h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

The only problem is... now I've found this new way to drink Champaign, I'll want to drink it that* way all the time <

Mashed potato! Mashed potato! I don't know why that hadn't occured to me before...
I need to construct another list of new foods... For monday... I think we'll do two courses, a savory, and then a sweet course
so...
mashed potato...
chillies.
and....

Dessert will I think ahve to include :
custard, and champaign... I know I've already tried them... but they were rather good.... maybe some strawberries and proper*cream too if I can get them

I really think I've found my vocation in life can't believe I'd not thought of mashed potato before ooo.... how about mashed potato, gravey, and... hmmm.... dunno... and chilies, of course, if Ican persuade my ... assistant to do the chilies, I don't think anyone who's saine would consider it an idea to even contemplate using chilies... but... well its been said so now I feel it must*be done... or... well... you only really regrette the stuff you never*do...
this could be a new olympic sport

Chillies are not good darling, just believe me

don't go anywhere near them!

I love chillies even raw... I once ate a bag of large raw chilies on the train... well the train was delayed by like hours... and the only thing I had on me was a large bag of chilies I'd got from a market stall surely it can't be ... hmmm.... actually.... I'm remember an incident involing my preparing food... and then popping off up to teh loo without first* washign my hands... Hmmm.... yeh... but.... but... it might... Hmmm.... you really think I should ditch the hchillies from the menu?

Yes, a similar mishap has befallen me, when a delightful man had been cooking a thai green curry, with fresh chilli. It did quite spoil the moment, for a while

But... I dunno... chilies might work... it might be good... True it might be painful... but like not all* pain is bad all* the time... it might... I dunno.... work... I'm beginning to wish no one had suggested that one as an idea

What eedjit suggested chillies? Not just chillies, but habaneros? That's just irresponsible! Let's hunt that reprobate down and give him the beating he deserves...

Oh, wait....

But seriously.... I didn't mean you to take the suggestion of habaneros seriously... But if you do, let us all know how much that hurts.

I'm still so so so so so* tempted to try.... And, lets face it, I'm not exactly dead-set against the idea of 'pain' anyhow
It really was such an insanely rediculus idea that I just had* to take it seriously ... I really do have far too much time on my hands, don't i?

Just step away from that chilli, 2legs

I'm such a 'kid'..... the more I hear people telling me to step away from the chilie, the more tempted I am to rush to the fridge right away...

well if you do accidentally get some on your skin, anywhere, chilli apparently dissolves in alcohol, not water. So vodka, or the aforementioned champagne might just take the sting out.

so... perhaps the chilies could form part of an earlier 'course', with dessert some time afterwards, followed by drinks oooo beer... maybe beer could be somethign to try....

Well... It was only going to be a matter of time, once chilies had been suggested... So, in order than no one else ever needs to repeat the experimet, I can report that on initial evaluation of the foodsex potential of chili peppers, experimentation on a single subject, has revealed... perhaps not supprisingly... that its probably the worse idea I've ever either had, or taken up from a suggestion
err... how do you stop the pain?
So... what should I experiment with next? oo .. no... thats just not nice.

stinging nettles can be used as spinach

Ooo stinging nettles... now theres an idea Oh no.... not again
can still just* feel the effect of the chilli experiment... Its quite resiliant to getting rid of the effect isn't it?

Still trying to finalise tommorrows list of food sorts to use...

Stinging nettles are food?

nettle tea... nettle soup, and there is a cheese which is wrapped in stinging nettles and you eat them as you eat slices of the cheese.... and you don't get stung I was more... err kinda thinking you could use fresh stinging nettles to ... err sensatise certain parts of the body... to err heighten the ... err feelings of err... other things you might want to have done to them...

And here I was afraid I wasn't going to learn anything new today.

there is always* room to learn something new... I discovered something quite interesting about leather belts today...
