Oh dear, Lying Larry forgot one member of his imaginary family—the Golden Retriever! Poor Fido can eat the breadcrusts the humans throw away, I suppose but that is not a good diet or a sufficient diet for a big dog, even an imaginary one!

BUSTED!

I have bought some great books at Vinnies and Salvos. I have to laugh at all the vegetarian or fat free cookbooks got donated looking brand new Grin

My sister actually bought me a leather coat there for $1! come in handy when the cold weather starts.

Mum bought me a big pan for $4.00 from Salvos that I use only for preserving/jam making etc—never burned nothing in that pan!

I do have a large pan that I do not remember buying but I am going to use it for some part mash and small brews. It was in the shed at Mum’s house so maybe I didn’t buy it myself but very handy anyway. Hmmm I may have bought it 30 years or so ago for part mash brewing (a small, 3kg, mash supplemented with liquid or dry malt extract.

Ha! Early on in the shop this old duck would come into my shop and buy 1Kg of light liquid malt extract. I did ask her how she used it—as liquid sugar “and when nobody was around I would take a spoon full and down the hatch it went!” Grin

Light liquid malt instead of golden syrup might make a radical Anzac biscuit!

good stuff gordon.

i find that certain combos give you a good flow of energy

avacado and salmon

banana and cashews

eggs and ham

tuna and sweet potato.

if ive had a really big day, i will grab some chicken (just any bits) , a bit of bacon, a couple of eggs, some tomatos, some mushrooms, some onion and fry the whole lot up in olive oil and hit with the salt. and then when you get thirsty 30 minutes later, a nig iced water with 2 beroccas.

when you work hard physically , dont undo the good work by chowing down on a bunch of processed carbs.

my go to meal at the pub is always the ceasar salad and i think i have eaten several thousand of them but chuck the croutons out Wink

Something I've been eating a lot lately, the staple of body builders world wide.
Poached chicken breast and boiled potatoes. I poach the chicken first then boil the potatoes in the same water. I dunno why but I can eat that 5 days a week and not get sick of it.

Of course I accompany it with limitless amounts of salad and about 3 bits of fruit with greek yogurt.

But yeah, when people complain about the cost of groceries I feel unaffected because I mostly buy FOOD not groceries.

honestly gordon,

food is a tiny cost for most people.

they blow 10 grand on a set of meg wheels or 10 grand on a tattoo collection or 10 grand on smokes or booze per year but cant afford to buy a dozen eggs, some chicken breast and some tins of 99c tuna.

i'm calling BS .

i dont even look at the supermarket bill.

it comes out of petty cash

Do you drink, oh what do they call it, a protein shake with dried corn syrup added? Dried corn syrup is sold a lot by cheap nasty homebrew shops but I would not have it in MY shop—puts a disgusting taste in a beer but adds body because it is not very fermentable.

Anyway, this day a guy walks in my door—sort of sideways through the half door I have open—very broad shoulders you know. Asks for that, I say I don’t have it but can get it—hey, he doesn’t want it for brewing so who cares? My supplier, who knows my thoughts on DCS was VERY surprised to get an order from me for 5Kg of the stuff Grin
