The Weekly Friday Feast

NikNikSenior Contributor

The Weekly Friday Feast

Thank goodness it's Friday (or TGIF as some say!)

We thought we would start a thread where we could come together every Friday and "share a meal" and debrief about our week.

To participate, there are 2 requirements -

1) Bring a (virtual) plate of food

2) Bring a topic of discussion

So pull up a virtual chair, post a picture or description of what (virtual) dish you're bringing along and say hi and let us know how your week was.

Looking forward to seeing you at our first Friday Feast!

Chat soon 🙂

Re: The Weekly Friday Feast

I thought I'd give the Friday Feast a try, since my son is busy snap chatting with his friends!
I got cashew, chilli and pork stir fry, it was yummy!
It definitely has been cold here all week, nothing like the blue mountains, I imagine?
I've got a border collie X kelpie and I'm looking after a Jack Russell, who is resting on my feet keeping me warm. It's just what I need after a pretty tough time 🙂

@Nin the Blue Mountains is stunning! I love it here. Have you visited it before? Your dog(s) sound so cute! I bet the border collie/kelpie cross must be smart and active? How old are they.

@Jacques so glad that you could make it tonight. I feel like I've not seen you in ages! Sorry to hear that your week has been distressing. What are you to this weekend? Any home repairs? Btw, the struddle look AMAZINGLY yummy.

Hi everyone @Jacques @CherryBomb @Nin @Former-Member @BlueBay and others here by now. Dinner here was so yummy tonight (even if I do say so myself!) I had a friend over and we had a spirali pasta dish with smoked salmon, capers and dill in a white wine and cream sauce. First time I've made it and it was all I hoped for. Too full for desert at this stage! My guest went back for more 3 times so I'm guessing she thought it was ok too 🙂

Re: The Weekly Friday Feast

I know @CherryBomb, i have not had the time to come onto SANE forums lately, i am helping two friends with SH and SI, one tried to take their life last week 😞

I seem to spend all my time now supporting them. This weekend, i am making a big pot of ham and lentil soup and fitting a new storm water drain to my rain water tank.

I know i have not had Struddel in ages, i thought it would be a nice thing to bring to a cold night, it is freezing and wet in CW NSW, how is it in the blue mountains?

I'm in tonight. We're having vege burgers. I'm still trying to cope with the flu.

My teenage kids have had me watching Harry Potter films this afternoon.

@CherryBomb
My kelpie is 2 1/2 and full of energy. I wrote a poem yesterday about her if you want to have a read. Its under "Silenus post writing as a form of therapy. "

Re: The Weekly Friday Feast

Wow @eth that sounds like some gormet stuff. I got food envy. Are you sure you don't want a slice of struddle? It's virtual remember?

@Angels333 sorry to hear you're struggling with the flu. Drink lots of tea, and eat soup. Fluids and rest. Staying in and watching movies sounds good. What are you up to this weekend?

@Jacques your week sounds like it was heavy. You're a great friend to other people. I hope that you can be a friend you to, and that you take some time to care for you. It's good you're here! Making yourself some good food is also a good thing. I hope you're doing ok. **hugs**
