or Supper stuff. Supper is what you eat before you retire for the evening or go to bed.
Monday night is "Stodge Night" during winter. There is nothing better than sitting down to a good hearty meal after a good hike or saunter, potting up in the polytunnel or after some gardening outside. If conditions permit. It's rain stopped play here at the moment after the frost.
The wife baked a meat and potato pie in our Stanley Mourne number 7 solid fuel range:
Any one else make homemade pies?
Tea, dinner, supper. It's a minefield!
ReplyDeleteAs a kid we had our tea when we got home from school, it was usually something on toast. As working adults we had our dinner in the evening when we got home from work, with a lunch break at midday to eat our sandwiches. We never had supper in those days, that was too posh.
When we moved here our friends laughed at us for calling our evening meal dinner. They had dinner at lunchtime and supper in the evening.
It is all so very complicated!
You explain it very well JayCee. I always thought lunch was when you had a break in the morning. Can you get good pies on the Isle of Man?
ReplyDeleteOoh, yes. There is a very good local pie maker called Morgans. They make really good, meaty pies Which P loves, although I can't eat pastry because of the cholesterol. They are not cheap but I get them as a special treat for him now and then. His favourite is the beef and ale.
DeleteI will have to Google Morgans pies. Beef and ale sounds great. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteGosh yes. I live pies of any sort. Anything encased in pastry has got to be good. I make my own pastry but am not against ready frozen. Puff pastry and mince meat and pities and ketchup. Yum. Long live stodge.
ReplyDeleteI've never eaten mushy peas though
Pities??? Potatoes!!!
DeleteYou "live" pies Local Alien? Most people just "like" them! Lay off the cooking sherry my dear!
DeleteThere are lots of mushy peas recipes on the web LA. I think they are marrow fat peas soaked in bicarbonate of soda. Pies are great especially at this time of year when its days of cold and mizzle here in Ireland. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteIs meat and potato pie an aphrodisiac? I am with you on the term "tea". You have dinner in the middle of the day and "lunch" is just a word that rhymes with "bunch".
ReplyDeletePerhaps for some people YP. Yes we are in total agreement on those meal terms.
ReplyDeleteMaking a beef pot pie tonight, as a matter of fact!
ReplyDeleteIt’s obvious some patients with herpes are being enslaved to the antiviral and other supplementary Orthodox medicine just to help suppress the virus and not a cure. I have been with the virus since 2016 until I was introduced by a blogger who also narrated her story online on how she was cured of Genital Herpes after using Dr Noah Herbal Medicine. This is a year and 2 weeks since I was delivered from genital Herpes. All thanks to God for using this Great herbalist to heal me. I have promised to keep telling good things about Dr Noah.
